What is NCS?
NCS – Natural Colour System® is rooted in science, reflecting how we perceive colours. Using NCS Notations or codes, you can describe colour on any surface, whether it's fabric, paint or packaging.
What sets NCS apart?
It’s become the global go-to standard for defining and communicating colours, ensuring accurate and high-quality colour communication.
Why choose NCS?
