  • Press Release
    Press Release Stockholm October 7, 2014 SCA’s Hygiene Matters 2014 consumer survey; Continued global need for increased access to hygiene products and knowledge Hygiene Matters 2014 is the fourth global consumer survey commissioned by leading global hygiene and forest products company SCA. The aim is to raise awareness among decision makers, experts and the general public globally, of the connection between hygiene, health and wellbeing. SCA also aims to contribute to a more knowledge-based public dialogue that strengthens the possibility of improved hygiene for women, men and children everywhere. The theme of Hygiene Matters 2014 has been “Women and Hygiene”. SCA aims to make a difference to people’s everyday life by providing sustainable personal care, tissue and forest products under many strong brands such as TENA, Tork, Libero, Libresse, Lotus, Nosotras, Saba, Tempo and Vinda. The 2014 Hygiene Matters survey results reinforce SCA’s determination to work even harder to meet women’s needs and desires when it comes to personal and intimate hygiene for themselves and their families. The Hygiene Matters 2014 consumer survey clearly shows that there are still unmet needs among women globally both when it comes to hygiene products and solutions, as well as raising knowledge about personal hygiene that could help combat taboos. “This year’s Hygiene Matters survey results show that SCA’s work is relevant and there is still a lot to do for women’s access to hygiene products and solutions, and explaining the close link between hygiene and health. About 80 percent of SCA’s consumers are women.

  • The Journey to Living Fearless
    THE JOURNEY TO LIVING FEARLESS Category : Marketing Capabilities Client : SCA Authors : Pippa Morris & Bridget Angear AMV BBDO Contributor : James Drummond AMV BBDO THETHE CHALLENGECHALLENGE SCA is a global leader in personal care and has a portfolio of incontinence products, baby diapers and feminine care products. SCA is the 4th largest global feminine care company. Founded in the nineteen twenties, it has always followed a model of acquiring established local brands to expand their global influence rather than attempt to enter the market as a new brand each time. Whilst this makes good financial sense in the short term, it does impact global marketing efficiencies because it requires a more federal state marketing model where each established brand has something different to say. It meant that each market had to spend time and money on their own creative development, production, research and media planning. The task was to get local SCA Femcare marketing directors and managers (currently happy with how things were in their own markets) to adopt a single global creative platform, uniting a medley of different brands. And prove it’s value by reaching the new and steep sales growth targets implemented under this plan whilst simultaneously making significant time and cost savings for the business. SUCCESSSUCCESS WOULD WOULD BE… BE... Getting Europe, Australia and Asia (Malaysia) to adopt Live Fearless by 2015 Remaining regions taking positive action to move across to the Live Fearless platform. Improving marketing efficiencies through time saved in creative development, media planning and research across markets Gaining financial savings from adopting a centralised communication model Meeting the aggressive sales growth targets put in place for the new global positioning.

  • Bodyform/Libresse: #Bloodnormal
    Bodyform/Libresse: #bloodnormal Source: Cannes Creative Lions, Shortlisted, Creative Effectiveness Lions, 2019 Downloaded from WARC Bodyform, the feminine hygiene brand, used a digital film to break taboos and connect with women globally. Bodyform wanted to be the brand that took risks and used a smart media mix to help shift society's stigmatising attitude towards periods and compete with brands such as Always. Bodyform realised that you can't be what you can't see, therefore it needed to show actual periods for people to feel normal about them. At the heart of the multi-media campaign was an online film which showed a world where periods are normal, this was supported by playful period GIFs, the incorporation of negative reactions in reactive social videos and even pad-shaped lilos given away to the public. The #bloodnormal campaign reached over 800 million people, with 62% of women having a more positive opinion of the brand after viewing the advert and 35% viewing Bodyform as a brave brand. Campaign details Advertiser: Essity Brand: Bodyform/Libresse Agency: AMV BBDO London Country: Global Objectives "This is what happens when whores and pimps become marketers." This is the story of what happens when you decide to break toxic taboos related to your category when everyone has been too scared or oblivious to even touch on them. Or, as some haters said, "this is what happens when whores and pimps become marketers."1 2 Our #bloodnormal campaign encountered a lot of visceral rejections and negativity from inception to implementation. But the positive impact it's had has gone to show that sometimes, it's worth pissing off some people to make things right for many more.
