As part of our brand we have a visual element called the fulcrum. We encourage its use wherever possible because the fulcrum has become a distinctive part of our brand. The fulcrum is used to provide a distinctive backdrop to many of our communications. It can be represented in three different ways 1. BMJ Group Blue combined with BMJ Blue, 2. As a single line, or, 3. When using the blend option to combine two blends, ensure that the darker area is always closest to the fulcrum and consistently set at 54.65º
