Aquaguard Slimtech
Eureka Forbes product launch

A product launch for Eureka Forbes' Aquaguard Slimtech, a purifier whose entire proposition is that it takes up less wall. The problem was making smaller feel like an upgrade rather than a compromise.

02: The brief

Water purifiers are sold on specifications: stages of filtration, litres per hour, storage. Slimtech's advantage was physical, which meant the campaign had to be shown rather than claimed.

Category convention is a spec list next to a product cut-out. Following it would have buried the one thing that made this launch different.

03: Approach

Lead with the object. CGI renders let the form do the arguing. The silhouette carries the message before a word is read, and the same asset re-lights and re-angles for every placement instead of being re-shot. Type stays deliberately quiet so the product outline reads first at thumbnail size.

04: Impact

Category convention is a spec list beside a product cut-out. Leading with CGI instead let the silhouette carry the proposition before a word is read, and produced a master asset that re-lights and re-angles for every placement, social, out-of-home and retail, rather than being re-shot for each.
