Consolidating multiple business facets under a single coherent brand
The quick take
FLSmidth is the leading supplier of complete solutions, equipment and services to the global cement and minerals industries.
However, the minerals side of the business was less well-known and, after several product and company acquisitions, the market’s understanding of FLSmidth’s proposition had become diluted.
Management turned to CBC to solve the challenge of how to unite multiple business facets under a single, strong and coherent group brand.
Scope
- Brand positioning and Brand communications concept
- Visual identity and design guide
- Internal campaigns
- Awareness, demand creation, lead generation and nurturing
- Print ads and direct mails
- Customer magazines and ontent marketing
- Product launches and aftermarket campaigns
- Films and animations
- Sales support materials
The new brand platform positioned FLSmidth in a class by itself through a complete range of materials designed to give the company a uniform look across all channels.
CBC’s creative strategy was to capitalise on the company’s unsurpassed size and strength. As a single provider of everything customers need, FLSmidth’s offering was encapsulated under the theme ‘One Source’.
The new brand was introduced to 11,000 employees across 40 countries through a comprehensive internal campaign.
The distinctive new look helped to drive business and engagement at key industry events.
“The brand consolidation and refocusing initiative is a pivotal element in FLSmidth’s growth strategy. CBC’s grasp of the issues involved and strongly executed creative campaign have made an invaluable contribution by helping us transform our global image within a very short span of time.”
