Pantone Dark Green Colors
Pantone dark green colors are the deep, saturated tones within the Green family — 47 colors with lightness below 30%, ranging from #00491E (3537 C) at the darkest end to #5B6236 (7498 C). Each color has a unique Pantone code, HEX, RGB, and CMYK print equivalent.

About Pantone Dark Green
Dark green colors sit in a specific band of the Green family: lightness below 30%. That gives them a distinct role in a palette. Dark green tones are heavy, saturated, and suitable for text, contrast, and dramatic surfaces.
Because Pantone codes are physical ink mixes, the intensity classification on this page is based on the HEX approximation of each color — the standard digital translation used by design tools. The classification is deterministic: every code with the same HEX approximation always lands in the same intensity bucket.
If you want the full green range — light, mid-tone, dark, and everything between — use the Pantone Green family page.

Frequently asked questions
How many Pantone dark green colors are there?
Our catalog includes 47 Pantone dark green colors, defined as Solid Coated colors in the green family with lightness below 30%. The exact count depends on the intensity threshold — a slightly different threshold would produce a slightly different number. The Pantone system as a whole contains more green-family codes, but not all of them fall into this intensity band.
What is the lightest Pantone dark green color?
The lightest color in this set is 3537 C (#00491E). Because these are all "dark" green colors by our classification, this is the top of the lightness range for this bucket — but there are lighter codes in the full Pantone catalog that fall outside the dark threshold and are covered on our broader Pantone Green page.
What is the darkest Pantone dark green color?
The darkest color in this set is 7498 C (#5B6236). Because this bucket is specifically the darkest end of the family, the "darkest" end here is close to the darkest possible green Pantone.
When should I use a dark green Pantone color?
Dark green colors are heavy, saturated, and suitable for text, contrast, and dramatic surfaces. Use them when you need a green that reads as serious and heavy rather than light. They work well as accents, CTAs, and high-contrast elements.
How are these colors chosen?
We classify Pantone Solid Coated colors into intensity buckets by converting each color's RGB values to HSL and comparing against fixed thresholds. Light = lightness above 65%. Dark = lightness below 30%. Pale = lightness above 75% with saturation below 30%. Vivid = saturation above 65% with lightness between 35% and 65%. This is a deterministic classifier, not a curated list — the same Pantone code always lands in the same bucket.
Are these the same as the codes on the Pantone Green page?
Partially — the green family page shows all green-family codes in our catalog, while this page shows only the dark subset. Every code on this page also appears on the Pantone Green page, but not every code on that page appears here. Use this page when you specifically want dark tones; use the family page when you want the full range.
