Chromaflo Technologies Announces Its 2022 Color of the Year

November 17, 2021

ASHTABULA, OH — Chromaflo Technologies recently announced its 2022 Color of the Year is Monarch, a bold, emotional, red-shade orange that inspires creativity and success. Monarch builds on Chromaflo’s 2021 color, Encouragement, a natural green shade focused on cocooning within a sense of comfort and serenity. The new color for 2022 is all about emergence and growth. Influenced by North America’s monarch butterfly migration patterns, this warm hue represents navigating new paths towards sunny days. 

“We are excited to reveal Monarch as Chromaflo’s 2022 Color of the Year,” said Steve Riccardi, Director of Global Marketing, Chromaflo Technologies. “While still heavily influenced by the natural and comforting green shades found in 2021, Monarch, along with our entire 2022 color palette, provides warmth like the emergence of spring, as prosperity and growth take on new appearances.”

Monarch (#24-7D) leads Chromaflo’s 2022 Color Palette, which also includes: Sunstone #23-3P, Enlightenment #2-0402P, Sojourn #169-2P, Precious #422Nt, Wisdom #1-1710D, Haruki #AP115-5 and Paradox #2-0401P.

The color formula for Monarch, utilizing Chromaflo’s point-of-sale architectural colorants, is available upon request here.
