RAL 070 40 45

Vivid Avocado

RAL 070 40 45 Vivid Avocado is defined by hue 070, lightness 40, and chroma 45, a bold high-chroma mid-dark green-yellow that captures the intensity of ripe avocado flesh and fresh wasabi. Designers choose it for organic brand accent elements, garden architectural features, and eco-resort pathway markers. The strong chroma at moderate-dark lightness delivers a colour that is both natural and strikingly vivid.
