Does Earthborn publish official RAL Classic equivalents?

No. These are computed nearest matches — every Earthborn colour compared against every RAL Classic colour using the CIEDE2000 colour-difference formula, then ranked by distance. They are not official conversions, and where no close equivalent exists the chart says so.

How many Earthborn colours have a close RAL Classic equivalent?

45 of the 85 Earthborn colours in this chart have a RAL Classic equivalent within ΔE 5 — close enough that most people would struggle to tell them apart on a wall.

Earthborn → RAL Classic conversion chart

This chart lists all 85 Earthborn colours with their nearest RAL Classic equivalent, ranked by colour distance (ΔE, CIEDE2000 — lower is closer). 45 of 85 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.
