For Graphics Teams 2005 (Session opened up by trainer- Michael Bennett) Welcome everyone and thank you for taking the time to join us. This training module was designed for Human Resources and Communications employees. Two more training modules are available - one geared to senior management, the other for graphic designers.

2 Agenda Brand Management The Honeywell Logo
The Honeywell Brand Strategy Brand Architecture Brand Nomenclature Corporate Color Palettes and Typography Global Arc Marketing Materials Internal Communications Unified Web Strategy Additional Resources Questions Here are the topics we’ll be covering today We’ll have time at the end of the presentation to answer any questions

3 Brand Management Honeywell’s name and logotype are valuable assets and the most visible symbols of our company. By using them correctly, we continue to build and protect Honeywell’s master brand Standardizing Honeywell’s collateral helps our customers recognize and focus on our brand A well-executed Identity System unifies Honeywell’s diverse businesses Aligning internal standards with other Honeywell strategies, initiatives and programs builds and strengthens the connection between Honeywell and its employees Part of the Master Brand initiative was to strengthen and improve Honeywell’s Identity Standards. In doing so, we focus our brand as one unified company, which in the eyes of our employees, our customers, and our community, we present an image of quality, integrity and professionalism.

4 The Honeywell Logo Logotype Integrity Never alter the logo in any way
No drop shadows, Word Art distortion or stylized treatments Don’t attempt to recreate the logo with a standard typeface The Honeywell logotype is a custom piece of artwork that cannot be replicated with individual font characters Never use the logotype in a sentence, headline or as part of a phrase Instead, use the word “Honeywell” in the same font as the other words in the sentence, headline or phrase Always reproduce the logo in Honeywell Red Black may be used in a one-color documents (Turn it over Nancy) It all starts with the use of our logo. Using our logo incorrectly may seem like a harmless event, but improper uses only propagate more logo violations. (Go through bullet points)

5 The Honeywell Logo There are only three approved ways to use the Honeywell logotype Freestanding logotype Logotype with rule Logotype in bar There are only 3 approved ways to use the Honeywell logotype. Now before we go any further, let’s be clear about the word, logotype. Logotype and logo are pretty much interchangeable. In the graphics world, the word, logotype refers to a graphical element. If you think of our logos as graphical elements, it will help you understand when and how to use it properly.

6 Freestanding Logotype
Freestanding Logotype Standards A clear zone, known as the control field, always must surround the freestanding logotype No graphic elements of any kind should intrude into this field The width of the control field is determined by a measure equal to the height of the capital H in any size of logotype used The freestanding logo can be placed anywhere on a document, as long as the control field is unobstructed The freestanding logo is the logo most often used now in our company, but it is also where the most identity standards violations occur. Surrounding the freestanding logo is a control field, sort of a “no-fly” zone,. Nothing should intrude into this field. No text, business or product names, no graphic elements or photographs. Do not place the freestanding logo over a photograph. In addition to the rules you see here about the control field, the freestanding logo should not be altered in any way. Do not add a drop shadow or vignette it, do not curve it or add little stars in the openings of the letters. Do not treat it like a word by adding an apostrophe S to create the word Honeywell’s. Remember - the logo is not a word. It is a graphical element and should not be used in a title or sentence.

12 Logotype with Rule Logotype With Rule Standards
Graphics and type must be at least an H-height distance from the rule and Honeywell logotype. An H-height is defined as the height of the "H" in the Honeywell logotype. “Honeywell” should always be right justified Photos, illustration and color may not join directly with the rule The logo with the rule also has a control field. Notice the control field extends out across the rule, not just around the Honeywell. The Honeywell name should always be right justified, leaving an “H” width’s distance from the edge of the document. The Honeywell with rule is used on several applications, including business cards and the new PowerPoint template, which you see here. Control Field or Clear Zone

13 Logotype with Rule The logo with the rule also has a control field. Notice the control field extends out across the rule, not just around the Honeywell. The Honeywell name should always be right justified, leaving an “H” width’s distance from the edge of the document.

15 Logotype in Bar Logotype In Bar Standards
The bar must be reproduced in Honeywell Red Black may be used in one-color materials only The logotype in bar is always positioned at the top of the page The logotype within the bar must be reversed in white only Honeywell logo should always right justified No other text should be placed in the red bar A "clear zone" (or control field) equal to the height of the "H" in Honeywell must be maintained from the bottom of the bar in all circumstances No headlines, product or business unit names, or other copy may intrude on this clear zone Photographs and background colors may adjoin bottom of bar Going forward, the logo in the bar will be used less than it was before. In many cases it has been replaced by the freestanding logo, since our preference is to present the Honeywell logo in Honeywell Red or Black, not white. Notice that like the freestanding logo and the logo with the rule, the logo in the bar also has a control field that surrounds it.

