Reseda green
This RAL 6011 Colour is presented to you as a part of green hues assortment on the RAL Classic colour chart. You will notice that all of these grouped colours follow this specific designation, which is based on four-digit number in combination with the letters "RAL". This is why green colours are sequentialy coded under 6xxxx, where 6 is a system code number (1: yellow, 2: orange, 3: red, 4: purple, 5: blue, 6: green, 7: grey, 8: brown and 9: white and black shades).
The name Reseda green actually serves as additional, auxiliary designation, making the colour easier to remember. This naming system also provides additonal quality assurance preventing erroneous colour assigment due to number transposition.
On this particular hue range, in addition to 'reseda green', you will find hand-picked colour tones selected by RAL institute design experts. This green colour assortment holds another 35 excellent tones (making a total of 36 unique colour samples).

◾ RAL 6011 to CMYK
In the CMYK colour system the RAL 6011 is composed by combining four primary tones of pigment. To achieve this exclusive "reseda green" colour tone, out of 100% maximum colour components, 50% cyan, 10% magenta, 60% yellow and 45% key (black) are used.
You can immediately see this result on this computer simulated CMYK diagram.
The mixture of these primary colours blends in the middle on a square space where all four different colour hue sheets overlap.
◾ RAL 6011 to RGB
The conversion of RAL 6011 into RGB colour space requres specific composition of red, green, and blue primary colours.
To construct hue matching "reseda green" colour from the RAL chart as close as possible, we use the following values ranging from 0 to 255 on the RGB colour system: 108 red, 124 green and 89 blue.
The three circle RGB diagram here provides illustrative example showing how green value stands out just enough in comparison to red and blue to construct this unique tone of colour.
The RAL colour equivalent emerges in the very center, where all three primary colour circles overlap and combine.
