Basic elements

Phonak Logo

The logo is a unique identification of the brand Phonak. It forms the basis of our brand design and enjoys worldwide protection. It consists of two elements: The wordmark and our claim “life is on”. The icon symbolizes the ear. It is the only logo in our industry that links to the business we are in – hearing!

Logo versions

There are two versions of the Phonak logo. any other versions are no longer valid. It is also not permitted to create your own combinations.


The favoured black variant (top left), classic, on a white background is
always the first choice. For very dark backgrounds (e.g. Infinio),
the white variant (with green dot) can be used.
