Symbolism
Our new logo inspires the following attributes:
360° Comfort
Design & Durability
Leadership
Superior Quality
Effectiveness
Expertise
In the logo, the degree symbol refers to everything that concerns
temperature, air and heating. It reminds us of the very nature of our
pledge.
The degree symbol emphasizes a completeness, a global solution.
A 360 degree solution. In fact, Stelpro unites all of the aspects of
comfort, completing the circle.
The degree may also be seen as being a superior degree, as in,
Stelpro is the superior degree of comfort. The combination of the S and
the degree therefore become a kind of seal of quality. The Stelpro: °S
seal of quality.

For increased visual impact of the logotype, there is a minimum protection zone on all sides, equivalent to the height of the “O” in “Stelpro”.
This zone should always be free of any visual element, text, image or
other.

Incorrect usage
In order to produce a clear and optimal presentation or document, certain
uses of the logotype are prohibited. Below is just a few examples of what not
to do. Good taste and judgement are in order.
°The protection zone must be respected in order to have the best impact, it is preferrable to reduce the size of the logotype instead of cramming it into the available space.
° When there is insufficient contrast between the logotype and the background, the reversed logotype is the preferred choice on a dark background. A solid color background is preferred to keep the legibility of the logotype.
°The colors of the logotype must not be altered, a continuity is required. The logoytpe is available in color, black and reversed (white) only. See Official Colors on page 5.
°The logotype is not to be confined to a box, circle or any other graphic shape.
°The font used in the logotype must not be altered. Do not type in the signature, use only the official logo available to you.
°The logotype is not to be deformed, the dimensions of height and width cannot be modified independently of one another.
