Sherwin Williams

UltraWhite

SW 9500

UltraWhite (hex #F6F7F2) is a crisp, cool white from Sherwin-Williams with subtle blue undertones that prevent it from reading yellow or cream. Its LRV of 94 places it among the highest-reflectance options available, maximizing light return and producing a clean, bright appearance on walls, ceilings, and trim. The slight cool shift is most apparent when placed next to warmer whites.

Pure White and Snowbound are close tonal companions for a layered white-on-white scheme. Silver Strand and Krypton work as soft accent colors that complement its cool base, while Naval or Iron Ore provide sharp contrast.
