The Development Bank of Wales is a leading development finance organisation that offers financial support and investment to businesses across Wales.
Following a brand refresh to re-position the organisation to reflect its new values, services and mission, the Development Bank was looking for a practical and attractive gift to celebrate the successful brand refresh.
In addition to the branding opportunity, the company's commitment to sustainability was a key factor in the decision-making process. Conscious responsibility is one of their new key values, alongside smart collaboration, entrepreneurial energy and objective empathy.
The Eco One Notebook is exclusive to 'Really Good Branding', combining several unique components produced to the highest standards with honest and transparent commitment to sustainability.
Our branded notebooks are manufactured from scratch, providing full coverage printing to the front, back and inner pages, along with a choice of 48 textured covers.
The Development Bank used two of the cover colours available, with half the order produced with white ink on our vibrant orange gmund material and fifty percent on a sunflower yellow with black print.
The materials used to produce our promotional notebooks have been carefully selected to ensure they are sourced responsibly.
The pads are made from sustainable paper, which is printed and glued in the UK before being delivered direct to our clients using carbon-neutral couriers.
"Having the product be environmentally friendly was very important to us, and having a tree planted in our name was great to share with our teams.
We are delighted with the printed notebooks. They look great and have proved very popular with our stakeholders."
Beverley Downes, Marketing Director, Development Bank of Wales
The creative team at the business took full advantage of the eye-catching colours of the Eco One Notebook, with a modern design that showcases their brand and communicates their tagline 'where ambition takes flight' in both the English and Welsh language.
Printed in one colour on the inside with their company logo the notebooks also include guidance on recycling and recognition that ordering the Eco One Notebook also helped support 'The Tree Project’, with a tree planted in the UK on behalf of the Development Bank.
The branded notebooks are being used as corporate gifts for Development Bank stakeholders to promote its brand refresh.
