It is approximately 4000K. A cool white colour temperature will provide more white light and an even &#8216;blue&#8217; tint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, the neutral white is somewhat homogeneous and it acts mainly as a transition from warm white to cool white light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-neutral-white-color-temperature\">Neutral White Color Temperature<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mainly used in residential kitchens and dressing rooms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A transitional colour temperature between warm and cool colours<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accentuates earth tones and cool colours equally well<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mostly commercial lighting, supermarkets, and high-end hotels<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cool-white-color-temperature\">Cool White Color Temperature<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It Accentuates cool tones and is on the blue side of high cool<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Generally used for commercial applications lighting, task lighting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>This colour temperature is recommended for white surfaces<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Not recommended for wood grain or earth tones<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-kelvin-scale-cool-white-vs-neutral-white\">The Kelvin Scale Cool White vs Neutral White<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-Kelvin-Scale-Cool-White-vs-Neutral-White.webp\" alt=\"The Kelvin Scale Cool White vs Neutral White\" class=\"wp-image-2398\" width=\"872\" height=\"138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-Kelvin-Scale-Cool-White-vs-Neutral-White.webp 904w, https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-Kelvin-Scale-Cool-White-vs-Neutral-White-300x47.webp 300w, https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-Kelvin-Scale-Cool-White-vs-Neutral-White-768x121.webp 768w, https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-Kelvin-Scale-Cool-White-vs-Neutral-White-18x3.webp 18w, https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/The-Kelvin-Scale-Cool-White-vs-Neutral-White-600x95.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 872px) 100vw, 872px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Neutral whites are around 3500K-4500K left to mid, while cool whites start at around 5000K to 6000K. This is only an approximate colour temperature range, which also changes with manufacturers and lighting designers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, neutral white tends to have more yellow tones and cool white tends to have more white and blue tones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-use-the-right-color-rendering-index-cri\">How to Use the Right Color Rendering Index (CRI)?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Undoubtedly want a clearer representation of Cool White vs Neutral White? You have to pay attention to its CRI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What exactly is CRI? The <a href=\"https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/what-is-color-rendering-index-cri\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Colour Rendering Index<\/a> (CRI for short), is a score of up to 100. It is a measure of how colours appear when compared to sunlight under a light source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the CRI value is high (<a href=\"https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/how-to-choose-the-right-cri-80-cri-vs-90-cri-vs-95-cri\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">above 90<\/a>), you can visually see the difference in colour. The higher the CRI number, the more consistent and true the colour will be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-to-use-neutral-white-color-temperature\">Where to Use Neutral White Color Temperature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The neutral white colour temperature is ideal for most home lighting. It is often more intimate as it lies between warm and cool whites. Warm white tones work well with earthy tones and wood textures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Darker materials tend to absorb more light, so it helps to use stronger lighting in addition to colour temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use neutral whites (3500K-4500K) in bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms and indoor and outdoor spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Neutral-White-Color-Temperature-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"Neutral White Color Temperature\" class=\"wp-image-2399\" width=\"797\" height=\"531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Neutral-White-Color-Temperature-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Neutral-White-Color-Temperature-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Neutral-White-Color-Temperature-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Neutral-White-Color-Temperature-18x12.webp 18w, https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Neutral-White-Color-Temperature-600x400.webp 600w, https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Neutral-White-Color-Temperature.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 797px) 100vw, 797px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-to-use-cool-white-color-temperature\">Where to Use Cool White Color Temperature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The cool white colour temperature has a large span in the Kelvin scale. It can range from 4500K to 6000K, so we often struggle with <a href=\"https:\/\/essenledstrip.com\/4000k-vs-5000k-how-to-choose\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">4000K vs 5000K<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is ideal for task-oriented spaces, ideal for offices, kitchens, laundry rooms, and garages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the cool white colour makes people alert and more productive. It also exudes a more sterile, unwelcoming atmosphere, making it more suitable for commercial environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, these differences in colour temperature are subtle.
