Pantone: Color Accuracy for Graphic Design & Print

Pantone guides are a reference point for color selection in professional environments, especially when consistency is required across different materials and production processes. They help designers, printers and agencies "speak the same language" in color, reducing deviations from screen to final print. They are particularly useful in projects with strict specifications (logos, corporate identity, packaging), where the correct shade must remain consistent from proof to production.

Pantone Formula Guide (Coated / Uncoated)

The Pantone Formula Guide is the classic spot/solid color guide, designed to show the appearance of Pantone colors on coated and uncoated paper. Each color is accompanied by a code and ink formulations so that a printer can consistently reproduce the shade on press.

Pantone Color Bridge (Coated / Uncoated)

The Pantone Color Bridge It is used when a "bridge" is needed from a Pantone spot color to the closest CMYK equivalent for process printing. This allows the designer to see side-by-side the performance of the spot color and how it translates to CMYK (and often to RGB/HTML for digital applications), allowing for more confident decisions in multi-channel brand applications.

Pantone Fashion, Home + Interiors (FHI) Guides

For applications in textiles, fashion and interiors, the Pantone FHI Tools (e.g. Cotton Planner / Cotton Chip Set) support color selection and specification on material (cotton), not just paper. This helps production and design teams make more reliable matching across samples, approvals, and final product, especially when the substrate strongly influences color perception.
