The logo of BXR Industries.

BXR Industries^[1] was a mining corporation on the UNSC colony world of Reach.^[2] During the Covenant invasion of Reach, one of the corporation's mining facilities on the Szurdok Ridge at Ütközet was made into a stronghold by Covenant forces.

BXR appears in Halo: Reach. The abbreviation is a reference to the button combination which could be used to ensure an instant kill in Halo 2.
Some civilians in New Alexandria wear shirts that bear the BXR logo.
One variation of the BXR logo is that of three colored squares, a blue square on the left, a yellow square on top, and a red square to the right, representing the X, Y, and B buttons, respectively, on a standard Xbox 360 control pad, another obvious reference to the button combination.
The shape of the logo seems to be a reference to the chemical sign that is seen on tanker trucks, as it is a group of four side-ways squares inside another, larger square, the exception being that the BXR logo only has three small squares in a larger one.
