What a one-colour logo is for
One hue, all the shading
Every pixel keeps its brightness and takes the colour you choose. Dark parts become dark versions of that colour and light parts become light ones, so the internal structure of the mark survives instead of collapsing into a solid blob.
Why manufacturing asks for it
Embroidery uses one thread colour per pass, screen printing uses one screen per ink, and engraving has no colour at all. Each additional colour is a real cost, so a one-ink version is often the difference between a quote you accept and one you do not.
It is usually in the brand book
Alongside the full-colour and mono versions, most guidelines specify a single-colour variant and the exact ink to use. Paste that hex into the picker and you have the asset.
Transparency is preserved
Only visible pixels are recoloured. A transparent logo keeps its alpha channel and silhouette, so it drops onto any surface unchanged in shape.
One colour versus a silhouette
This keeps the shading, so a mark with overlapping shapes still reads as separate elements. A silhouette flattens everything to one flat shape. If the manufacturer wants a pure cut shape rather than a tonal one, they want a silhouette instead.

Where single-ink versions are required
Embroidery

Engraving and etching
Give a fabricator a mark with no colour to interpret.
Stamps and seals
Turn a full-colour mark into something a rubber die can reproduce.
