Team

Hello and a warm welcome dear visitors to our RAL COLOURS website. We are delighted that you have decided to visit our website. We would like to introduce ourselves on this page so that you can find out a bit more about us and you can put “more of a face” to RAL COLOURS.

Colour definition and colour design have been our passion for more than 90 years. Having started as a colour collection to standardise processes in industry and the transport system, we have continuously developed new products for you, our customers over the decades. They have made the world we all live in more colourful, but also safer at the same time. This is because clear colour identification always also means greater safety in application.

Nowadays our colour charts and colour sheets are at home all over the world and help our customers from the fields of architecture, design, skilled trades and industry. And how can we support you?

MARKUS FRENTROP
Head of RAL COLOURS

I have been fascinated with the wide range of shades and paint pots since I was young. This enthusiasm for colour has stayed with me ever since and is reflected in the many beautiful projects and collaborations which we carry out at RAL COLOURS. My motivation is the fact that I can help our customers and partners all around the globe to make the world a more colourful place with a colour range consisting of more than 2,500 RAL shades.

Colours are useful for guidance worldwide, also help communication and trigger emotions. They are as multifaceted as people.

The work is very varied and offers international contact and creativity.

Laura Kilian
Marketing & Product Management

Colour as a design tool has many facets. Starting with the cultural context of a colour, the functional or communicative dimension to the sensual, aesthetic level. There is almost no situation in our environment, in which we are not connected to the topic of colour. This leads to enormous creative potential.
Taking these aspects into the further development of the RAL COLOURS product range is an exciting and varied mission for me.

Martin Kern
Online Marketing & Social Media

For me, online marketing and social media are central points of contact to customers, potential buyers and the community of RAL.

The great thing about it is that a direct exchange takes place here. For me personally, the important thing about it is to remain genuine and communicate on one level. RAL offers wonderfully varied subject areas.

Melissa Lindemeyer
Colour Design & Colour Training

In a visual dialogue, colour is an essential information carrier. Colour can evoke emotions, clarify functions or simply show us the way. With the help of RAL, the interplay of colour, materiality and form can be systematically planned and communicated globally. This makes colour a universal language that can be understood across cultural boundaries.

Lina Schmidt
Colour Design & Colour Training

Colour unites many different design disciplines such as graphic design, interior design and product design. This multidisciplinary character makes a holistic understanding of colour so important. This diversity can be represented and communicated through RAL. As a colour designer, colour is always the guiding theme in my creative work. Colour is not just a visual appearance, but a central element that shapes emotions, atmospheres and social and cultural identities. RAL serves as a tangible tool to tell stories and bring spaces to life.

Precisely in the area of colours and consequently at RAL COLOURS, it’s always exciting and interesting owing to the constant new challenges and projects, which is also reflected in collaboration with customers in Germany and abroad.

Hasan Atak
Colour Measurement Laboratory

Already during my school days, I wanted to learn a profession which involves colour. This is why I decided to train as a screen printer where I learned to ensure quality and colour matching when printing. It’s how I came into contact with RAL colours and was impressed with the quality and precision of the colour charts. After many years in the printing industry, I am now working at RAL in the colour measurement laboratory. I am allowed to work on the development and quality assurance for our beautiful RAL colours so that we can provide our customers with very good products also in the future.
