RAL 210 60 30

Bright Poppy

RAL 210 60 30 Bright Poppy is positioned at hue 210, lightness 60, and chroma 30, a vivid high-chroma warm pink that radiates the fresh brilliance of field poppies and the warm glow of red spinel in sunlight. 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 warm and energetically optimistic.
