identity guidelines

Introduction

Anywhere you find hard-working, self reliant people you’ll find Briggs & Stratton. Because for over century, we’ve been there with engines and end products that get the job done. Whether they’re pumping water in a remote village, powering lawn equipment in suburbia, or powering a home during a power outage, people know they can count on Briggs & Stratton. Our brand touches the core values of our customers—people who have a can-do spirit, people who get satisfaction from doing a job well and getting it done quickly, people who take pride in passing their hard-earned knowledge to the next generation. These are Briggs & Stratton people. This is the Briggs & Stratton brand. The look and feel of our brand has been revitalized to celebrate the Briggs & Stratton legacy of self-reliance. These identity guidelines establish the basic elements and rules for using the new Briggs & Stratton brand identity in a way that’s powerful in the market and consistent across all points of contact with our audiences. Briggs & Stratton branding represents our vision and values. Treating it with care and respect helps ensure Briggs & Stratton will endure and thrive, helping future generations carry on this great legacy.

identity: typography

Brand Typography

The Eurostile font family communicates confidence and consistency and provides variations that should meet every need for the brand. This face should be used, without modification, in all Briggs & Stratton communications.

EUROSTILE MEDIUM ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890!@#$%^&*() EUROSTILE BOLD ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890!@#$%^&*() EUROSTILE EXTENDED 2 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890!@#$%^&*() EUROSTILE BOLD EXTENDED 2 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 1234567890!@#$%^&*()

Alternate Typography

The Univers font family can be used as an alternate typeface to support the brand. This font family has been used on Genuine Parts packaging and with large areas of copy, where Eurostile may become difficult to read. This face should be used, without modification and only when Eurostile is not the appropriate font choice.

identity: tagline LOGO

The essence of our revitalized brand is captured in this new brand tagline: The Power Within. The tagline always refers to â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Power Withinâ&#x20AC;? a person, never to a product or engine. It should not be used on packaging. It not only communicates our product offering, it pays homage to the self-reliance of our customers, employees and partners. This treatment combines the primary logo and the new tagline. The tagline art should never be used without the primary logo.

identity: Proper logo use

Our brand logo is a valuable asset. Our logo signifies our ownership and endorsement of products and ideas. Generally, the brand logo should be used one of four ways:

1. As the primary logo or badge on Briggs & Stratton products Examples

Engine Shroud

2. To introduce a collection of brand information or materials Examples

Brochure Cover Stationery Packaging

3. As the brand signature at the end of brand communications Examples

Back Covers TV Signoff

4. As an icon that can bring the brand to mind, show endorsement or indicate participation Examples

Dealer Signage Apparel

IMPORTANT Avoid using the logo as a decorative element, or using multiple logos where one is sufficient. Examples

Avoid tilting and/or tiling the logo Avoid multiple logos on one page

identity: Proper logo use

Our brand logo is a valuable asset. Our logo signifies our ownership and endorsement of products and ideas. When used with another OEM brand, the powered by logo should be treated subservient to the OEM brand so that it is clearly a component of the product brand.

IMPORTANT Avoid using the logo in a manner that gives the appearance of co-branding. Examples

Placement of the logo adjacent to a retailer or OEMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s logo

identity: powered by logo

When a Briggs & Stratton engine is used in a product sold by another manufacturer, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Powered Byâ&#x20AC;? logo is used to call out our brand within that manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s communications. (The actual engines always carry the Primary Logo). Whenever possible, place this logo adjacent to the products powered by Briggs & Stratton. Do not use this logo to call out parts, technologies, service or other Briggs & Stratton offerings.

identity: GENUINE PARTS logo

The Genuine Parts Logo is used to designate parts and accessories manufactured by, or to the specifications of, Briggs & Stratton. This logo acts as the official seal of endorsement and approval. In communications for genuine parts, it replaces the primary logo as the preferred means of introducing and signing-off the brand. It can be used along with other logos when both engines and parts are featured. In some International markets, the Genuine Parts logo will be translated to ensure that the concept resonates in each culture. 3d color

brand use

brand use: staging area & sign off

logo staging area

The staging area prevents competing imagery or elements from creating a distraction that might weaken the brand image. The staging area is created by using a measurement equal to four times the height of the letter â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bâ&#x20AC;? in the logo. The staging area should be maintained by applying that measurement to the top, bottom and sides of the logo.

rules: tagline logo sign-off

When the Tagline Logo is used as the brand sign-off in printed materials, it should be the last word. To accomplish this on single page communications, apply the logo in the lower right corner of the page (while keeping in mind the staging area specifications). In cases where the sign-off is delivered on a separate page, such as the back cover of a brochure, the lower right corner placement is not required. See additional examples on the next page.

BRAND USE: LITERATURE SIGN-OFF

When the Tagline Logo is used as the brand sign-off in printed materials, it should be the last word. As a way to connect our corporate family of brands and services with an individual we recommend using the following literature sign-offs that utilize “The Power Within” tagline logo.

brand use: Brand imagery & Tone

Brand Imagery & Tone: Simple, Human, Confident.

The defining character of the Briggs & Stratton brand is simple, human and confident. Photographic imagery and copy tone should reveal the genuine and self-assured persona that we admire in our customers and ourselves. Photographic imagery should feel real, yet aspirational, featuring people and real-life situations that demonstrate the power of selfreliance, and the satisfaction of a job done right and done well. Similarly, copy should speak with a reassuring, confident voice that is approachable and assures consumers they can trust the Briggs & Stratton brand.

brand use: backgrounds

Logo on flat Colors

The logo should always be presented with strength and authority. This requires selecting appropriate backdrops for the logo. Whenever possible, the logo should be presented on white or colors from the Briggs & Stratton preferred palette. These colors include Black, Red PMS 186 or neutral Grey colors (< 40% black or > 60% black). Textures that meet these same standards may be used as backdrops if appropriate.

Logo on photography

When care is taken, photography may be used as a backdrop for the logo. The background for the logo must not be complicated (staging area applies). It must offer a contrasting value (lighter or darker) and the color of the photography must not command more attention than the logo. Only use approved Briggs & Stratton brand photography with the logo.

brand use: ImPROPER use

Do not alter the proportions of the identity in any way.

Do not place the identity on unapproved colors.

Do not place the identity on complicated areas within photo images.

Do not change any colors within the identity.

Do not use the identity as a device to contain additional imagery or messages.

ENGINES ENGINES

Do not attach any other messaging, such as division

AUTHENTIC

or product designation, to the identity. Avoid configuring the logo as a readâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;through device.

Do not use the logo in any other sub-brand logos. The wordmark instead may be incorporated into a sub-brand logo.

APPLICATION: Embroidery

The logo may be placed on garments and products when specifications for embroidery and overall quality are followed. The color logo should only be placed on preferred brand color garments and products (black, gray/silver, white or red).

Only the corporate logo or wordmark is to be used on the front of a shirt. No additional words or logos are allowed. If other designations are needed, they can be placed on the shirt sleeve. All specialty and embroidery treatments of the logo must be reviewed and approved via gearshop@basco.com.
