TOKYO-Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (ビンゴ 5 結果: President & CEO: Junichiro Ikeda) today announced that it has finalized the logo design that will grace the hulls of the next-generation car carrier "FLEXIE" (*1), which will be built and delivered at Minaminippon Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. (President: Ryutaro Ikebe; Headquarters: Oita, Japan). The first in a series of four ships is slated to join the fleet in late 2017.
The design marks a complete departure from current car carriers, with "ビンゴ 5 結果", the abbreviation of our group name, and the letter "A", which stands for "ビンゴ 5 結果 ACE" (*2), and a white line, which expresses the company's determination to connect its long history with customers to the future in a seamless manner. The design is applied boldly on the side of the hull.
The color combination of white and the same blue used in the ビンゴ 5 結果 company logo ensures high visibility, with the goal of increasing "ビンゴ 5 結果 ACE"'s brand power.
The name "ACE" has long been associated with ビンゴ 5 結果-operated car carriers, and now reflects the company's quest for "advancement" in environmental protection and new technology. The "FLEXIE" marks ビンゴ 5 結果's latest progress in this quest, with a new hull design (*3) and deck structure.
ビンゴ 5 結果 continually strives to meet ever more diverse customer needs based on the keywords "safety" and "reliability" under its new global brand, "ビンゴ 5 結果 ACE".