20 The Honeywell Brand Strategy
Modified Master Brand Strategy Nearly 250 non-Honeywell brands existed in 2003 $4.6 Billion in Revenue 200+ brands transitioned under Honeywell Master Brand Brand logos eliminated No product or service logos may be used No brand logos may be used Created unified communications media to ensure consistent theme, style and appearance across corporation Prior to 2003, over 250 Honeywell brands and services were being marketed with little or no association to the Honeywell brand. Today, with the Master Brand Strategy, we’ve transitioned over 200 brands under the Honeywell name. What does Master Branding mean to those products and services, and how does it impact the rest of our offerings? Master Branding means that all Honeywell products and services’ names now include Honeywell in their name; it means all logo or stylized names are eliminated; and all marketing materials and packaging will now have a consistent look and feel across the entire corporation. All Logos Eliminated, Except Honeywell

21 Brand Architecture Standalone Brands Not Master Branded to Honeywell
Not required to adhere to identity standards Each has their own logos, brand colors and unique identity standards Honeywell International copyright line must appear on all advertising, collateral materials, packaging and in all other applications where a copyright symbol is traditionally used. The symbol should read: © 20XX Honeywell International Inc. Honeywell’s offerings include a diverse range of product and services, all now Master Branded with the Honeywell name. But within our company, some exceptions have been made. These are called Standalone Brands and Endorsed Brands. Standalone Brands do not follow Honeywell’s Identity Standards. They have their own logos, brand colors and identity standards. These are well-known brands, like Prestone, Fram, and Autolite. Endorsed Brands are similar, but their logos are co-branded with the Honeywell name in an endorsement line attached to their original logo. Over the next several years, many of the Endorsed Brands will be transitioned over to the Honeywell Master Brand.

22 Brand Architecture Endorsed Brands
Each of these brands has its own logotype, which is used independently on products and communications material Co-branded with the Honeywell name Honeywell Endorsed Brand logotype must be used with the phrase "by Honeywell” Over the next months, many Endorsed Brands will transition over to the Honeywell Master Brand Honeywell’s offerings include a diverse range of product and services, all now Master Branded with the Honeywell name. But within our company, some exceptions have been made. These are called Standalone Brands and Endorsed Brands. Standalone Brands do not follow Honeywell’s Identity Standards. They have their own logos, brand colors and identity standards. These are well-known brands, like Prestone, Fram, and Autolite. Endorsed Brands are similar, but their logos are co-branded with the Honeywell name in an endorsement line attached to their original logo. Over the next several years, many of the Endorsed Brands will be transitioned over to the Honeywell Master Brand. Aftermarket Only

23 Honeywell Nomenclature
Product names Naming conventions - Preferred method Honeywell + Generic Product Name Example - Honeywell RDR 2100 When it is necessary to specify a product or service brand, family or model in addition to the generic product name Honeywell + Brand/Family/Model + Generic Product Name Example - Honeywell Bendix/King RDR 2100 Example - Honeywell Aclar® Barrier Film Product name on packaging and trade show graphics will be in Helvetica. The font may be bolded, but not italicized. Exceptions may be made for retail products The Honeywell logo may not be used in the product name One of the most important aspects of Master Branding is converting the product and service names. If your product name was Product X, going forward the new name is Honeywell Product X. In marketing literature, use this full name in titles and the first reference in the document. After that you may refer to it as Product X. Product names need to be written in Helvetica. The font may be bolded, but not italicized. No stylized product names are permitted and all logos associated with the product or service line are eliminated.

24 Color Palettes Primary Color Palette Additional Color Palettes
Secondary Palette Here are the new approved color palettes. The tertiary palette mirrors the colors selected with the Unified Web Strategy. Tertiary Palette Matches UWS palette

25 Typography Type is a powerful brand tool
Creates a consistent and credible brand style Helvetica has been chosen as Honeywell’s collateral font For simplicity, we only use select weights of Helvetica For internal presentations Arial may substituted Historically, Honeywell has had three approved fonts - Helvetica, Times New Roman and ITC Garamond. Going forward we will be using Helvetica for all marketing collateral and many internal collateral pieces.

