rendered and should never be altered in
any way.
As part of the ProStar logo, the ownership
statement by Praxair is always italic and
located in a fixed position under ProStar.
The ownership statement should always
appear on all packaging and equipment in
the position illustrated on this page.
The only exceptions would be on small
promotional items or when the Prostar logo
is smaller than 1" wide.
Distributor names, phone numbers, part
numbers, products, advantages or slogans
should never be combined with the
ProStar logo.

The two-color version of the ProStar logo
should be used for all packaging when pos-
sible. If usage requires that one color be
used, the logo should appear in black or
white.

Area of Non-Interference
The protected area
around the ProStar logo
is equal to the height
(X) of the “r” in ProStar.
The area of non-interference refers to the
minimum amount of space that separates
a logo from other elements such as copy,
pictures or logos. This space requirement
is important for visual impact and legibility.
The area of non-interference is determined
by the height of one of the letters in the
logo and is referred to as the “X” height.
The area of non-interference around the
ProStar logo should be equal to the height
of the letter “r” in ProStar.
This distance, as shown below, should
be considered the minimum uninterrupted
space surrounding the logo.
The ProStar logo, whether used with or
without the ownership statement, should
always be freestanding and sufficiently
distinct from all other copy and graphics.
