OUR GUIDE AND TIPS TO REFLECTING YOUR BRAND IDENTITY
A carefully chosen colour palette is a sign of successful corporate branding.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE COLOUR OF YOUR COMPANY’S WRITING INSTRUMENTS? HERE ARE THE FOUR QUESTIONS YOU NEED TO BE ASKING.
1. What is your logo’s dominant colour?
When it comes to promoting your brand, the choice of colour is crucial.
More than just aesthetics, colours carry psychological meaning, which gives significance to your corporate communications. It has been scientifically proved that variations in colour affect human behaviour. As your company’s symbol, your logo is the main element of your company’s visual identity. Bring coherence to your brand’s colour scheme: choose the colour palette that will best match your logo’s in order to customise your Swiss Made company pen!
2. What sector of activity do you work in?
While a logo is important, respecting corporate codes is equally crucial when it comes to choosing the colour of the personalised instruments. Companies in the healthcare or environmental sectors will instinctively opt for green, and luxury brands will opt for the timeless elegance of black or white. As for companies that are in tech or innovation, these can stand out with bright colours.
3. Which key value do you wish to convey?
History, brand values: many aspects determine your choice of customised business instruments. Depending on its main colours, your company logo can convey and evoke qualities such as authenticity, innovation, creativity, energy…
Pen, pencil or accessory: whichever your choice of instrument, take the time to think about what key messages you’d like to convey before choosing a colour.
4. Why are you producing a personalised writing instrument?
Are you looking to increase sales by following corporate gift trends, represent the history of your brand, or delight your partners with a high-quality writing instrument? For every occasion there is a well-defined choice of colour.
• For an elegant and timeless writing instrument, opt for classic colours such as white, black, blue or grey
• Would you like to make an impression with a vivid shade that contrasts with the colours that are part of your usual visual identity? Bring brightness to your instrument by selecting hues such as red, yellow, purple or green. The 849™, 825™ and 888™ ranges of pens offer a wide choice of colours. As part of Caran d’Ache’s customisation options, it is possible to customise the colour of your pen further with the PANTONE™ colour of your choice (available from 400 pieces ordered from the 849™ rangeand 1000 pieces ordered from the 888™ range).
