  • Well recognised - Used in national TV and press advertising, so will be familiar to householders
  • Tried and tested – consumers like the logo, identify with it and it is known to engage people with recycling
  • Compliment local campaigns – The iconography can be used to compliment local messaging

A range of materials available  –  everything from the Futura font, recycle now mark, recycling images, material stream icons and press releases are all available for use.

Futura Font
All Recycle Now communications materials are set in Futura font.  For local authorities and other not for profit organisations we can provide this font free of charge, however our funding conditions mean we are unable to supply the font to commercial organisations – sorry!  For those who need to purchase the font, we acknowledge that the Futura family of fonts is vast and there are subtle variations between them.  Futura Linotype is a very close match but provided you use the correct weight of Futura font for the application as stated in our guidelines, ‘closest match'  is acceptable.
