  • Dove Packaging Mucell Technology
    22 April 2014 ZOTEFOAMS plc ("Zotefoams" or "the Company") Unilever to use Zotefoams’s MuCell® Extrusion technology for its Dove Body Wash bottles in Europe, saving up to 275 tonnes of plastic a year Zotefoams, a world leader in cellular material technology, is pleased to note today’s announcement by Unilever that Unilever’s Dove Body Wash bottles will contain 15% less plastic as a result of a breakthrough packaging technology based on Zotefoams’s MuCell Extrusion microcellular technology. The full text of Unilever’s announcement follows: UNILEVER LAUNCHES BREAKTHROUGH PACKAGING TECHNOLOGY THAT USES 15% LESS PLASTIC Newly developed MuCell® Technology will first feature in Dove Body Wash bottles in Europe, saving up to 275 tonnes of plastic a year London/Rotterdam, 22 April 2014. Dove Body Wash bottles will contain at a minimum 15% less plastic as a result of a newly developed packaging technology launched by Unilever today. Unilever intends to widen the availability of this technology to be used more broadly across the industry. The new technology represents another substantial contribution to the target set out in the Unilever Sustainable Living Plan to halve waste footprint by 2020. The MuCell ® Technology for Extrusion Blow Moulding (EBM) was created in close collaboration with two of Unilever’s global packaging suppliers, Alpla and MuCell Extrusion. It represents a breakthrough in bottle technology: by using gas-injection to create gas bubbles in the middle layer of the bottle wall, it reduces the density of the bottle and the amount of plastic required. The technology will be deployed first in Europe across the Dove Body Wash range, before rolling the technology out.

Bartlett at Harvard Business School, Ph.D. candidate Alice de Koning at INSEAD, and Professor Paul Verdin Affiliate Professor at INSEAD and at Catholic University of Leuven as the basis for class discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective handling of an administrative situation.

INSPECTIONNot For Reproduction COPY Harvard Business School INSEAD 1 One Sunday night in July of 1989, Claude Meyer and his delivery team for Ariel Ultra were on a train speeding from Brussels to Paris. They had spent 18 months developing P&G’s first compact laundry detergent for the European market, and now, as they were finalizing the details of a meticulously planned pan-European launch, they learned that Unilever was about to launch a similar product in France—two months ahead of P&G. Meyer, European Regional Vice President for laundry products, and his team were brainstorming responses to their longtime rival’s pricing tactics, package sizes, and a premium-niche marketing strategy, all of which differed significantly from P&G’s European plan. As the train sped towards Paris, they debated whether to change their approach to the French market to meet Unilever’s challenge, or continue with their original intention to implement a consistent Europe-wide strategy.

  • Unilever and Percolate: an Efficient Global Pilot Overview
    Unilever and Percolate: An Efficient Global Pilot Overview Effective, efficient, and consistent content marketing is a universal challenge for brands. Unilever faces additional complexity given the global scale of the company, the number of distinct brands and agency partners, and the varying levels of resource availability and marketing expertise around the world. In 2013, Unilever started to partner with Percolate to help solve this challenge. Percolate is the system of record for marketing, enabling organizations to build effective and consistent brands, regardless of organizational complexity or resource constraints. This case study will walk through specific examples of how Percolate has helped Unilever, focusing on a pilot which saw three brands and fifteen markets use Percolate to improve the performance of their social content, leading to increases in engagement, gains in efficiency, and across-the-board improvement in brand consistency. GLOBAL CONTENT CREATION + Over the last few years, Unilever developed its presence across key social platforms, with Facebook as the priority. Today, all of Unilever’s billion Euro brands have an active Facebook presence, and collectively the company has 100M amassed hundreds of millions of Fans. Unilever aims to evolve its brand Unilever Facebook fans communications to meet the modern media landscape, creating experiences that truly connect with consumers and help to build brand love. Creating content for and managing this network required significant resources from agency partners and Unilever brand teams. Ensuring strategies were consistently understood and deployed across markets was a challenge. + With 400 brands spanning 14 categories of home, personal care, and food products, Unilever has built some of the most well-known and loved brands in 1,000 the world.
