Pratibha Branding GuidelinesImplementing the Pratibha Brand in communicationUpdated : October 2013

More than a name or a logo.
More than a name or a logo on a box.
And more, ultimately, more than what the box contains.
The guidelines that govern communications for
PRATIBHA products and services are part of a much
larger effort — to build awareness, understanding
and preference for the PRATIBHA brand and
PRATIBHA products and services in the markets in
which we compete. To build a brand that endures
ENDURING BRAND
A brand is a shorthand representation—often
communicated in a single word or symbol—of
everything a company is, does and stands for.
That representation can be seen most clearly
in promotional messages and in the quality of
the customer’s experience in buying, using and
servicing a branded product.
A clear promise, for example, that is
important and memorable to customers. A distinctive,
recognizable personality that is inseparable
from the brand itself, informing not only advertising
and communications but behavior as well
What is a BRAND?What is a BRAND?
CONSISTENCY IS EVERYTHING
Achieving the goal of an enduring brand requiresa conscious, coordinated, consistent approach tocommunications and behavior. That approach isbased on the understanding that every choice andevery decision—not advertising or collateral alone—communicates something to someone about thePRATIBHA brand.
When the brand’s messages are developed ad hoc,focused solely on the needs of the moment, theyhave no lasting impact and represent a shortsighteduse of scarce marketing dollars.But when messages are delivered within a consistentframework and reinforce the brand’s promiseand personality, their impact can be leveraged toboost awareness and heighten brand recognitionand preference. Promotional dollars work twice ashard, serving short-term sales goals as well aslonger-term objectives for the brand .

“Every company has the goal of being
profitable, but to make a difference, it
must have a higher purpose. Our vision
reflects that purpose. It sets the standard
that we as a company and as
individuals, aspire to live up to everyday.”

PRATIBHA : Brand promisePRATIBHA : Brand promise
Here’s how our primary
markets define the
PRATIBHA brand advantage
Target audience of the brand “Pratibha” are all its stake
holders. These include its customers, suppliers, and
employees of the parent company and its Sub brands.
They are individuals who have a distinct taste and are
Elegant about displaying their individuality.
They relish and live the brand “Pratibha”. They are
Fashionable and accept it as a way of life, but are not
victimized by it. Their values are deep rooted and long
lasting. They believe in ecologically sustainable living and
their solutions embody their belief.
PRATIBHA Brand Tagline
The tag line is meant to invigorate employees of Pratibha and so that core values can be internalized by them. It is meant to capture essence of the brand “Pratibha”.
Following is the tagline for Pratibha:
Creating Synergy in textiles...
This stands for the deep rooted social and environmental responsibility which is inherent to manufacturing processes at Pratibha.
Principles of the application of tagline are discussed under “Symbol and tagline relationship”.

The PRATIBHA logo consists of two
elements — the symbol and the
word mark.
PRATIBHA : Brand promisePRATIBHA : Brand promise
This symbol is designed to epitomize evolution of the “Pratibha” brand.This form retains the pyramidal base which has stood for integrity and core values of Pratibha, which remain unchanged over time.
The rolling ball depicts momentum, its color is derived from the rising sun. The horizontal lines have been modified from the previous symbol, and they stand for speed and swiftness.
The logotype “Pratibha” consists of thick and thin lines, they are used to depict an important characteristic of brand “Pratibha” - agility.
The PRATIBHA logo is a unique piece of artwork.The proportion and arrangement of the symbol and word mark have been specifically determined.
The logo should never be typeset, recreated or altered, which could cause inconsistencies that dilute the impact of the brand’s power.
This form should be viewed as a evolution and not revolution of the first symbol.
This symbol is a registered trade mark, and its use by any outside organization or person is subject to approval by Pratibha Syntex Ltd.
This is the only symbol used to represent Pratibha. It is important that it always be correctly used and the following guidelines be strictly adhered to.
The symbol should never be type set, drawn manually, or using a computer. It should only be reproduced from an approved computer file. Care should be taken to maintain the proportions while resizing the symbol.
The following are the colors of the symbol :LeafSun OrangeWhite(Color codes of the above are specified under “brand colors”).

PRATIBHA : The LogoPRATIBHA : The Logo
To preserve the PRATIBHA logo’s integrity, always maintain a minimum clear space around the logo.
This clear space isolates the logo from competing graphic elements such as other logos, copy, photography or background patterns that may divert attention.
To standardize the use of the tag, three sizes are provided for most uses— 38 mm : 34 mm high for regular application sizes, .25 mm high and 22.5 mm wide for small application sizes, and 12.5 mm high : 11.5 mm wide as minimum application sizes. These sizes should be considered the minimum size for print/online uses.

The PRATIBHA logo should be reproduced in color
whenever possible. For specific color values to use
when reproducing the logo (spot or PANTONE®,
4-color process, RGB), refer to the Color Palette
section.
White is the most effective background
on which to reproduce the color logo because it
provides a clean, crisp contrast for the logo’s color
and elements.
PRATIBHA : Color logo VariationsPRATIBHA : Color logo Variations
If color reproduction is not availableor is not a viable option, the logo should bereproduced in solid black or as a full-reversein white out of a color background.
When the PRATIBHA logo is placed on aphotographic image, the image behind the logomust be light enough to provide contrast for thepositive logo or dark enough to provide contrastfor the reverse logo.
Regular : The primary colors of the symbol be used. an attempt should be made to use only these colors.
In one color : Gradation is possible, grey values in the proportion of 80% and 40% should be used as shown.
Single color printing : The symbol appears in black as shown.

