The Pantone color language supports all industries where color plays an important role - from textiles, fashion and cosmetics to interior design, architecture and industrial design. There are more than 10 000 color standards for diverse media, including printing, textiles, plastics, pigments and coatings. Pantone standards are available in both digital and physical form.
Graphic designers and print service providers have a simple, precise and global language for color communication. The system includes over 2300 colors with CMYK, HTML and RGB values for the Pantone Matching System (PMS) as well as spot and special colors.
Pantone Connect is a digital platform that gives designers, producers and brand managers exclusive access to over 15 000 Pantone colors. Many helpful tools for creating, sharing and saving smart palettes are included. All market-relevant Pantone colors are integrated into the design workflow and can be used in Adobe design programs.
