SD-Druck is a German printing and publishing company based in Bretten, Baden-Württemberg. The firm, formally SD-Druck & Verlags GmbH, operates a commercial printing house and publishes printed materials of all kinds.[1] The company was founded on 21 April 1978.[1]
Design and History
The SD-Druck logo is attributed to German designer Hans E. Scheur, who is listed as the creator of the mark in a designer index of logos and brands.[2] The same index identifies SD-Druck as a printing brand from Germany and dates the design to 1972.[2] This date predates the company’s 1978 founding, suggesting the mark may have been created for an earlier entity or as a commissioned design that was later adopted by the firm.[1]
Beyond the designer attribution and creation year, no further documented details about the logo’s redesign history or evolution have been located in available sources.
Meaning and Symbolism
The mark functions primarily as a wordmark identifying the company name, with the letters “SD” likely referencing the firm’s initials.
Typography and Design
No authoritative documentation has been located that specifies the typeface, construction method, or exact color specifications used in the SD-Druck logo. The design is attributed to Hans E. Scheur, but detailed technical information about the mark’s typography has not been published in accessible sources.[2]
