PMS 3405 C is a standard color in the Pantone PMS collection, recognized for its vivid appearance and widespread use in environments where color consistency is critical. This color presents as energetic, professional, and assertive, with a cool undertone and noticeable chromatic intensity. Its visual character aligns with applications demanding attention while maintaining a level of brand-appropriate restraint.

PMS 3405 C appears moderately dark, with a numeric LRV of 28.12. The color has a distinctly cool tendency. PMS 3405 C is highly saturated, resulting in strong visual impact. The undertone is clean, with a consistent cool green base and no evident yellow or blue bias. The color may show some sensitivity to finish, with higher gloss finishes amplifying intensity.

PMS 3405 C works well in contexts where consistent, highly recognizable green branding is specified, such as signage, displays, fixtures, and branded environments. It should be evaluated under intended lighting conditions; saturation and depth can appear stronger in glossy or semi-gloss finishes. As with other strongly saturated colors, coverage may require more coats for uniformity, especially over contrasting base colors. In practice, PMS 3405 C is more saturated and defined than many generic greens, so it is important to confirm appearance on the target substrate before commitment.

Similar colors:
PMS 347 C is a similar cool green but appears slightly more neutral and less chromatic.

PMS 348 C is darker and exhibits a slightly more muted, forest-like green appearance.

PMS 355 C is more vivid and lighter, with higher chromatic intensity and a brighter presence.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pantone™ PMS 3405 C

Why might PMS 3405 C look different when applied to metal, plastic, or wood surfaces?

PMS 3405 C can appear different across materials such as metal, plastic, or wood due to the way each substrate absorbs paint, reflects light, and displays color. Surface texture, gloss level, and material color underneath all affect the final appearance. To ensure your implementation of PMS 3405 C meets your expectations, always evaluate a sample on the exact material and finish intended for your project.

How should I use samples of PMS 3405 C in a brand approval workflow?

For brand approval processes involving PMS 3405 C, order a small sample in the intended paint type and apply it to the actual substrate you will use. Review the color under the final installation lighting. This allows stakeholders to sign off based on real-world appearance and avoids surprises when scaling up to larger production runs or installations.

Does PMS 3405 C require special considerations for coverage and hide?

Yes, PMS 3405 C is a highly saturated green and may require additional coats to achieve full, even coverage, especially when painting over light or highly contrasting surfaces. Planning for extra coats helps ensure that PMS 3405 C displays with its intended vibrancy and consistency across the project.

Where do I find the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for PMS 3405 C paint?

The SDS for PMS 3405 C is determined by the type of paint or coating, not just the color itself. To access the correct SDS, select the specific product format (such as spray paint or epoxy) and refer to the SDS library provided for that product. The same PMS 3405 C color can be made in different paint types, each with its own SDS.

Can I use the Pantone PMS 3405 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.
