RAL
Match RAL standard colors to retail paint brands like Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Behr
About RAL
RAL is the European standard color matching system, originating in Germany in 1927. Unlike paint brands, RAL defines standardized color codes used globally across industries — architecture, automotive, industrial coatings, powder coating, and manufacturing. When you specify a RAL color, any manufacturer can produce an exact match.
The RAL Classic collection contains 216 colors, each identified by a 4-digit code. The system also includes RAL Design System Plus (1,825 colors) and RAL Effect (490 colors including metallics). RAL colors are the go-to standard for European architecture, windows, doors, facades, and industrial applications.
