RAL 030 75 35 Light Cantaloupe sits at hue 030, lightness 75, and chroma 35, a warm luminous orange that captures the glow of ripe cantaloupe melon. It is chosen for resort hotel interiors, fashion retail display environments, and contemporary residential accent walls. The moderate chroma at high lightness creates a colour that is cheerful, inviting, and distinctly summery.
