Colorsteel and DDB Group raise the roof standard

AUCKLAND, Today: DDB Group Aotearoa and Colorsteel have launched a “playful” campaign that aims to raise the standard of how New Zealanders choose the roof over their heads.

Group CD Ben Pegler said: “When it comes time to decide on a roof, it can often seem easier to leave the decision making up to the designers or builders.

“To make Kiwi homeowners pickier about choosing their roofing products, DDB Group’s latest campaign showcases Colorsteel’s legacy of durability, innovation and ingenuity through the lens of some of the most selective personalities we know, the household cat.

“When you’re building a home, New Zealanders should have the confidence to demand a superior roof … one that even your pickiest household member would choose.

“By heroing the true rulers of the house – the family cat – the campaign urges homeowners to be just as picky as their furry counterparts.”

“By heroing the true rulers of the house, the family cat, it urges homeowners to be just as picky as their furry counterparts and actively engage in selecting a more superior roof – one that’s made for New Zealand conditions and a New Zealand way of life.

“They wouldn’t settle for anything less than the best, so why should you?”

NZ Steel marketing head Suzanne McKandry said: “ This campaign with urges homeowners be more particular about a choosing a superior roof – one that will last for generations to come. ”

The Colorsteel campaign is in market now, integrated across TV, print, digital and social media.
