Guides for use
Using the amfori logo and boilerplate
amfori is our all-encompassing brand which
embodies our holistic approach to open and
sustainable trade. It brings together members
all across the world with very different activities
but shared values.
To highlight they are part of amfori, members
can use the amfori logo together with a short
boilerplate which identifies them as such.
Members cannot use the amfori logo without the
boilerplate. This use is reserved exclusively for
official communication by the organisation.
As part of their corporate communication
members also have the option to communicate
the specific service they are part of (be it amfori
BEPI and/or amfori BSCI) within the boilerplate.
The boilerplate text should only be one of those
provided by amfori and cannot be altered.
6 I
Placing the boilerplate in an appropiate way
To place the boiler plate next to the logo,
members can choose between a landscape and
a portrait version depending on where they will
place it.
Both are valid options at all times provided the
same proportions are kept and the boilerplate
and logo respect the minimum size and are
legible.
