FHI - do you need to update?

We love that you love your guides and books from Pantone. However, color guides and reference books don’t last forever. By updating periodically, you can ensure you have access to the widest variety of trend colors with the most accurate representation of achievable color. Unfortunately, even the best care in the world won’t prevent color from fading from exposure to light and moisture. Regular handling of pages, chips and textile swatches means that pigments can be smeared or altered. But, the most common reason for updating guides is to gain access to the most up-to-date, trend-driven Pantone Fashion, Home + Interiors Colors and improved product formats. That’s why we recommend replacing your guides every 12 - 18 months, depending on your usage case and storage habits.

DO YOUR BOOKS LOOK LIKE THIS?

If you are still using these products, not only are you missing 595 Pantone Colors; these books do not have the improved chromatic layout for all 2,310 colors.

Pantone’s 2003 edition marked the introduction of TPX, a complimentary guide representing Pantone Textile colors on paper, to enable designers to visualize color matches for hard goods, cosmetics, housewares, fashion accessories, furniture and toys.

 
     
     

STILL HAVE THESE BOOKS?

In 2011, we introduced 175 new colors. If you are using these guides, you are missing 385 colors from the complete 2,310 Fashion, Home + Interiors color palette.

More about the 2011 New Colors:
Those 175 new colors represented permanent additions to the Pantone Fashion, Home + Interiors Color System. All color families were expanded to include: a broader range of nuanced neutrals and mid-tones, an increased number of vibrant brights, many complex hues with greater depth and intensity, and more subdued and smoky variations of popular colors.

     

ARE THESE THE BOOKS IN YOUR OFFICE?
In 2015, we introduced 210 new colors. If you are using these guides and textile books, you are missing 210 colors from the complete 2,310 Fashion, Home + Interiors color palette and your FHI Color Guide and FHI Color Specifier do not have improved eco-friendly formulations.

In 2015 Pantone reformulated to make colors more sustainable.

TPG replaced TPX in 2015. This move marked an environmentally-friendly shift in formulation to meet the REACH regulation in European law of eco-friendly pigments. Pantone removed all lead from our coatings, and, to clearly communicate this shift, we replaced the X with a G, meaning ‘green’ (in the environmentally-conscious way).

TPG colors, naming and numbering are the same as TPX colors. However, if someone is specifying color using TPX, their guides are significantly out of date, and they should consider replacing their guides to ensure colors are visually accurate. All modern forecasts and references to Pantone Fashion, Home + Interiors colors include TPG instead of TPX.

   
     
   DO THESE PRODUCTS LOOK FAMILIAR?
If so, you are missing 315 new colors for a total of 2,625 Fashion, Home + Interiors Colors and all of the new enhancements added to the Pantone Fashion, Home + Interiors product line in 2020.
