RAL 040 60 45
Bright Amber
RAL 040 60 45 Bright Amber is positioned at hue 040, lightness 60, and chroma 45, a lively saturated orange-yellow that radiates the golden glow of polished amber. It is widely used for exhibition graphic panels, creative studio feature walls, and dynamic retail environment features. The elevated lightness combined with strong chroma produces a colour that feels both luxurious and optimistic.
