Orange

Do you want to use this color in your promotional items? Here's what you should know!

Orange is a bright color named after the fruit. It’s a mix of red and yellow, and in color psychology, evokes feelings of youthfulness, liveliness, vivaciousness, and sociality.

While it may be a color of warmth and youth, orange is also used for safety equipment, traffic cones, and prison jumpsuits. This is because orange is highly visible from a distance.
