RAL 240 30 30
Rich Cinnabar
RAL 240 30 30 Rich Cinnabar is positioned at hue 240, lightness 30, and chroma 30, a deep high-chroma red-orange that channels the concentrated fire of cinnabar mineral and the molten glow of copper in a crucible. It is specified for luxury automotive accent coatings, gallery feature wall finishes, and premium brand identity elements. The strong chroma at low lightness produces a colour of mineral intensity and dramatic warmth, recalling the prized pigments of ancient Chinese lacquerwork.
