TRADEMARK

A trademark is a valuable business asset

The main purpose of our trademarks is to

ensure that the users of our products can

recognise Sormat products among others

in the market.

Sormat’s trademarks are protected by

international, national and regional

registrations. Sormat will take legal action if

there is any infringement on the company’s

registered and non-registered trademarks

and elements linked to them.

Sormat Oy’s registered trademarks include

Sormat®, Trusted Fixings Since 1970®, PFG®,

S-UF®, S-UP® and Liebig® . Gripper™ is a

trademark of Sormat Oy.

FOR DESIGNERS

Sormat sells its products and services in more than 40 countries

That is why our goal is for our company’s

message to be distinctive, consistent and

recognisable in all market areas, regardless

of the designer.

Our visual guidelines are designed to be

a practical tool to assist all of our co-

operation partners in planning and realising

Sormat’s communication material.

Our intention is not to shackle creativity,

but we also cannot allow too much creative

licence. If the communication solution you

have designed deviates from the guidelines

in this Brand Book, please contact

[email protected].

Please include in your email a written

explanation as well as a draft, with as much

detail as possible, of your solution.

FINALLY

Read these guidelines carefully before getting started

Any party that wishes to use Sormat’s visual

brand elements, such as a logo, symbol or

other image, is required to read the guideli-

nes contained in this Brand Book.

Any visual elements presented in these

guidelines or otherwise connected to

Sormat’s trademarks cannot be used

in any way without the explicit written

consent of a representative of Sormat’s

communications or without permission

having been otherwise granted and which

can be proven.

As we retain the right to make changes to

these visual guidelines without warning,

we recommend that parties executing

design plans that concern Sormat’s

communications regularly visit www.

sormat.com to ensure that they are up to

date about possible changes.

Please send any questions you may have

concerning Sormat’s communications and

visual identity, as well as material requests

to [email protected].

BRAND

A brand is the positive reputation built around a trademark

In the safety-critical construction industry,

we want our end users to always think of

us as a reliable manufacturer of premium

quality products and as a company that

resolves fixing issues.

We naturally cannot decide for our end

users what they think of our company, but

we can try to steer their impression of us in

the right direction.

Sormat’s visual identity supports our

targeted brand identity: Convenience

and expertise, which allow us to offer our

customers the best purchasing, service and

user experience in the fixing industry.

LOGO

Sormat’s logo is made up of a logotype and a symbol

The logo is the most concise representation of Sormat’s brand. That is why it must always be used correctly and consistently. The logo must always be presented exactly as it was designed. The logo can never be changed, modified or reproduced as a drawing. Always use original Sormat logo files.

With careful consideration, the symbol can also be used separately from the logotype, but the symbol alone cannot replace the use of the logo.

Never use the logotype on its own, i.e. without the symbol.

LOGO

Clear space

To ensure that the logo stands out from its surroundings as effectively as possible, a clear space free of any text and graphical elements must be left around the logo, as shown here. The minimum size of the clear space is half of the width and half of the height of the symbol. The clear space is shown here.

LOGO

Versions

There are different-coloured versions of

the logo. Here are some examples of how

the logo versions should be used with, for

instance, different coloured backgrounds.

The most important factor is for the logo to

stand out sufficiently from the background.

Always use a white background and

coloured logo whenever possible.

COLOUREDA coloured logo on a white

background. If not possible to

use a white background, use

as light a shade or surface as

possible for the background.

COLOURED NEGATIVEIf you wish to use the negative of

the logo on a coloured surface,

these are the recommended

methods for doing so. Always

use a dark background.

MONOCHROMEIf, for technical printing reasons,

neither a coloured version nor

a coloured negative version of

the logo can be used, then a

monochrome version must be

used.

ONE COLOUR NEGATIVEUse a white version of the logo.

LOGO

Versions

LOGO FILE FORMATSVarious versions of the logo have been

created for different purposes, such as for

print media and for web and MS Office

environments.

The logic behind the names of the original

logo files is to indicate the positive or

negative version of the logo shade, and the

logo’s colour space and file format.

COLOURS

Main colours

Sormat’s main colours reflect personality

and help to build a recognisable brand.

These defined colours are used extensively

in various graphical elements, such as

backgrounds, lines, texts, symbols and

graphs.

Additional colours

Sormat’s additional colours bring variety to

the regular colour palette. Use dark grey as

the main text colour on a white background

instead of full black. Light grey is good as,

for example, a background colour.

Otherwise, these colours should be used

with consideration, and they work best in

small doses together with the main colours.

TYPOGRAPHY

Typography in professional applications and on the internet

For professional applications, such as in

print media and various motion picture

applications, such as animation, video and

the internet, Sormat’s typography consists

of the Museo font family in the font

versions shown here.

MUSEO SANSis a sans serif font that works best when

clarity is required, for instance, in tables, for

numbers and small body text.

