What is HEX?

HEX is a six-digit numerical system that represents color. Designers use it as their main coding system to describe screen colors for web development and graphic design applications. The HEX color system displays three pairs of characters that show the intensity levels of red (R), green (G) and blue (B) value components in a given color shade.

Example:

  • #FF5733 → A shade of orange
  • #008080 → Teal

What is Pantone?

The Pantone standardized color matching system (PMS) functions in printing, manufacturing, and branding processes. Pantone colors maintain consistency in physical materials, including paper, fabric and plastic, because they operate independently from an on-screen display, unlike HEX colors. Designers and printers can replicate Pantone colors with precision because every color in the system uses a distinctive code.

Example:

  • Pantone 485 C → Bright Red
  • Pantone 293 C → Vivid Blue
