With “Dettol, coining a new cultural currency for hygiene in India”, we come to end with our Gold winning campaign features from APPIES Asia Pacific 2016.

This campaign for Dettol, a brand of Reckitt Benckiser India, was created by McCann Worldgroup India. It was their third Gold winning campaign at APPIES Asia Pacific 2016.

Campaign Synopsis

This case study is a classic example of how unearthing a cultural insight can catapult a brand into popularity while
delivering on business results.

Dettol India was struggling with low & stagnating penetration in spite of enjoying 100% brand awareness.

By coining a new cultural currency for hygiene and elevating the brand stature to become the benchmark for absolute cleanliness, Dettol not only achieved its highest ever penetration in its 75 years of presence in India, but further managed to spark a new hygiene ritual.
