00.00 DSV - One Strong Worldwide Brand
DSV needs to have a more distinctive identity in the public mind. At the same time, we
want to point out the position of DSV as the large, fully comprehensive transport and
logistics company capable of handling any task in an efficient and professional manner.
To our target audience, our image is a reflection of our identity, messages and actions.
Therefore, the identity must remain consistent; its integrity must never be compromised
by any unauthorised change of any aspect of our logo.
DSV has invested human and capital resources as well as great efforts in creating its
corporate identity. The official logo is a crucial element to that identity. When used correctly
and consistently, it will strengthen and enhance the image that we are trying to convey.
When used incorrectly, it will undermine our integrity and create a negative impact on
readers and viewers. Even a tiny modification or variation will create the wrong perception.
By following the standards for corporate identity set out in this manual, each of you will
help to protect and unify the image of DSV, one of the world’s biggest transport and
logistics companies.
If at any time you need clarification, or if you have any doubt as to how to apply
the standards in this manual, please contact Global Marketing at +45 43 20 30 40,
e-mail: [email protected].
Best regards,
Jens Bjørn Andersen
CEO

00.01 Payoff / Footnote text
All footnote texts starts off stating DSV’s payoff “Global Transport and Logistics”.
The payoff only exists in english and should not be translated. The payoff can also be
used by itself without the footnote text. The payoff should be used whenever possible.

The simplicity of the new DSV logo is what makes it stand out.
Our logo should always be shown as clear as possible and not be overwhelmed
by other visual elements.

Correct and consistent use of the DSV identity will establish and maintain
the strength of the DSV brand. The logo should never be changed. The following
examples show how not to use the logo.
Identity Don’ts
Do not print the logo in outline Do not place the logo on top of a “busy” image.
The logo should always appear as clearly as possible

Colours and their consistent use are essential for a strong visual identity. Our colours
are specified as Pantone colours. All colours should match the value for ‘coated Pantone’

A grid system has been developed, showing rules and guidelines on how to place and scale the
logo on vehicles. This system divides the trailer into 15 equal horizontal lines. The illustrations
below provide a proportional indication of how the DSV logo is to be placed on trucks. The same
proportional grid system for other vehicles is explained and illustrated on the following pages.

05.01 Clothing
Staff clothes, such as helmets, t-shirts, polo shirts, jackets and overalls, should display a clear
visual link to the company profile. The logo should always be in blue (Pantone 281) unless the
logo is printed on a blue background in which case it should be white.
The size and placement of the logo depends on the type of clothing. The examples below have
been created to provide inspiration.

The grid system begins by dividing the page into 40 units on the vertical and horizontal side.
Corner margins are 1 unit and 2 units on double-sided formats. The grid system is used to
define the size of the graphic framework and the location of the logo.

07.03 Paper Quality
This manual introduces a new look which is classic yet modern and stylish at the same time.
To achieve the best results with this look it is important that all printed material uses the
recommended paper quality and gram weight. If a brochure is printed on too low a gram
weight it will look and feel cheap. If it is printed on a too high a gram weight it can be difficult
to turn the page. Below you can see the recommended paper weights for the different types
of communication materials. Remember you can always ask the printer for a paper sample
before printing.
As mentioned throughout the Manual, it is recommended that you use paper quality
MultiDesign White Original. However, if this is unavailable paper of a similar quality
and colour can be used instead.
