Have anyone tried the colorfabb RAL6018 version (https://colorfabb.com/yellow-green-ral-6018 )? It looks a bit dark compared to the "Festool RAL6018", something that I have also experienced with other plastics specified to be RAL6018. Although the intense green looks a bit on the bright side, maybe it would also be quite close(https://colorfabb.com/intense-green )?
3D printer filament brand/color that comes closest to matching Festool green?

I'm using this PLA filament from 3djake as it is fairly accessible and cheap

This is great, looking forward to try those!
Some experience based on the last year of printing with "Festool colors":
Festool Green:
After trying a couple of variants I can recommend Spectrum Filament "Lime Green", which is RAL6018 and very close to the Festool green. It is available in both PLA and PETG. I have also tried add:North Power Tool Light Green X-PLA, which is closely matched to Festool green and works equally well.
Festool "Sapphire Blue":
I found that Spectrum FIlaments "Color wish" service could provide the Sapphire Blue RAL5003 which matches the blue color very well. https://shop.spectrumfilaments.com/...mm-Sapphire-Blue-RAL-5003-1kg.html?query_id=2
Systainer gray:
I tried some different variants and made a comparison. Summarized, the color fabb RAL 7035 is extremely close and the Spectrum Filaments Light grey RAL 7035 is also very close. The Bambu light grey is not that close, but can probably also work.

I had looked this up a long time ago, but I had forgotten the number. The closest color for Festool Green is Pantone 359C. There is an RAL number associated with it too, but Pantone is a more popular system.
Google “3D filament Pantone 359C” and you will find several vendors I’m certain. But many will have a minimum order quantity that will be beyond your needs. So you do have to find a vendor that keeps this in stock.
