Description RAL 7002 Olive grey

RAL 7002, also known as 'Olive grey', is a muted, earthy colour that sits between grey and green, carrying a distinctly utilitarian and natural character. It has a subdued warmth that prevents it from feeling cold or sterile, while its green undertone gives it a subtle organic quality reminiscent of weathered foliage, damp stone, or military textiles. The colour feels grounded and restrained, conveying stability, endurance, and practicality.

RAL 7002 adapts well to changing light conditions. In bright daylight it can appear more clearly grey, with its green influence receding into the background, while in softer or shadowed light the olive notes become more pronounced, lending it a deeper, more atmospheric presence. This variability makes it a versatile color that can feel quietly modern in industrial or architectural contexts, yet equally at home in natural or historically inspired settings.

The overall impression of RAL 7002 is one of understatement and reliability. It avoids strong contrast or saturation, which allows it to function as a calm, neutral backdrop while still offering more character than a standard grey. Its association with military, technical, and outdoor applications reinforces a sense of robustness and purpose, but when used thoughtfully it can also feel refined and balanced. RAL 7002 communicates a quiet confidence, blending seamlessly into its surroundings while maintaining a distinctive, earthy identity.
