Hi Folks.
Just wondering what typeface 'UPS' are now using in their identity.
http://www.ups.com/
also would like to know what typeface 'Maplin' has been rebranded in.

Cheers

(x) UPS & Maplin corporate faces - FF Dax rip-off, AG Schoolbook {Jan E, Angel}
UPS: Created by FutureBrand, the font is called UPS Sans, but to many of our eyes, it is an adaptation of FF Dax. Perhaps "adaptation" is the kindest way of putting it.
ups: FF Dax (probably customized)
maplin: Chalet from House
About the UPS-Dax quarrel read here.
Cheers Folks. Legends!

Hence why i was queerying.. like here http://www.randgroupltd.com/images/linpave-logo.gif

I don't think Maplin's is Chalet from House mate.
Yeah. You’re right.
It’s FF Schulbuch Fett
nope.. not that either dude. cheers for responding tho mate.
Are you talking about just the Maplin logo or the titles as well? I'm not sure they're the same face.
Maplin logo: AG Schoolbook Two.
