RAL 6005
Moss Green
RAL 6005 Moss Green is arguably the most widely used green in European architectural coatings, serving as the default choice for garden gates, fencing, park benches, and traditional metalwork across the continent. This classic dark green has been a staple of residential and municipal infrastructure for generations, blending naturally with garden landscapes and parkland settings. Moss Green delivers excellent long-term color stability in exterior powder coatings and is available from virtually every coating manufacturer.
