The logo, used by the Scandinavian oil company until 2015, features a bright blue mixed-case lettering in a softened futuristic sans-serif typeface with wide contours of the letters and slightly rounded ends of the lines. The electric-blue shade of the letters looked very progressive, evoking a sense of energy, which brilliantly reflects the essence and purpose of the company. The initial logo featured the complete name of the company, “Neste Oil”.

2015 – Today

Neste Oil logo

At the outset of the company’s history, the logo was formed by its name in block letters “NESTE”. To the left of the wordmark was an emblem made in the shape of an inclined diamond. The diamond was divided in the middle; its lower part was painted in cerulean blue, while the upper part was green. The letters of the wordmark were written in black.

After the company was split from Fortum, the logo it used was concise and simple. It contained just its name “NESTE OIL” in deep cobalt blue tone. The letter “O” has a sharp upper right corner that made it look like an oil drop.

The current logo was introduced In June 2010. It consists of the trademark name ¨Neste¨ and an emblem that is easily recognizable on all the gas stations of the company. The emblem depicts two silhouettes of liquid drops. The bigger one is made in bright shamrock green colour and serves as a background for the second smaller drop drawn in light cobalt blue; the area where the small drop is overlapping the lower one is made in white. The meaning of the emblem goes back to the company’s name “Neste”, which means “liquid” in Finnish. It also symbolizes the oil products sold by the firm.
