About
Pantone’s Polyester Swatch Card is the latest standard on non-organic, manmade fabric for designers, colorists, and product developers in apparel, textiles, and soft home. Individual swatch cards are made from double-layered, 100% non-recycled polyester, loose-format fabric.
Made to exacting color specifications, each swatch card includes a barcode that can be used to order the associated spectral data (sold separately) for assured color accuracy in production. These 203 colors were curated to represent the most sought-after shades to complement our existing Fashion, Home + Interiors cotton and nylon standards.
All Swatch Cards are non-returnable/non-refundable.
