Idea

Building awareness

The National Plastics Expo is the world’s leading plastics trade show and conference drawing thousands of attendees and exhibitors each year. Shell’s focus was on building awareness of Shell Polymers as a newcomer in the plastics industry and as a world class asset backed by a team of industry experts demonstrating their commitment to superior service.

Delivering an unrivalled experience

Creating a show stopping, attention grabbing double decker booth designed to leave a lasting impression through the use of stunning architectural elements, bespoke digital content and a team of experts ready to demonstrate Shell Polymers’ commitment to delivering an unrivalled experience.

A lasting impression

Visitors were able to get hands on experience with the new Shell brand through an innovative 3D model of the Polymers factory along with digital displays which presented relevant data and imagery from the project. Centering the experience around hospitality while also showcasing Shell Polymers’ use of the latest production and logistics technology created a stand out experience establishing its reputation in the polyethylene industry.

Impact

Value for the audience

Shell got the attention of the entire Polymers industry with an award winning stand unlike any other and the promise of transforming the industry with its customer first approach, next level technology and streamlined supply chain. The incredibly successful launch of the Polymers brand created a lasting impression in its customer base generating and exceeding the expected lead generation by four times between new customers and the development of existing relationships.


“I’ve been in the plastics industry for over 20 years and have attended almost every NPE and K Show for the last couple of decades. You put together one of the best, if not the best, customer appreciation event I had the opportunity to participate in.”
