What is Pantone Rhodamine Red C?
Pantone Rhodamine Red C is a Coated (C) PMS reference in the pink family. Its current screen approximation on PantoneTools is #E10098, rgb(225, 0, 152), and cmyk(0%, 100%, 32%, 12%). Use it when you need a quick Pantone to HEX, Pantone to RGB, or Pantone to CMYK lookup for brand exploration, UI palettes, and print handoff conversations. For accessibility, this page tests Pantone Rhodamine Red C as a background and currently recommends black text as the safer default before final contrast review. The tints, shades, complementary palette, and developer exports are generated from the same sRGB value so teams can keep web tokens and design notes aligned. These digital values are approximations rather than licensed Pantone specifications; confirm production-critical color with a current physical guide, D50 lighting, and a printer proof.
Workflow context for Pantone Rhodamine Red C
Pink coated production notes
Because this is a coated-paper reference, use it for glossy stock, laminated labels, premium cartons, and spot-color conversations where ink sits on a less absorbent surface. Do not assume the same visual result on kraft, recycled, or uncoated paper without a separate proof. Pink and magenta families can clip or oversaturate depending on screen and process print conditions. Test accessibility carefully because many mid-pinks fail with white text.
- Use Pantone Rhodamine Red C as a digital reference first, then confirm production work against a physical guide or approved proof.
- Record the approved coated value separately from CMYK, HEX, RGB, and design-token fallbacks.
- For UI or web use, pair this color with black text only after checking the actual contrast ratio in context.
- When sending to a vendor, include the expected substrate, lighting condition, and approval owner instead of only sending a HEX value.
Data provenance
Curated community sRGB approximations
Hand-curated approximate sRGB visual equivalents for screen preview and matching workflows. This is not an official Pantone licensed value source. Use for educational lookup, digital previews, nearest-color matching, accessibility checks, and workflow planning.

Scale metadata
These fields are used by the scale audit before any larger color-directory expansion. They are intentionally conservative because current values are approximate screen references.
Bright pinks can lose intensity in process print and need explicit approval when used as brand or packaging colors.
