PMS 322 C is a Pantone Matching System (PMS) color known for its strong teal character and is commonly referenced in brand and marketing applications. As part of the Pantone PMS collection, it communicates a technical, assertive, and modern vibe while maintaining a sense of clarity and formality. The color supports environments where consistency and recognizable color identity are critical for display fabrication, industrial design, and marketing programs.
PMS 322 C is considered dark in value, with a low LRV of 10.66. The color skews cool, leaning toward blue over green. This color is highly saturated, producing a vivid and impactful appearance. PMS 322 C presents a strong blue-green undertone. Finish choices may alter the perceived depth and brightness, especially in glossy or matte applications.
PMS 322 C is best used when a strong, consistent, and professional teal-green statement is required for branded displays, signage, or event elements. Users should ensure adequate surface preparation due to its depth and potential for coverage variability on porous or uneven surfaces. Lighting conditions can significantly influence the apparent hue, with cooler or neutral illumination maintaining its clarity. PMS 322 C provides more visual punch and formality than less saturated or lighter teal options but may require additional coats for full opacity over light or highly absorbent substrates.
Similar colors:

Frequently Asked Questions About Pantone™ PMS 322 C
How can lighting conditions affect how PMS 322 C looks in my brand display?
The appearance of PMS 322 C can change noticeably depending on the lighting where your display is installed. This dark, saturated teal may look brighter or cooler under neutral or cool illumination, while warm lighting can bring out more of the green or lessen the color's clarity. To ensure brand consistency, always evaluate a sample of PMS 322 C in the actual environment and lighting where your display, signage, or prototype will be viewed, as metamerism can make the color appear different under various light sources.

When do I need a primer for PMS 322 C paint applications?
Primer is recommended for PMS 322 C if you are painting bare, porous, or uneven surfaces, or if strong color coverage and adhesion are required. Because PMS 322 C is highly saturated and low in light reflectance, a primer can improve hide and final appearance, especially on light or absorbent substrates.

Can I use the Pantone PMS 322 C for touch up?
Unfortunately, no.
Some manufacturers specify Pantone colors as touch up for their products, but Pantone does not work well as a proxy for a touch-up solution (for a litany of reasons such as it doesn't include sheen and Pantone color tolerances are not tight enough for touch up). When we match Pantone colors we are matching to a swatch in a Pantone book - not to your product.
The only way we can provide a touch-up solution for your product is for you send us a part. We would use the part to create a touch-up grade match. Unfortunately, there isn't an effective way to 'spec' the color well enough to produce a touch up without the part.
