The Bayer logo, known as the “Bayer Cross” is one of the most iconic and enduring trademarks in history. It features the name “BAYER” written twice—once horizontally and once vertically—intersecting at the letter “Y” to form a cross within a circle. The modern design utilizes a vibrant blue and green color palette, symbolizing health, nature, and the company’s dual focus on human medicine and plant science. The clean, uppercase typography emphasizes precision, authority, and scientific integrity.
