4 BRAND COLOURS Orange is the standout colour for the Scruffs brand. Black and white are also used to form the core brand identity and should be used widely to reinforce the brand. Other colours may be used where appropriate. PANTONE+ 165C / PANTONE 1655C- CMYK 0/75/100/0 - RGB 242/101/34 - WEB #f26522 RICH BLACK - CMYK 25/25/25/100 - RGB 15/7/8 - WEB #0f brand colours

5 LOGO The main logo is orange but can be used as white on contrasting coloured backgrounds. Do not use or create any other versions. Always use the master artwork files. Primary Logo - Light Coloured Background 5 logo

6 LOGO Primary Logo - Orange Background Primary Logo - Dark Coloured Backgrounds (Orange logo prefered but white can be used) 6 logo

7 LOGO - CLEARANCE ZONES To maintain the impact and visibility of the Scruffs logos, it is important not to crowd the logo with graphic elements. A clear zone defined by one complete window, as illustrated below, should be maintained at all times. This is a minimum clearance guide. Always give as much room as possible to allow the logo to breathe. The minimum clearance zone is the X height. This is determined from half the height of the S in the word Scruffs. Scruffs Primary Logo (same rules for text logo) X X X X X 7 logo - clearance zone

8 LOGO - MINIMUM SIZE For legibility and accurate reproduction, do not use sizes smaller than the sizes shown here. When possible, carry out appropriate tests on materials to be used to ensure legibility. 1) In printed communications the Scruffs Primary Logo should not be used smaller than 25mm in width and the Scruffs Text Logo smaller than 15mm. 2) Use the Scruffs Logo without Bar when height is at a premium. 3) Use the Scruffs Text Logo only at smaller sizes when space is at an even greater premium. Use the same clearance zone as on Scruffs Primary Logo for all logo variants. When using the logo in digital communications the minimum size of the Scruffs Primary Logo is 70px. Do not use the Scruffs Logo without Bar or Scruffs Text Logo in digital communications. 1) Scruffs Primary Logo 2) Scruffs Logo without Bar 3) Scruffs Text 25mm 70px 25mm 15mm 8 logo - minimum size

9 LOGO - POSITIONING Where possible on all communications, ideally, the logo should always be top right within an orange box. The logo is postioned centre bottom of the orange box with an adequate clearance zone. If being used on a predominantly orange background (i.e. packaging) a black box with white logo can be used. 9 logo - positioning

10 LOGO - MISUSE Do not distort or stretch the logo. Do not give the logo any perspective. Do not use any filters or effects on the logo. Do not change the colour of the logo. Do not use the logo over backgrounds which are similar to the colours of the logo. Do not use the logo over complicated images or where the background leads to poor definition. 10 logo - missuse

11 IMAGES - CLEARANCE ZONE To maintain the impact and visibility of Scruffs images, it is important not to crowd the image with graphic elements. A clear zone defined by one complete window, as illustrated below, should be maintained at all times. Landscape Images - divide the longest point by 10 Portrait Images - divide the tallest point by images - clearance zone

12 IMAGES - LOGO POSITIONS If you use logos around the image, the Scruffs logo should be positioned top left, and any extra logo s should ideally be top right. 12 images - logo position

13 IMAGES - MISUSE Do not place Scruffs logo over the image Do not place your logo over the image Do not place watermark over the image 13 images - misuse
