Dulux Heritage → RAL Classic conversion chart
This chart lists all 113 Dulux Heritage colours with their nearest RAL Classic equivalent, ranked by colour distance (ΔE, CIEDE2000 — lower is closer). 66 of 113 have an equivalent within ΔE 5, which is close enough that the difference is hard to spot once paint’s on the wall. Where the nearest RAL Classic colour is ΔE 8 or more there is no close equivalent — the nearest is still shown for reference, clearly labelled. Standard-system hex values are widely-cited sRGB approximations; physical reference chips remain authoritative for colour-critical work.
