Brand Book
We aim to help people maintain or regain their freedom of movement. We work towards this aim by providing outstanding innovation and technology leadership, a large range of services and the global presence of our sales and service network. We try to see the world through the eyes of our users and customers: with respect, courage, and commitment. Our qualified employees worldwide make this mission come to life.
Why change anything? Ottobock has been synonymous with quality since 1919.
Foreword. My father and I did always agree about this: For Ottobock to remain ahead of the competition, we need to constantly develop new products and services. We also have to give more attention to customer needs and experience: all aspects of their interaction with our products, our services, our company and our people. Ottobock is a brand of the 21 st century. Ottobock has a set of unique brand values that are part of our DNA. Our brand is defined by how we present these values to our customers, to our own employees and to everybody we touch to get ready for the digital future. This book tells you about our brand values and shows how we intend to visualize them. Our future visual voice is defined by the elements of Corporate Design as shown in these pages. I am asking all of you to get behind this message. We need to live up to our values and show the world, emerging markets as well as developed markets, and more consumer-driven markets that Ottobock continues to deliver quality for life, more than 90 years after my grandfather started the company. Yours sincerely,

Who we are. A pioneer like Ottobock must have had strong faith in the future when he laid the foundations for the orthopedic industry. As a young entrepreneur he was totally convinced of his ideas: to make innovative products so thousands of people could regain quality of life as well as their independence. The success story of a company with a great vision and high aims for itself and our time began in Berlin, continued in Thuringia and then, after 1945, in Duderstadt. Ottobock s first and foremost task is to secure maximum freedom of movement and involvement for people who are mobility-challenged. As early as the 1950s, Ottobock pioneered new materials and introduced major inventions, quickly becoming the first real global player in this industry. Our founder already knew how important it is to see the world through the eyes of our patients, users and customers. It is within this tradition that we keep on developing and improving not only our products, but also our brand. Why change anything? 10
Why change anything now?
The world won t wait. The pace of change is relentless, even for a market leader like Ottobock. Seven reasons force us to think about the future of our brand: The emerging markets are but one example for new opportunities. Ageing population changes demographics. New target groups become interested in our products. Our product range gets more complex all the time. Services become more important. The competition is catching up, we aim to stay ahead of them. The future is digital. Why change anything now? 14 15 Why change anything now?
What does the marketplace tell us? We asked our customers and partners what they think about us. They told us that they respect us as reliable and responsible partners, but they also took issue with a few things we need to work on: Our perfectionism sometimes makes us appear unapproachable. We revolve too much around ourselves and only seem interested in technology. We celebrate our market leadership more than necessary. Our prices are often too high, pushing our products into the realm of luxury. How can we change this perception? 17 Why change anything now?

Brands secure success. So what makes a brand? The consumer s idea of a product. David Ogilvy, 1951 However: Brand Marketing
Brands are like good friends. They inspire us and give us direction. If they succeed in doing so, we stay faithful to them. If they don t deliver on their promise, we look for alternatives. 27 Brands secure success.
Brands influence our perception. Testers knew what they were drinking. A strong brand is a business asset. Its value is measured by taking into account the many ways it benefits a company from attracting talent to delivering on customer expectation. The brand strength measures its ability to deliver expected future earnings. Testers did not know what they were drinking. 65% Coca-Cola tastes better 23 % Pepsi 51% Pepsi tastes better 5 % doesn t matter 44 % Coca-Cola 12 % doesn t matter

Everyone of us needs to live and breathe the essence and the values of our brand in our daily work. As actions speak louder than words, our behaviour will be the benchmark for others. This is a big responsibility, and our Brand Ambassadors will be guiding us along this difficult path. Tone of Voice 54
Our new Corporate Design.
The company name needs to be easily understood across diverse cultures and languages. Colours give strong signals and grab attention. Images are informative and emotional at the same time. Typography is visual language. An extra element can be playful, surprising, unique and even decorative. The elements of our Corporate Design define our visual style. This is what we look like. Corporate Design 58
The history of our logotype: 1919 The Ottobock signature changed over time. Starting from the founder s handwriting, it evolved into a well-known logotype, showing its heritage but eventually also its age. Variations of our logotype ORTHOPÄDISCHE INDUSTRIE KG 3428 DUDERSTADT W - GERMANY 2002 Corporate Design 60 61 Corporate Design
The new logotype: The new logotype takes Ottobock into the 21st century. The dot after the name implies an internet address: it points to the digital future. The logotype is now legible for people not familiar with historic German signatures. The traditional handwritten mark stays around as a seal of quality. It brings consistency and helps protect the original brand name. Corporate Design 62 63 Corporate Design
The circle. Basic shape and symbol in one: If we observe the movements of the human body and our own products, we can always describe them with circular or spherical shapes. They function as joints and hinges, as connectors between man and technology. They symbolise touch, movement, mobility. Corporate Design 64
circulating turning hinge moving connecting
The claim circle and Ottobock: Two circles move around each other. They can change their position and size and they re even recognised when they don t appear complete. The smaller circle connects the Ottobock claim to the bigger circle, which stands for the company and all its products. Together, they give us a colourful and dynamic symbol which can adapt to messages, media and technology. Corporate Design 68 69 Corporate Design

Outlook for Ottobock: We ll provide an online Brand Management System to make the brand experience come alive. This platform will supply the tools necessary for the introduction of the new brand, e.g. templates, style guides, downloads. We ll train all employees and external partners on Ottobock s future communication style (agencies, photographers, suppliers). We ll check and revise our attitude and actions vis-à-vis all target groups (Corporate Behaviour). Each Brand Ambassador will be provided with everything needed to help understand the new brand: a film communicating the most important messages; presentations; a Brand Book for all employees. Our new brand in its entirety will be visible to the public for the first time at the Leipzig Fair in May 2012.
