Dirt Devil: design, brand identity, product and packaging
brand and range building from market entry
Design for packaging has a crucial role in communicating the right product message quickly and clearly. Complex (and even scientific) USP’s have to be translated into direct benefits for the consumer.

strong, distinctive packaging for supermarkets
Not only do we design the packaging, we take the photos too. We have a 400sqft photographic studio in the attic and are perfectly set up for table top digital photography. Cello took full advantage of the complete pack production service.

Promoting new brand id in product catalogue
