What is Thermaltake?

The Thermaltake logo is related to the utmost quality of its goods and a special attitude to its clients. According to the company’s official site, its main mission is to deliver to a consumer a perfect and fascinating experience through the creative and competitive features of the Thermaltake products.
In 2017 a new logo was introduced for Thermaltake premium range of products and services. It was a still more concise wordmark consisting of two capital letters “T” connected to each other by the top crossbars and made in white colour on the background of a black rectangle. Each letter, in the middle of the top crossbar, has a black triangle, as if eating away part of its outline and making the logo easily recognizable. Under the two letters, there is the brand name “thermaltake” made in lower case small white font.
The elegant and timeless lettering from the primary Thermaltake logo is set in an Italicized sans-serif typeface with bold lines and clean contours of the characters. The closest fonts to the one, used in this insignia, are, probably, Arial Pro Bold Italic, or Swiss 721 Std Bold Italic.
As for the color palette of the Thermaltake visual identity, it is based on a bright and vivid combination of orange and red, the shades, which symbolize energy, passion, and motion, and show the brand as a professional and constantly developing one.
