ATOFINA launches its visual identity
ATOFINA launches its visual identity
Keyword Atofina
Atofina, said to be the world's fifth largest chemical company, and the chemical branch of the oil group TotalFina and Elf, has adopted its own visual identity.
The logo (Plate 2) symbolises the various components of the new company. The emblem has been adapted from the FINA red shield, now blue, with, in its centre, the delta of the former Elf Atochem logo.
Plate 2 The Atofina logo
The font is taken from the typeface of the TotalFinaElf logo and includes the delta of the former Elf Atochem logo as first and last letters.
Created in April 2000 from the merger of the chemical, petrochemical and oleochemical activities of TotalFina and Elf Aquitaine, ATOFINA represents pro forma sales of 17.4 bn euros in 1999.
With 70,000 personnel around the world, ATOFINA ranks among leaders both in Europe and in the world in each of its activities: petrochemicals and plastics, intermediates and performance products, and specialities.
