THE CHALLENGE
To launch the UK’s first cement-free, ultra-low carbon concrete block. Specifically, WPR was tasked with introducing the product to the housebuilding and contracting sector.
THE IDEA
We knew that the innovative Greenbloc could be a game-changer for the construction industry. By decreasing the carbon footprint of one of the industry’s core building products, it offers a clear path to a more sustainable future.
To focus effort and ensure the product was seen by the right people, we created a campaign to target the top 100 house builders and contractors. Using clear messaging to explain the positive impact Greenbloc could have in reducing CO2 in construction projects and the wider supply chain, we employed a multi-channel PR and social approach. We then developed optimised LinkedIn and YouTube content to reach target customers at multiple touchpoints.
THE RESULTS
The campaign generated significant industry interest, quickly achieving:
