3 Common brand elements For all Formthotics material we use a full suite of brand elements, typography and photography. Here is a snapshot of our brand and a quick guide to what is detailed throughout this document. 09 PGE Typography The Formthotics Difference Formthotics are made by Foot Science International in New Zealand, using a unique design and manufacturing process that creates the ultimate custom orthotic. ntimicrobial Formthotics contain Ultra-Fresh, which inhibits the growth of bacteria and fungi that create foot odor and staining, keeping your feet healthy. ShockStop unique foam produced by Foot Science International from a hybrid of EV and polymer foams to provide maximum shock absorption and cushioning. This minimises the impact on your muscles, joints and tendons and eases recovery time after performance. PGE 16 Consumer colour palette Thermoformable Formthotics are thermoformed (heat moulded) at relatively low temperatures and retain the moulded shape. Moulding an orthotic to the shape of your foot provides a truly customised fit.

17 Consumer diagrams When using imagery within the consumer market, there is an opportunity to add in relevant diagrams which incorporate the Formthotics wireframes. Wireframes must sit within a circle, and anchor to a smaller circle highlighting the athlete s foot. Line weights can be white or black and should be a minimum of 1pt. Depending on the image, a white opacity circle should feature behind the diagram to help with clarity. s a guide this should be a minimum of 20% opacity, maximum of 50% but common sense applies especially when featuring black and white imagery.
