Our Brand Identity The Iluka brand identity represents the purpose and objectives of the Company. The name Iluka is derived from one of Australia s original mineral sands mining locations and is also Aboriginal for by the sea. The identity is composed of simplified elements that represent land and ocean. These symbols, in combination with the colours and logotype, create a brand image that portrays Iluka s professional approach and vision to be the pre-eminent global industrial minerals company. This corporate style guide outlines the correct application and use of the Iluka brand identity. To be effective, the principles should be applied to all external and internal communication. Please refer to this guide when producing material that bears the Company name and logo. corporate style guide page 1
The Elements SYMBOL The Iluka symbol is made up of two main stylised forms that sit inside a perfect circle to help create a sharp and clean shape. The blue form represents the shape of a wave. The water is part of the process in the evolution of mineral resources. The green colour represents the land and the stripes symbolise the rippled sand found at locations containing mineral sands. The use of negative space in combination with the colours, form a simple yet strong symbol that differentiates Iluka from its competitors and positions the company as a leader in its field. LOGOTYPE The Iluka logotype should be reproduced in Eurostile Bold Extended Two, in uppercase only. The careful selection of this logotype complements the Iluka symbol because of its strength, contemporary look and careful placement. The logotype becomes an important element in its own right and works in harmony with the symbol. Thus, creating a strong and memorable brand identity. corporate style guide page 2
