If you're anything like us you're always looking for new colours and designs that catch your attention. UK paper company GF Smith feels the same way and has been surveying colour enthusiasts from over 100 countries to help determine the most popular colour in the world! A hard task? Rather - that's why they asked survey participants to nominate the colours close to their hearts. The results are actually quite surprising...

The Perfect Promotional Printing Green

The winning shade was selected by a survey participant named Annie Marrs. The colour she picked is a bold green-blue (or teal) that GF Smith has named Marrs Green. While we'd be just satisfied with that incredible honour, Marrs Green is getting an extra boost by being introduced into the luxury Colourplan promotional print item range from GF Smith!

So what makes this beautiful hue so captivating? Annie Marrs herself suggests the colour is inspired by the Scottish landscape, but more than that it is a luxurious universal shade that evokes memories of natural beauty. By combining elements of green and blue, Marrs Green extends its usability beyond designs often reserved for either green OR blue. Given that 2017's Pantone Colour of The Year is also green (albeit a lot more yellow than blue) it seems like we're shifting towards more natural shades in promotional printing.

After a long look at the Marrs Green shade we would recommend using the colour on products such as promotional calico bags, notebooks for trade shows, and even on simple products such as pens. Because this teal shade stands out so beautifully against either a white or black background you can use it on basically any product!
