Canopy Graphics Careful consideration is paid to the placement and orientation of canopy graphics. A typical canopy consists of color graphics, wordmarks, and logos. • The primary elevation for the wordmark is determined by primary and secondary traffic flow. • The application of canopy graphics should follow the same basic placement as illustrated on page A2. • Factors that may restrict the use of additional wordmarks will include canopy size, visibility and local codes. The size of wordmarks and logos is dictated by the height of the canopy fascia (see Canopy Height & Length General Guidelines table on page F6). Important Note: Unauthorized Signage on Canopy Under no circumstances is it acceptable to install or display signage on the canopy fascia of either a temporary or permanent nature without prior, written authorization from Valero. This includes reader boards, banners, promotional signs and LED price signs. Canopy Poles Canopy poles will typically be painted Thundercloud light gray with blue and yellow column decoration. • Canopy Pole widths (square or round) must be a minimum of 16” to receive the full treatment which includes the vinyl Valero letters. • Canopy poles adjacent to the building should be painted Thundercloud Gray • Columns with cladding or masonry finish will not receive the full treatment. Please contact the Project Management Team for approved options. Important Note: Unauthorized Signage on Canopy Poles Under no circumstances is it acceptable to install or display signage on the canopy poles of either a temporary or permanent nature without prior, written authorization from Valero. This includes banners, promotional signs, pole wrap signs, warning decals, handwritten signs and notices, etc. In addition, attaching windshield service centers and towel dispensers to canopy poles is prohibited. Instead, each fuel island should be equipped with at least one free-standing, combination windshield service center/ trash receptacle.
