POSCA Marker Colours & Their Pantone (PMS) Equivalents
At PoscART, we understand how important colour consistency is for artists, designers, and creative professionals. Whether you’re working across print and digital mediums or developing artwork for commercial branding, ensuring your colours match is key to a flawless finish.
This is why we’ve developed a practical and accurate guide that matches POSCA marker colours with their closest Pantone (PMS) equivalents, based on precise HEX sampling from actual marker tips.
Why PMS Matching Matters
The Pantone Matching System (PMS) is the global standard in print and design. Matching POSCA colours to Pantone values helps maintain accuracy and reliability across different formats—whether you're preparing artwork for printing, packaging, signage, or digital replication.
How We Created the Reference
We conducted detailed colour sampling using high-resolution scans of POSCA marker tips. These values were then converted into standard HEX and RGB colour codes and aligned to the nearest Pantone equivalents using professional comparison tools.
This approach ensures the chart reflects actual marker output, not just theoretical colour codes—making it an ideal reference for artists and professionals who value precision.
Who Should Use This?
- Graphic Designers matching brand colours with physical POSCA work
- Artists and Illustrators combining digital and hand-drawn media
- Print professionals creating packaging or signage mock-ups
- Teachers & Students exploring colour theory and consistency
