100 new colours
The new addition consists of low chromatic colours that offer users greater accuracy when working with whites and greys. Whites and greys are arguably the most important colours within most industries.

You can adapt the cover for your own brand. Choose between three different cover options; laminated paper, cardboard u-shaped and plastic u-shaped.
The new NCS 2050 fandeck is a remarkable improvement compared to the 1950. The new layout is so much easier to navigate through and makes a lot more sense especially for the novice user.
