What is Pantone?//
Pantone is a globally recognised colour reference system. Pantone swatches are a series of colours that each have their own unique colour code. This means that designers and printers around the world will all understand the Pantone system and can send their work almost anywhere in the world to be printed.
'The Pantone Color Matching System is largely a standardized color reproduction system. By standardizing the colors, different manufacturers in different locations can all refer to the Pantone system to make sure colors match without direct contact with one another.' // Wikipedia
These are some examples of the Pantone Swatch books, each book can cost around £300- £400 and a small set of books can cost around £1200. There are several types of books as there are different types of colour swatches. Metallic, coated, uncoated etc, again these all have a different unique code and come together in seperate books.
