Pantone is an American color standards company founded in 1962 by Lawrence Herbert in Carlstadt, New Jersey, after Herbert bought the printing division of M&J Levine Advertising for $50,000. In 1963 Herbert introduced the Pantone Matching System, a proprietary library that lets designers and printers reproduce specific colors consistently across substrates and presses. The PMS library now contains over 2,100 spot colors, and the Pantone Color of the Year program, launched in 2000, drives an annual cycle of design press. The company is headquartered in Carlstadt and has been owned by Veralto since 2023. Supreme collaborated with Pantone on a paint can and color chip accessories.
