Swedish term or phrase: rapportmönster
This term is used in a company manual about branding/identity. This chapter deals with packaging and wrapping:
A. Produktförpackning
När vi skapar unika förpackningslösningar använder vi en generisk lösning som bygger på ett rapportmönster av vår logotype på gul botten.

B. Produktemballage
När vi förpackar flera av våra produktförpackningar i ett enhetligt emballage använder vi samma rapportmönster av logotypen direkt på en kartongyta eller dylikt.

repeat pattern
Explanation:
In weaving, this is called a repeat weave, but it is used on all kinds of surfaces.

It is a motif that is repeated, possibly mirrored in alternative repeats, to fill out a surface.

This one would be the logo repeated in rows or for instance offset to give a diagonal pattern.
