Flintec
Flintec are a global leader in force measurement sensors, with a wide product range of load cells, strain gages, weighing modules and various other specialist products they are the experts in their field. As such it was essential that their rebrand reflected the culture, vision and values of the business. Our work with Flintec included an uplift to the brand as well as responsive and eye catching website. Due to the international nature of Flintec the challenge was to create a brand that would not only represent this but would be functional globally. Visiting the Flintec offices and factories in the USA, Germany and Sri-Lanka was essential for us to gain an understanding of the business operation and what the brand needed to be to uplift this engineering company in an increasingly competitive market.
DESIGN CONCEPTS
Three initial brand concepts that presented a visual link with the high quality and precise nature of the products that Flintec produce. Red and Black were the most impactful and powerful colours to distinguish Flintec from the competition. to be impactful and powerful and to distinguish Flintec from the various competitors. The simplistic font Metronic Pro was chosen and the 'block f' logotype was inspired by the blocks of metal that Flintec cast their load cells from.
BRAND DELIVERABLES
Due to the vast variety of products that would bare the brand it was vital that the Flintec logo looked consistent across all print and digital platforms.
