New Measurand brand launch

Measurand launched its new logo and redesigned website with a staff party today. Erika May, Senior Marketing Manager, revealed Measurand’s new brand—a stylized M along with a crisp and modern sans serif letterform—to staff members during the weekly meeting.

Chris Gairns, Director of Sales, and Rhonda Schroeder, Sales Administrator hand out t-shirts and water bottles for staff to celebrate the new logo’s launch.

Marketing Coordinator Robert Praeg models a fresh t-shirt sporting the new Measurand logo.

Monkeycakes, a local Fredericton bakery custom made Measurand cupcakes for the launch party.

A special thanks to OrangeSprocket for designing Measurand’s new brand look and developing the new website. The result is culmination of the work and collaboration of many talented people over the last four months. Measurand is extremely excited to continue to grow and share this platform for our customers and staff.
