HID Brand Guidelines
The HID logo can only be used if you have an existing partnership agreement and you’ve reached out to your HID contact to secure formal approval from the brand experience team.
If you have received permission to use our logo or other trademarks, follow these guidelines.
The HID Logo
The HID logo is the most recognizable element of our brand and is our primary identifier. Correct placement and use of the HID logo ensures consistent brand image across all channels — from packaging to marketing materials. Consistent use reinforces and strengthens the visual identity of the HID brand.
Our preferred logo
We prefer the use of our primary logo for the majority of placements.
The logo should be presented in full color using HID Blue, PMS 287.
There is a reversed version if there are constraints to using the preferred version.
Don’t modify the logo
Don’t modify or distort the logo, change any colors, or add additional elements.
Clear Space Area
A clear space area must always surround a freestanding HID logo. No text or graphics should be in this area. The clear space area surrounding the logo must be at least the size of HID lettering within the logo. For large-format executions such as signs or exhibits, the clear space area may be reduced to half the size of the HID lettering within the logo.
HID Color Palette
Our color palette symbolizes the tone and identity of HID and builds on established brand equity to create a unified customer experience.
You may not use the HID brand colors in your own materials, outside of approved HID logos or affiliation badges.
Primary Colors
Our color palette consists of a lively range of dark to light blue tones, with HID Blue as its center. This range of blue tones provides ample design opportunity to create a legible and accessible structure and hierarchy.
