WELCOME
This guide provides you with the tools needed to properly segment products using
the refreshed Fast Lane packaging look. It should be used as an addendum to the

coordinate with other Fast Lane branded products and to heighten impact at retail,
ensure visual consistency, grow brand awareness and increase your sales.
This style guide has been designed to be user-friendly and to ensure visual
consistency across all brand segments—all for maximum impact. It is important
that these guidelines are followed as closely as possible to minimize the need
for corrections and maximize production speed.
