OUR BRAND LOGO AND SLOGAN

The brand logo visualises our brand alignment. It is comprised of a word mark and a figurative mark – the word mark acts as the clear sender. Through the independent way it is written, it embodies recognition and our technological aspirations.

The slogan "For sovereign security." creates a content-related bracket for our field of activity. As the Swiss Army's technology partner, we are an integral and forward-looking component of Swiss security.

Our figurative mark – "stable agility"

The figurative mark is based on the Swiss cross. Along with the Swiss red, it clearly communicates our origin. The second grey colour visualises our technological orientation.

The logo's block-like composition represents stability. The horizontal axis as well as the axis at a 45 degree angle represent agility, progress, dynamism and the constant striving for innovative solutions.

Logo – versions

The word and figurative marks
The RUAG logo consists of a word mark and a figurative mark. Both elements form the logo's standard versions.

Figurative mark
In contrast to the word mark, the figurative mark can be used separately in individual cases.

Logo files
In order to make the design of RUAG media easier, and in order to minimise error sources during production, there is digital, printable RUAG logo data available.

Logo formats and colour spaces
Because specific media have different requirements for file formats and colour ranges, the digital logo data are made in the most common colour spaces and formats:

  • 4c, Pantone: Offset print
  • RGB [3c] digital media
  • Grey, 1c: media produced with one colour
  • 1c (black or negative): Exception for moving images
    or give-aways

With the exception of the fully scalable vector data, the logos are also available as pixel data in the corresponding quality.
