Introduction To understand the function and value of the MHI identity, it is important to recognize that every organization has a specific public identity—an identity partly formed by the look of its printed materials, stationery, website, etc. Each element of communication contributes to the overall impression people have of the organization.

When an organization’s identification program is coordinated and intentional, it projects a unified character which works effectively to reinforce all of its activities. In many cases, it also helps the organization to be more cost-effective in its communication efforts by simplifying certain decision-making processes.

The purpose of this manual is to explain and direct the components of the MHI visual identity and communications program, define our graphic design standards and to illustrate how these standards are applied.

Many of the standards depend on relative size, proportion, and position. These have been developed through careful consideration of many factors, both functional and aesthetic. Adhering to the graphic design standards will ensure continuity, a high standard of quality, and a clear, consistent identity for MHI.

Basic Elements

Page 6: MHI Identity Guidelines

6 The Icon

This icon has been designed to provide a bold, memorable mark to represent MHI in all forms of communication.

The icon can be read simply as a star, but upon closer observation can also be seen as five arrows coming together. Proper use of the icon, and how it is combined with the MHI name to form the MHI logo, is described on the following pages.

Note: Use of the icon alone without the MHI name is not allowed. However, the icon can be used as a whole or in part as a graphic element to compliment the MHI logo. MHI programs may use the icon in conjunction with their official logo with prior approval.

Page 7: MHI Identity Guidelines

7 Basic Logo with Tagline &Minimum Size

The icon combined with the MHI lettering and tagline, is the full MHI logo (Fig. A). MHI is always in uppercase letters.

There are no predetermined sizes for the MHI logo. Scale and proportion should be determined by the available space, aesthetics, function and visibility. However, the full logo or the basic logo may never be so small that the tagline or MHI lettering is unreadable.

In print the minimum size is 1.5” (Fig. C) for full logo and 1” (Fig. B) for basic logo. For digital uses the minimum size for the full logo is 250 pixels and for the basic logo is 100 pixels. The exception would be for ICO’s which is a 16 pixels file.

In some cases where the logo needs to be small but the tagline needs to be readable, the tagline can be moved directly under MHI (Fig. D).

8 Safety Area

When the MHI logo is used, a safety area around the logo will ensure visibility and impact. As illustrated, the minimum safety zone measures 1/5 the width of the symbol. Use the safety area zone between the logo and other graphic elements such as type, images, and other logos to ensure it retains a strong presence wherever it appears. Where possible, allow even more space around the logo.

When the logo and tagline are used together, the recommended safety area measures 1/5 of the width of the icon. The distance the tagline has from the logo is equal to the distance between the icon and MHI text.

9 Color

The use of color is an important aspect of the MHI identity. The full color logo should be used whenever possible.

The MHI logo should never be used in any one single color. If full color is not possible then the logo can be in 100% Black, 100% White or Gray depending on the color of the background.

On a dark background the icon may appear in full color while the MHI lettering and tagline are in 100% White.

10 Usage on Different Backgrounds

Here are examples of the correct way to use the MHI logo on a variety of backgrounds. It is important to have adequate contrast between the icon and the background for optimal visibility.

Page 11: MHI Identity Guidelines

11 Primary Typography

One of the key factors in any new identity is the use of a specified type family for text or running copy. Using a consistent family of typefaces visually reinforces the identity of MHI.

Geogrotesque Regular, Bold and Italic are used for the logo and tagline.

12 Secondary Typography

Arial in its various weights and faces can be used for stationery system, advertisements, brochures and other communications when a sans serif face is appropriate.

For business letters or documents Garamond can be used for easier reading.

Protect the integrity of the MHI identity by being aware of the improper logo usage illustrated here. If questions about usage arise please contact the MHI marketing department.

Do not separate icon to stand alone, must use in conjunction with full logo (see page 6)

Do not use an unapproved color. For approved colors see page 9.

Do not blur

Do not distort the logo Do not use an alternative typeface

Do not use lowercase lettering

Do not change MHI typeface color

Do not rearrange elements of the logo

Do not tint or screen

Do not use full color logo on dark background

Do not use full cover logo over a busy image

Do not tilt the logo

32 Written Communications Guidelines

These guidelines will be used for written communication of the MHI brand or MHI program brands.

General CommunicationsCommunication should be written in a professional format with MHI’s standard style, font and size. All communications should be proofread carefully, not only for spelling and punctuation, but also for consistency and accuracy.

• MHI is an acronym and is always used this way - not Material Handling Industry (MHI) • MHI’s tag line is The Industry That Makes Supply Chains WorkTM

• Board of Governors (“B” and “G” always capitalized)• MODEX 2014 (name in all caps and space between show and year)• ProMat 2013 (Capital P and M and space between show and year)• The first use of a name, which will be used as an acronym later in an article, must be spelled out

with parenthesis. (ie: Rack Manufacturers Institute (RMI) … and RMI will be acceptable for the rest of the story).

• Use title case in story titles and sub-titles, unless there is a special case for having them all Caps or lowercase. (Title Case Means Capitalizing the First Letter of All Main Words in a Title).

• For headlines, a recommended size on 8.5” x 11” is 20pt• For sub-heads, a recommended size on 8.5” x 11” is 16pt• For body copy, a recommended size on 8.5” x 11” is 10 to 11pt• Never apply effects such as shadows or outlines to the typeface in a business communication• Do not type in all lower case or all caps• Run all blast emails (emails to a large group or mailing list, including surveys) by MHI

Marketing and Communications for content and date to prevent blasts going out on the same date

Social Media CommunicationsAs an association, MHI is held to a different standard when it comes to its online communications. Certain ethical rules must be followed in social media to keep MHI from violating these rules.

Most conversations on social media platforms are held in an informal manner, so strict application of the MHI writing style is not required for social media communications, however, professional discourse is expected.

• Do not post or link to any materials that are defamatory, harassing or indecent • Don’t promote other brands with our brand• Do not post any confidential or proprietary information in regards to MHI or its members/exhibitors• If a personal opinion must be posted, clearly state to all readers that it does not represent the

opinions of MHI• If a negative post or comment is found online about MHI or yourself, do not counter with another

negative post. Instead, publicly offer to remedy the situation through positive action• If MHI or any MHI brand or program is referenced in any media, all social media guidelines apply

Page 33: MHI Identity Guidelines

33 Social Media

MHI logo is used along with the symbol in our social media outlets. The MHI brand is used in accordance with these guidelines for each platform.

See page 31 for social media writing guidelines.
