History of the Yanmar Logo
The name Yanmar blends the founder’s surname with the Yanma dragonfly, a symbol of good harvests in Japan. For the company’s centenary in 2012 it adopted a new brand mark: the “Flying Y”, a sharp red double-chevron that is both the letter Y and a wing in motion. The mark rolled out across the group from 2013, replacing plainer lettering with a symbol of the next century.
Meaning of the Yanmar Logo
- The Flying Y: two stacked chevrons form the initial and a wing — lift, speed and a harvest dragonfly abstracted into one sign.
- The forward italics: the name leans into motion, matching the symbol’s upward cut.
- Yanmar red: a single decisive red — harvest luck and engineering confidence in one colour.

Conclusion
A wing, a letter and a dragonfly in two red strokes: the Yanmar logo is the neatest symbol in Japanese industry.