MUSEO SLABis a serif font with more character. It works

well in headlines and pull-quotes, as well

as in marketing applications and in a large

font.

TYPOGRAPHY

Typography in office appli-cations

In office applications, such as Microsoft

Office, Sormat’s typography consists of the

Calibri typeface in the fonts shown on the

right.

This typeface can also be used on websites

if, for technical reasons, it is not possible to

use the above-mentioned Museo Sans or

Museo Slab.

Calibri fonts are the default typeface in MS

Office 2010 and 2013.

grouped into three categories:

PEOPLE

Clipped or partially clipped black &

white photos of people are the basic

elements of Sormat’s visual identity.

• Strive to photograph genuine or

true-to-life situations.

• The photos should be

refreshingly masculine and re-

flect a sense of enthusiasm and

satisfaction.

• The themes of the photos can be

chosen according to the

target group, showing either a

consumer or a professional.

Black & white industry photos

white wall.

• Photos can include people as

well, but this is not a require-

ment.

SYMBOLS

Vector-based symbols are core elements of Sor-mat’s visual identity and, together with the photos, they form a part of the image palette The symbols can represent both general

themes (e.g. the arrow) and themes related

directly to products or the industry, for ex-

ample, a power drill or the Torx shape.

Crucial elements of the symbols are a

degree of

consistency and a balance between sharp

and round edges, similar to the examples

shown here.

Symbols are used together with product

photos, for instance in Sormat’s stationery,

and they can be used in all visual materials.

used in the application demos on page 21

INFOGRAPHICS

Clear and understandable infographics that have a convincing visual style are an important element of Sormat’s visual identity Installation and dimensional drawings are

available for products on the internet and in

packages, catalogues and brochures.

In communication related to Sormat

products, only original installation and

dimensional drawings can be used; this is to

ensure that the instructions and data given

are correct.

INSTALLATION DRAWINGS

In both black & white and colour

infographics, it is important to achieve

maximum definition, clarity and

reproduction on a small scale.

DIMENSIONAL DRAWINGS

Dimensional drawings are important in

selecting the correct fixing product. They

present the most important parameters

affecting selection. Dimensional drawings

are available in both blue and black & white

versions.

PAYOFF

What do our customers get from us that they can’t find elsewhere? Sormat makes the work go smoothly. This

is something that should be highlighted in

our customers’ purchasing, service and user

experiences. Our smooth service is born

out of a determination that is supported by

the know-how of individuals, teams and the

company, and the right tools. We call our

standard Sormat Super Service.

In communication, the slogan, i.e. payoff, is

usually replaced by strong, distinctive head-

lines. A permanent form and style has been

designed for our Super Service standard,

and this highlights our way of thinking in

internal and external communication.

The Super Service payoff can also be used

together with a symbol. Do not use the

payoff + symbol version in applications

where it might conflict with Sormat’s logo.

The payoff + symbol version works best

in places where Sormat’s logo is not in

the immediate vicinity of it, such as on the

inside page or back cover of a catalogue, if

Sormat’s official logo is on the front cover.

Or, say, in an animated banner that does not

include the official logo.

> See more examples of how the payoff is

used in the application demos on page 25

PRODUCT BRANDS

Sormat’s main product is the company itself

Sormat, thus, is the brand for the entire

company, not for individual products.

Sormat’s products are part of a single

high-quality offering, the product portfolio.

This is reflected in the product names, for

example, S-CS (Sormat Concrete screw).

Sormat’s corporate brand is crystallised in

the logo presented on page 4 of this Brand

Book.

Sormat’s product portfolio includes three

“product brands”, i.e. types or groups of

products that are recognised in the markets

by their independent and unique brand

names. They are either registered or so-

called established trademarks.

Sormat’s product brands are:

> LIEBIG®

> PFG®

> GRIPPER™

The product brand logo can never be used

without Sormat’s logo or with the symbol

alone.

Gripper™ logo:

The Gripper® logo consists of the product brand logo and the old Sormat logo. It can also be used without the Sormat logo. Sormat’s new logo can also be used in the same layout.

> See examples of how the logo is used in the application demos on page 26

PFG® logo:

The PFG® logo cannot be used in communications..

LIEBIG® logo:

®The LIEBIG® logo can be used in communication in the place reserved for an alternative logo in colour versions similar to the Sormat logo. Hierarchically, the logo is comparable to the approval and certificate logos. Sormat’s logo must always be the more visible one.

> See examples of how the logo is used in the application demos on page 27

EVENTS

Sormat’s visual identity at events can combine photos, macrotexture

photos of construction materials, symbols and written messages.

Theme stands must follow a light, bright and well-lit style, and the

general appearance must be recognisable. A selected theme (e.g.

the 60s) may be communicated by means of imagery and symbols

created to highlight the theme.

To capture people’s attention, orange flashing lights or an orange

high visibility style, for example, can be used.
