When we see a logo, we almost never consider where it came from. What was the designer thinking; what does it convey. But just like the organisation it represents, a logo has a history - and a rationale.
Messung's logo has evolved over time, just like Messung has. Over the company's 40-year lifespan, there have been different logos, reflecting the need for change and for making a statement.
Today, Messung's logo is a beacon of the company's strong past and vibrant future; an optimistic statement that the best is yet to come.
1981: A Simple Start
A simple yet stylish cursive font was used to represent Messung's humble beginnings.
'Messung' means 'to measure' in German. The letters 'ss' were interpreted as 'solid state', the technology at the heart of Messung.

A solid one representing Messung's legacy of knowledge and experience; a colourful one to connote Messung's evolution into a vibrant, diversified group.
