New RAL Colours

Did you know that the RAL colour collection has been expanded?

RAL have three ranges of colours for different end uses: Classic, Design and Effect.

Updated a few years ago with 200 extra colours the RAL Design range has a total of 1825 colours for architecture, interior and decorative design.

Now it is the turn of the RAL Classic range to be expanded!

New RAL colours in RAL Classic range

The RAL Classic range began with 213 colours for industrial and automotive design to specify colour of paint and powder coat. This number remained static for many years until two further colours were developed in response to demand.

The added colours were the signature RAL Orange colour (RAL Orange 2017) and Cleanroom White 9012 for laboratories. These have now been added to most versions of the RAL Classic book range – except for RAL K1 which still has 213 colours.

Now RAL’s Classic range has grown again with the new addition of RAL Fibrous Green 6039. Recently developed by RAL in cooperation with the VDE = Association for Electrical, Electronic & Information Technologies. The new colour can be ordered immediately as a colour primary standard card as well as a RAL CLASSIC K4 single A4 sheet.

RAL Fibrous Green 6039 is now available in many RAL Classic books and integration will continue when RAL manufacture new stock of the books. For now find it in the RAL K6 Box and the RAL K5 Semi matt and K7.

New Product in RAL Effect

The RAL Effect range comprises 490 colours of which 70 are metallic effect shades and the other 420 are coordinating non metallics. For the past two years only the RAL Effect E4 guide has been available but now the RAL Effect E3 guide is back by popular demand! E4 contains only the 70 metallic colours but E3 has all 490 colours.
