The British Standard Colours (BS Colours) are a traditional British color system established in the 1930s as the national standard for paints, coatings, and finishes. It defines standardized color shades with clear reference numbers to ensure color accuracy and consistency across industry, architecture, and design.
The most well-known series are BS 381C and BS 4800. While BS 381C is primarily used for industrial applications, vehicles, and safety markings, BS 4800 is aimed at architecture, interior design, and construction. Each color is defined by a unique numerical code (e.g., BS 4800 10 A 03) that ensures precise color reproduction.
Usage
The British Standard Colours are used in the UK and internationally by architects, designers, engineers, and paint manufacturers. They serve as binding references for protective coatings, façade paints, corporate design, transportation, and military identification. Many paint producers worldwide base their products on BS standards to ensure compatibility with public and industrial specifications.
For digital color planning, BS colors can be integrated into programs such as Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator, and tools like qConv enable precise conversions to other systems such as RAL, NCS, or Pantone — ideal for agencies seeking consistent international color definitions.
Tips for Designers & Agencies
When developing color concepts for international clients, BS colors are an excellent choice for specifying British standard shades. Be sure to select the correct series (BS 381C or BS 4800), as they differ in gloss and application area. BS 4800 is recommended for architectural projects, while BS 381C is better suited for industrial and technical uses.
With qConv, you can quickly match BS colors to other systems, analyze color deviations, and create alternative harmonies — ensuring your design remains consistent across countries and color standards.
