RAL color pattern

At Metalmix we use polyester powder paints accordingly to RAL pattern (Reichs-Ausschuβ für Lieferbedingungen) with Qualicoat certificate and to NCS pattern (Natural Color System).

RAL is the international system of colour matching created especially for:

• powder paints,
• aerosol paint for automotive industry,
• self-adhesive PVC foils. 
  
  

RAL is also widely used in industry and architecture.

How to read colour names from RAL pallet?

You can recognize RAL Classic pallet thanks to symbol: RAL + four digits (f.ex. RAL 3014). Two first digits are a code of the shades of the main hue (f.ex. blue hues, brown hues ...), two others digits  concern the shade, what we present here below.

RAL CLASSIC pattern:

At Metalmix powder paints are applied on the surface of parts with GEMA applicator and hardened (in the oven) in temperatures from 140 up to 200°C. Our customers can adapt our large pallet of colours accordingly to their individual needs.

Types of coatings available at Metalmix:

• smooth: ideal for homogeneous aspect - from shiny to deeply mat
• structural: available in matte version, satin or shiny from fine to thick structure.
  
  

NCS is a system of colours identification based on four elementary colours:

• red (R)
• yellow (Y)
• blue (B)
• and green (G).
  
  

These colours are a base for all colour hues and nuances in NCS system which counts actually more than 2000! In NCS system each colour is described with 2 marks. First of them describes how much a colour is close to one of the pure colours (R, Y, B or G), second one describes how much a colour is close to gray hue.
