RAL is a colour management system used in Europe that is created and administered by the German RAL gGmbH [de][1] (RAL non-profit LLC), which is a subsidiary of the German RAL Institute [de]. In colloquial speech, RAL refers to the RAL Classic system, mainly used for varnish and powder coating, but now plastics as well. Approved RAL products are provided with a hologram to make unauthorised versions difficult to produce. Imitations may show different hue and colour when observed under various light sources.
