Pantone is a global color standard system used to precisely identify, match, and reproduce colors across different industries and materials.
Pantone Matching System (PMS): A numbered color system (for example, Pantone 186 C) that ensures the same color looks the same no matter where it’s printed or produced.
Universal reference: Designers, printers, fashion brands, and manufacturers use Pantone codes to communicate color without confusion.
Material-specific colors: Pantone provides colors for print (coated/uncoated paper), textiles, plastics, paint, and more.
