Permatex
Brand and Communications Strategy, Package Design
Before
Greatly increased brand impact and shop-ability with retailers adding more sku’s in first year
Situation
Consumers struggled to find the right Permatex product for their project among the 80+ SKUs on shelves.
Over-reliance on store staff in self-serve stores like Auto Zone, Advance Auto, O’Reilly, and others
Weak brand impact & multi-colored packaging presented weak communications
Solution
LW strengthened the brand identity’s impact and reinstated the Permatex blue background to clearly identify the product section
Created communications hierarchy to clearly separate product families with a new easy-to-read text, icons, and color systems promoting unique product attributes
Our team’s innovative “speed of shopping” research proved that consumers found the correct product up to 14% faster