26 Global Arc The Global Arc is a graphic element used to unify Honeywell communications Unique look is instantly recognized as Honeywell Used to structure layout and help integrate photos in multiple mediums Gives all Honeywell images a proprietary cropping Reinforces Honeywell’s global perspective and unique vantage point The Global Arc is a new graphic element you’re going to be seeing a lot of. It will be used in advertising, marketing literature, recruitment collateral, trade show graphics, even internal communication vehicles like posters. This new look to our communications will be used world-wide. So whether we’re selling carpeting, liquid polymers or jet engines, our customers will know at a glance that it’s a Honeywell product or service. ADVERTISING LITERATURE TRADE SHOW

30 Advertising Advertising Standards
Across the entire corporation, Honeywell advertising now has a common look and feel Trade advertising can be developed in partnership with D Prime agency We have a new look and feel for advertising. Notice the use of the arc, one compelling image, and the standardization of the layout. One important focus of the new collateral standards is the corporation’s desire to simplify our messaging. Throughout the materials you’ll see more white space, less text and greater reliance on strong images. It’s a different mindset.

49 Contact Communications for Promotional Items
Promotional Items Standards (Internal and External) Promotional items (giveaways) should be customized with the Honeywell logotype ONLY Use red freestanding logotype, if color is an option. Black, if it is not. All rules regarding the Honeywell logotype must be followed No other logo or icon is permitted Promotional items compliant with Identity Standards may be ordered from Corporate Express All orders for promotional items should be sent through Communications Communicators are aware of new identity standards Leverage volume pricing by using a limited number of vendors Promotional items have long been the source of a lot of waste, due to over-customization. Across the corporation there are cupboards full of unusable promotional items because they have a date or event name on them or a product name that has since changed. Going forward, promotional items should be customized with only the freestanding logo. No other logo or graphic element is permitted. In rare instances, when promotional items must use a second imprint, there are very strict guidelines. Please check the website for full details. Contact Communications for Promotional Items

50 See Details on Brand Management Website
Product Packaging Product Packaging Standards New standards are flexible enough to meet requirements of various business units and wide variety of products Honeywell logo prominent on packaging New product naming convention must be followed Some exceptions may be made for consumer retail channels Another aspect of the Master Branding are the new standards in product packaging. Within each SBG, there are Brand Council team members who can assist in redesigning product packaging. See Details on Brand Management Website

51 Brand Compliance Review For Brand Compliance
To ensure brand compliance, Honeywell has enlisted D Prime, our advertising agency to review new collateral pieces Compliance requirements and instruction are posted on the Brand Management website Adjust timelines to accommodate compliance review D Prime will be available on an on-going basis to answer questions about the new standards D Prime is not responsible for reviewing, approving or proofreading content D Prime, our advertising agency, has been tasked to help us launch the new collateral standards. Communicators will be required to forward their digital files to D Prime for review. D Prime will not review content, only compliance to the new graphic standards.

52 External Notes Things You Should Know About External Changes
There are new visual standards for vehicles Required on new vehicles only All new vehicles ordered through Fleet Services (U.S.) Facility signage will remain the same Most applications that utilize a white logo are being eliminated Most applications that utilize the Honeywell logo in the bar are being eliminated Guidelines for the posters are relatively simple. The look and feel follows the new focus on simplicity and limited text that we’ve seen in other sections of this training.

53 Internal Communications
What has changed? Internal logos Naming guidelines PowerPoint® Organization Announcements Internal newsletters Internal posters guidelines Business cards/stationery An unprecedented change is happening within our company - Internal Communications mediums will now reflect external designs, which in turn will create a more integrated and cohesive look for our entire company.

54 Internal Logos No new logos, graphic symbols or other graphic element for business units, departments, initiatives, programs, teams, internal campaigns or presentations will be allowed Honeywell does not anticipate granting further exceptions to the graphic symbols and logos standards Why? Logos compete for attention and detract from the Honeywell logotype, which is our company’s primary identifier Developing and reproducing internal logos consumes valuable company resources The proliferation of a large number of unrelated logos create a disjointed image and runs counter to the sense of brand unity An important change is the elimination of internal logos and taglines. This directive falls right in line with the external Master Branding effort. Unrelated logos and messaging dilutes the focus of the Master Brand.

55 Internal Logos What is a logo?
An identifying symbol, statement, graphic element, or words written in a stylized font that defines a product, service, place or organization. As communicators you’re going to be asked this question - What is a logo? A logo isn’t just a graphic element or icon, it’s even a stylized font. Coca Cola or Kellogs, are great examples of how stylized writing can serve as a logo.

56 PowerPoint® PowerPoint® Standards
The Honeywell logotype with red rule appears on the top of each interior slide Standard white background make data easy to read Use the correct font (Arial) and the correct font size for each line of copy or level of bullets 2-up and 4-up templates use smaller fonts Do not resize font to include more text The optional "Walk-Away Message" may be used at the bottom of each slide The “Walk-Away-Message” may be white text in a red box or simply red text Include “Honeywell Confidential” notice when necessary Additional PowerPoint® templates are available for satellite broadcast and rear screen projection Honeywell has a new PowerPoint template.
