Rebrand for a global manufacturer

STANDING OUT IN A ‘ME TOO’ MARKET.

Brand Project Overview

For over 50 years, Adam Equipment has been a leading manufacturer of precision scales and balances, serving a wide range of markets worldwide.

Now part of the Indutrade Group and with ambitions to grow, our task was to help Adam stand out from the competition and become the clear partner of choice for dealers and distributors of weighing equipment.

Key Challenges Uncovered

To find a point of difference in the "squeezed middle" of a market where competitors look, price and perform almost identically.

A need to change the perception of the company in the industry.
A need to bring innovation and design to new products.
A brand identity that lacked consistency and flexibility.

BRAND STRATEGY

Working closely with the team at Adam, we uncovered a truth that had never been fully recognised. While competitors could all claim accuracy and reliability of product, customer feedback consistently highlighted something different - the people behind the business. That insight became the foundation of the brand’s personality - the measured problem solver.

Dropping “Equipment” from the name felt like a natural evolution, with Adam presenting a more human and personal identity.

A clear new proposition was developed around three core pillars of the business: people, performance and price.

BRAND IDENTITY

Led by the 'problem solver' personality, the concept Adam is the answer gave the identity its foundation. The equals symbol became the core graphical device - functional, flexible, and a reinforcement of accuracy and confidence. Placing Adam at the centre of the symbol in the logo locks the concept in place visually. Bold typography and a strong, bright orange complete the identity, setting Adam apart from its competitors, adding warmth and energy.
