Typefaces

Frutiger is available in several different versions: Neue Ultra Light, Neue Thin, Light, Light Italic, Roman, Italic, Bold, Bold Italic, Bold Condensed and Black.
Frutiger is recommended in all sort of forms, packaging, titles in advertisements and brochures, signs and on vehicles.

Times is also available in several different versions:
Regular, Italic, Bold and Bold Italic. Printers may have additional versions, but such versions should not be used.

Times is normally used for large volumes of printed body copy. NB: Also Frutiger may be used on large volumes of text.

Our two corporate typefaces, Frutiger and Times, can be used together in the same document. The whole brochure or document can also be Frutiger only.

Korean typefaces
In Korean language, Frutiger and Times are replaced by the font Gulim.
This font is available in several versions: Regular, Bold, Italic and Bold Italic.

Times is the typeface which is normally used for large volumes of text. This typeface is not as bold as Frutiger, and for this reason Frutiger is more suitable on, for example, headings, marketing material and the declaration of goods on packaging. See examples below in the typeface guide.

Regarding font body it is allowed to use both Times Regular and Frutiger. Each division is to decide which font to use, but they can also be used together in the same document. Use of Italic is just ment for emphasising, single words, highlights etc.

The typeface Verdana is used for web, PowerPoint and stationery.
