Corporate, Product or Service Identifiers
- Corporate, product or service identifiers are a compulsory requirement for any design seeking admission to the Register. There are two types of identifiers:
(a) stand alone - a corporate, product or service identifier which is a discreet symbol, logo, initial, form of words etc. and which is distinct from the item of clothing to which it is affixed; and
(b) pattern - a corporate, product or service identifier which is used in the form of a distinctive pattern over the entire item of clothing and which forms an integral part of that clothing.
The identifier does not include outlines or boxes which are not part of the logo.
- An identifier must appear at least once on the external surface of each item of occupational clothing including accessories. In addition, the occupational clothing must be designed to ensure that when two or more items are worn together at least one 'stand alone' identifier or an approved identifier pattern should be plainly visible to the casual observer. Furthermore, the clothing must not, after the addition of identifiers, be available for rental or purchase by the general public.
