The Cobanic logo is the most important element of our identity system. Logo is the representative signature, showing the unique personality of the brand, is a guarantee of quality for each product and service we provide. As such, this logo needs to be respected and accurate in the process of using the logo. From these principles, we can apply them in the design of the brand. These principles are fundamental and should not be violated under any circumstances.

1.1 Concept

Cobanic takes the image of the famous Ban Gioc waterfall terrain in Cao Bang as a logo development symbol. In addition, Cobanic’s dried vermicelli products are characterized by eating using chopsticks to pick up, the production of vermicelli noodles before the finished product must be dried on a wooden stick, so we have clearly shown than the curves and thick lines in the logo to emphasize the symbol of Cobanic’s noodles. The two colors blue and beige represent the cleanliness and nature of Cobanic products. Perspective and straight arrangement from small to large symbolize prestige, solidity and development over time.

1.2 Construction

Logo is formed from two components, symbol and brand name.

The icon part is the waterfall icon and the noodle is created from parallel lines and circles arranged together to create a rounded curve as shown in the image below. After being processed, the array will create 3 shapes of hooks placed parallel to each other from small to large according to visual elements that distribute near and far perspective.

The part of the brand name uses the Boldena Bold font, which has adopted a structural variable to create a unique character for the logo. In addition, the white space around the logo is a safe distance that must also be ensured according to regulations.
