Davco's Bold New Identity: A Construction Branding Case Study

Rebranding An Icon

Established in 1985, Davco is a globally recognised leader in the building and construction industry, preferred by professionals around the world. We helped Davco develop a systematic and well organised visual identity that focuses on its iconic mascot, while taking into consideration the different needs of the brand's target audience.

Strengthening Product Branding for a Trusted Construction Material Provider

THE CREATIVE CHALLENGE
A construction product brand with symbolic value but lacking visual distinction and packaging system
  • Davco needed to express its symbolic values more clearly in its identity to reinforce what the brand stands for

  • Existing visual identity and packaging lacked consistency, reducing the impact of the product range

  • Without a strong, unified design system it was harder for customers to recognise Davco’s products among competitors

  • Packaging was not optimised as a design touchpoint to communicate brand value and quality

THE SOLUTION
Created a cohesive visual identity and packaging system that elevates symbolic value and consistency
  • Developed a brand visual identity with a strong icon and pattern system to represent Davco’s symbolic values

  • Designed packaging that aligns with the new identity, ensuring consistency across product lines

  • Ensured visual branding across touchpoints reflects quality and reinforces trust in the construction materials market

  • Elevated the brand’s presence, making Davco’s offerings more recognisable and differentiated

Recognisable Visual Identity
Focusing on the symbolic values of the brand, the visual identity developed becomes easily recognisable and iconic. The graphic layout is based on grids with a clear information hierarchy, supported by an icon and pattern based system to facilitate the product categorisation.
Packaging Design System
The packaging communicates the product through patterns. The pattern helps to visually represent the classification of the product while its organic profile expresses the ecological qualities of Davco products. The frame provides focus and clarity to the qualities of the product while the product category and name are emphasized through the secondary colour. The icons are designed to simply and visually explain the different qualities of the product. The secondary colour is used to represent the product category.
BRAND TOUCH POINTS

The end result is a seamless brand and customer experience that differentiates Davco while maintaining cohesiveness across its complex application touch points ranging from corporate stationery, website, marketing collateral, advertisements, exhibition stand to video content.
