Generate CSS Color Filters

The CSS Color Filter Generator helps you generate CSS filter values that convert a black icon or image into any HEX or RGB color. Simply enter your desired color, and the tool calculates the closest possible CSS filter values using properties like invert(), sepia(), saturate(), hue-rotate(), brightness(), and contrast(). Instantly preview the result and copy the generated CSS for your website or application.

What is a CSS Color Filter Generator?

A CSS Color Filter Generator is an online tool that converts a target HEX or RGB color into a CSS filter property. This allows developers to recolor black SVG icons, PNG icons, logos, and monochrome images without creating multiple image files. Instead of editing graphics in design software, you can apply a single CSS filter directly in your stylesheet.

Features

• Live preview of the original and filtered color.
• Displays the closest matching CSS filter.
• Shows color accuracy (loss value).
• Copy CSS filter code with one click.
• No image editing software required.
• Works with SVG, PNG, icons, and monochrome images.

How to Use the CSS Color Filter Generator

1. Enter a HEX or RGB color.
2. Click the Get Filter button.
3. Preview the generated color.
4. Copy the generated CSS filter.
5. Apply the CSS filter to your image or icon.

Why Use This Tool?

Creating separate icon files for every brand color can be time-consuming. This tool lets you recolor black icons using only CSS, reducing image assets and making color changes much easier. It’s ideal for navigation icons, logos, social media icons, buttons, UI components, dark mode themes, dashboards, and responsive websites.

How Does It Work?

The generator calculates a combination of CSS filter functions, including invert(), sepia(), saturate(), hue-rotate(), brightness(), and contrast(), to reproduce the selected color as accurately as possible. It also displays a loss score, indicating how closely the generated filter matches your chosen color.

Browser Compatibility

The generated CSS uses the standard filter property supported by all major browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and Opera. The generated code works perfectly with modern websites and frontend frameworks.
