Decor Center Adds Colorblind Mode to Online Store

The new feature changes how product colors display to help shoppers with color‑vision deficiency tell tones before buying.

Overview

  • Decor Center launched the Modo Daltónico (Colorblind Mode) on its website on Monday, September 21, 2026, and made the feature publicly available to online shoppers.
  • The tool alters how product colors are presented so users with different forms of color‑vision deficiency can better distinguish tones when choosing finishes, coatings and coverings.
  • The company said the feature is aimed mainly at home‑improvement categories where accurate color matching matters for a final purchase decision.
  • Decor Center cited prevalence figures — about 8% of men, 0.5% of women and more than 300 million people worldwide — but those numbers were provided by the company and not independently verified in the coverage.
  • The rollout was tied to World Color Blindness Day and follows a wider push to add simple, practical accessibility options to e‑commerce sites so more shoppers can make confident choices.