PRATIBHA : Logo Uses and MisusesPRATIBHA : Logo Uses and Misuses
On light color backgrounds or tints, the symbol can be displayed in its primary colors.There is never a bounding box around the symbol. All the bounding forms shown are not bounding boxes, they represent the background color.
On dark or saturated colors, the symbol cannot be displayed in its primary colors.
Incorrect use of the PRATIBHA logo compromisesits integrity and effectiveness. The examples of logomisuse below are not comprehensive; they areonly a small sample of possible misuses of thePRATIBHA logo.

Will the logo be acting as an introduction of the brand, rather than a sign off? (Is this the first or
only instance of the logo?)
No. Use the standard logo.
Yes. Move on to the next question.
[The STANDARD logo should act as an introduction of the brand and appear only once per piece.]
Is there Any option for symbol for reverse?
No. Use the standard logo.
[When value of the color is more than 50%, then the symbol will appear on reverse. When the value of the background color is less than 50%, the symbol cannot be displayed in reverse.]

PRATIBHA: Graphic Elements PRATIBHA: Graphic Elements

When applying the PRATIBHA brand’s graphic elements, especially color and photography, it is important to distinguish between Business Marketing-oriented and End-User focused applicationswhen possible. Business Marketing-oriented materials are materials that promote PRATIBHA solutions to a typically more enterprise-oriented audience
End-User refers to PRATIBHA products and services marketed to individual consumers. Because communications for PRATIBHA products and services can often differentiate between these two areas, slightly different design styles are recommended.
Business Marketing communications should emphasize PRATIBHA products and services expertise and commitment to corporate clients. To help reflect this, the Business Marketing color palette relies on darker, more serious colors that reference the logo more directly. Business Marketing photography should reflect the technological benefits that PRATIBHA products and services promote.
End-User applications should communicate theadvantages of being a mobile professional. The EndUser color palette stresses livelier, more animated colors. Photography should focus more on products and the individuals who use them.
The PRATIBHA brand’s graphic style is a flexible system ofelements that visually represent immediate access to theflow of information. This is illustrated through color,photography, typography, and voice words patterns.

PRIMARY COLORS
ACCENT COLOR
Business Marketing-oriented materials are materials that promote PRATIBHA solutions to a typically more enterprise-oriented audience.
The accent color palette is intended to complement the primary colors in the supporting design elements such as headers, subtitles, secondary messaging and the Data Flow patterns, when appropriate.
Variations in color may occur, but try to match the PRATIBHA color palette as closely as possible. Print vendors may have their own values and formulas for matching PANTONE colors in 4-color process. Color variations may also occur on-screen as a result of different screen calibrations and/or software application being used.

PRATIBHA : TypographyPRATIBHA : Typography
To help provide a consistent, unified look in the PRATIBHA brand’s use of typography, the ARIAL typeface should be used on all communications for PRATIBHA products and services.
The typeface to be used for all Pratibha communication is Arial. The weights can vary from 20 normal, to 24 italic, to 36 bold. For special application of type sizes smaller than 6, Arial Rounded MT Bold is to be used.

When color is used as an explicit design element the system calls for pairing dynamic colors with neutral colors, letting one dominate the other.
If your dominant color is dynamic, then your accents should be neutral and vice versa. Green is reserved for the logo or associated products,
but should not be used as a flood or type color including product logotypes.

Photos should document the customer
and/or employee experience in an
authentic way that allows the user to
identify with the subject matter. When
using more than one photo on the
same page a mix of all types should
be used. Never run photos together
that depict the same emotion and the
same camera angle. Consideration
should be paid to pairing images whose
juxtaposition tells a bigger story.

The sizes used for all stationery items are based on
sizes recommended by the International Standard
Organization (ISO). They are based on a sheet size,
A), which is one square meter in area.
The series has been devised so that each format has a
width : length relationship 1:2. The rectangular shape,
When folded in half along the side, results in the
next size down; an A4 sheet becomes A5 etc.
The A and B sheets are in proportion. They are used
for stationery and brochures. The table below shows
the relationship between A and B sizes.

This is perhaps one of the most difficult sign conditions, because the brand “Pratibha” has to compete with other brands for visibility. Please use the symbol in its leaf and sun orange colors.
Always keep the minimum required space around the symbol, because if this is not done then we will compromise on the symbol’s visibility and recognition.
The preferred treatment is PRATIBHA full colour logo on white background. When other conditions and restrictions require a specific background material, individual letters should be used.
When incorporating a monument sign, it is important to consider landlord requirements, city/local restrictions, visibility and other building materials used nearby.
The sign should be appropriately scaled for the location. Be sure to maintain adequate clear space around the PRATIBHA logo as outlined below.
PRATIBHA’s Building Sign Applications
The most preferable sign type is PRATIBHA’s full colour
logo on white background. The preferred colour is
white if the background material provides sufficient
contrast.
Alternating Green and Orange coloured stripes replacing green on facia top will provide a more corporate look with Logos on each side.
Ideal placement of the sign type is outlined below.
This placement can be altered if existing architectural
elements demand such or if lines of sight and other
obstructions limit visibility. On-site adjustments based
on the location of stationary objects should play a
major role in signage placement.

The Designation Board should always be used in the appropriate signature lock-up. The decal should be centred left to right as indicated below and mounted 5 feet or 1.524 meters to the underside of the logo to provide maximum visibility. Other obstructions or conditions may require an alternate placement.
If the door is made of another material other than glass, or if surface obstructions are present, Clear space requirements should be maintained and it should be placed as indicated below.
