The company logo is like a road sign showing the main road and direction of travel. It is a rhombus with a metal frame and a plate with the name of the brand in the center.
The figure indicates the desire for the top, progress, and development. The company’s founder was constantly engaged in improving the technical characteristics of machines and developing new models. Shows a good start. Carl Borgward started the business in 1919 and was a director a year later. And after 10 owned three brands and several firms.
A rhombus made up of four rectangles shows a game with four marks. Their union and separation. At the heart of all processes was Carl Borgward, whose name is written on the seam in the center of the figure.
In 1925 he founded the Goliath brand, and in 1929 he bought former Bremer partners Hansa Lloyd Werken. As a result, the magnate controlled three factories and three brands (Goliath, Hansa, and Lloyd). I decided on what enterprise and what type of machine to launch. In 1938, he added a 4th stamp under his name, and Hansa closed. In 1948, he sold the Borgward brand, and after two years, he bought it. Then, due to the decline in industry and the lack of raw materials, the concern is divided into three separate enterprises.
Brand juggling is well conveyed in the logo due to the chess placement of colors and individual fragments that exist together and separately simultaneously.
The layout of the sign itself is associated with the association of brand logos. The red and white figures are taken from the flag of Bremen, where the factories are based. Their chess alternation was in the Hansa sign. The triangle underpinned the identity of the Lloyd brand, and the metal parts were Goliath.
