# Strengthening branding after mergers and acquisitions

### Strengthening branding after mergers and acquisitions

Branding, Design

### The challenge

Essentra’s global business spans several divisions from Components to Filters, Packaging and Tapes. A series of mergers and acquisitions resulted in a diverse offering, with multiple audiences, industries, geographical locations and organisational cultures and so a strong encompassing brand was required to avoid a siloed, disjointed company.

### The approach

A strategic review was undertaken and Essentra needed a partner that fully understood the nuances of their business. Working with Essentra's Senior Leadership Team, we analysed and translated the insights and research findings into a clear and cohesive brand that aligned with their vision to be practical, experts and easy to do business with.

The process included the development of primary and secondary logos, colour palettes, tone of voice, application guidelines, templates, and branded assets. We also developed an internal proposition toolkit, strategy and proposition graphics, persona animations, and customer infographics.

Their relationship driven approach to working with us over the years has really set them apart from the crowd... They always deliver to a high quality and pose thought provoking ideas for us to consider when tackling a new challenge. Taking the time to understand me, my team and the business really takes the experience (and output) to the next level.
