What color is RAL Classic Pure White?

RAL Classic Pure White RAL 9010 is a high-value off-white with a soft warm cast, reflected in its lightly creamy, yellow-beige undertone. It reads gentler than a stark white, especially in north-facing rooms or under cool LED lighting, where its subtle warmth helps prevent walls from looking icy. In bright daylight, Pure White appears clean and pale while retaining a faint sense of depth. Use it across walls, trim, or painted cabinetry when a near-white finish is wanted without a sharp blue or gray edge. It pairs naturally with light oak, warm limestone, brushed brass, muted greens, and earthy taupe accents.

What are RAL Classic Pure White undertones?

Pure White is a near-white, near-neutral neutral off-white. Its chroma is so low that assigning a specific hue-based undertone would be misleading. Because it is close to neutral, nearby surfaces and the color of the light can noticeably change how warm or cool it appears.

HEX value:

#F2EFE7

RGB code:

242, 239, 231

LRV of Pure White

Pure White has an LRV of 84% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 84%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft² living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
