BRAND GUIDELINES
PRIMARY COLOURS
PRIMARY
COLOURS
The TNT orange is one of the most recognisable assets in the TNT visual identity.
In our logo lockups we use orange to link the word
People with the logo mark. We use grey as an
integral part of the strap line to highlight our brand
message.
The TNT primary colours are as much a part of the
visual identity as the logo mark and logo lockups.
Therefore it is essential that they are used and reproduced well to ensure brand recognition.
The TNT orange should always be spot colour but,
where this is not possible, care should be taken to
reproduce the best match possible.
Factors such as stock, printing technique and media
can affect the appearance of any brand expression.
Note The colour values here give an indication of
colour match for full colour printing and digital
applications.
X The TNT orange should never be used as a tint.

SECONDARY
COLOURS
The secondary colours are introduced to enhance
the visual brand world. They provide a natural palette to complement the bold orange, grey and white
of the primary colours.
Our secondary colours work to support our primary
colours and to ensure clarity of hierarchy and information on any piece of communication.
They should never dominate a page.

colour match for full colour printing.

BRAND GUIDELINES

CIRCLE
BLANCO
Using the circle creates a clear link to our brand and
visually connects each of our touchpoints in print
and online around the world.
The circle can be scaled but must retain the established proportion between elements. It must respect
the established minimum logo and logo lockups
sizes (see previous pages).
The circle can be used on its own, as long as the
logo or logo lockups are visible elsewhere on the
item.
The circle has been created in four sizes, in both
colour options. It must only be used in the colours
shown here.

TYPOGRAPHIC STYLE
TYPOGRAPHIC STYLE
FOR PRINT
The primary typeface is Museo Sans. Modern, clean,
legible and humanist in style, its characteristics help
create the visual style for our future proof brand.
Museo Sans contains a range of weights that can be
adapted to express the right message on any given
touchpoint. It should be used as the standard across
all touchpoints, from headlines to body copy.
Note All body copy should be 90% black. Headlines,
subheads and pull out copy can use other colours
from our palette.
The secondary typeface is Kepler, which should
only be used by professional designers and creative agencies. It has been introduced to support our
primary typeface and allow for more expression,
richness and variety throughout longer print communications. It should be used to highlight or express specific messages and should never dominate
over Museo Sans.
Professional designers and creative agencies should
be directed to use both Museo Sans and Kepler
when developing creative expressions for our brand.
Note Where possible, internal teams may also use
the primary font Museo Sans in all communications.
If you dont have access to these fonts please use
the digital fonts detailed on page 27.

PHOTOGRAPHIC STYLE
PHOTOGRAPHIC
STYLE
The TNT photographic style is bright, bold and engaging and
often shows our people in their environments. When choosing
imagery (or creating new photography) keep the following
points in mind:
DOCUMENTARY STYLE
Our images reflect real people in a real world and should feel
documentary in style. They capture the activity and energy
amongst our people and a variety of environments throughout
our network. Avoid staged emotions, scenarios and settings.
VIVID COLOURS
We use images which contain the vivid colours of life. Images
that add colour and personality to every page of editorial or
advertising in print and online. Avoid washed out colours.
NATURAL LIGHT
Use natural light in our day time images. In some environments
where there is not much light available it may be necessary
to create a feeling of light and brightness, but it must look
natural.
PEOPLE INTERACTING
We show people connecting with other people and interacting
at work in a candid and honest way. Avoid staged emotions,
scenarios and settings.
