PANTONE for the Product Design Workflow

If you are involved in home design, consumer electronics, decorative cosmetics, or toys, the Pantone Fashion, Home +Interiors System is for you!

The 2534 Pantone Colours for Product Design are available in three versions: varnish coating on paper, as cotton textiles, and as paints on plastic. To ensure the best visual match, we recommend using the material format that most closely matches your end application.

Pantone's Paint Colour is the heart of product design. It is designed to represent the appearance of colour on a product. Paint Colour is the tool for understanding colour achievability and specifying colours for paints, coatings, pigments, textiles and leather applications. Whether you're on the go or in the office, Pantone's FHI Guides are available in both a handy fan format and a removable chip book format .

If you work with textiles, use the Cotton Guide! The cotton colours are made with globally available dyes that are formulated for colour fastness and colour consistency.
