ITU Branding Guidelines 2011
This guide establishes the standards for the consistent, accurate application of the ITU logo,
its brand and its supporting elements in all media, including online, broadcast, interactive
and print.
The logos and their elements must be reproduced only in the formats displayed in these
standards. Under no circumstances may the logos be modified in anyway.
Please observe the principles established in these standards. This will ensure all material
remains true to the spirit of the ITU design and brand identity.
Please use the attached colour swatches as a guide and ensure that final product matches
the colour swatch.
For questions or concerns about the usage of the elements in these standards, approval
of artwork or additional branded items not included in this guide, please contact:
