Gumdrop Bin wins House and Garden Award

March 13, 2012 Leave a comment

The Gumdrop Bin is the brainchild of Anna Bullus who noticed that not only was chewing gum a material that was being wasted but it was also polluting our environment.  

She set about solving the problem by creating a bin using recycled chewing gum and called it Gumdrop. It’s manufactured from a new plastic polymer using the chewing gum and then moulded into shape.  

Anna has just won The Homes & Gardens Eco Design Award 2012 so well done for this fantastic idea. Give gum a second life!

Another successful night at the B2B Marketing Awards 2011

November 29, 2011 Leave a comment

The B2B Marketing Awards 2011 were a great success last Thursday, 24th November.  

For the fourth year The Think Tank managed the awards event on behalf of Silver Bullet, publishers of B2B Marketing Magazine, and it all went very well. The theme this year combined a 60′s lounge atmosphere with the glitter of Las Vegas, setting the scene for a fun and enjoyable night.  

Jack Whitehall took the stage to entertain the audience and present the awards and after a great dinner and ‘refreshment’ many headed off to the after-show party until the early hours.  

Well done to all the winners and a big thanks to all The Think Tank team for running another successful event.

The Think Tank shortlisted for Best Brand Campaign at B2B Marketing Awards

August 16, 2011 Leave a comment

The Think Tank has been shortlisted for Best Brand Campaign in the B2B Marketing Awards 2011 for our brand creation and development work for Biome Technologies Plc, a leader in the provision of bioplastics.

Following a brief from Stanelco Plc, Biome’s previous name, we developed a new brand to promote the bioplastics bias of the business, developing a new brand identity, collateral and web site and then promoted the brand and business to a diverse customer base through PR and electronic direct marketing.

Biome has seen great results since its re-launch and this recognition of the strength of the new brand is great for both The Think Tank and Biome.

Fingers crossed for the Awards in November.

The Think Tank wins Best Launch Campaign at B2B Marketing Awards 2010 for OKI Printing Solutions

November 26, 2010 Leave a comment

At a fantastic night of mobsters and 1960′s gangsters, The Think Tank secured the Best Product Launch Award at the B2B Marketing Awards 2010 for its EMEA launch campaign for the OKI MC860 multifunction printer.

Communicating the benefits of A3 colour printing at a price comparable to other A4 products, the campaign featured visuals demonstrating that you see the bigger picture with an A3 printer. This media neutral idea was used across the marketing material, both on and off line, and then executed by operating companies across the EMEA region to great effect.

This was one of the first campaigns that The Think Tank had developed for OKI Printing Solutions since winning the EMEA creative account in a competitive pitch.

Liam Bateman, Director at The Think Tank, commented, ‘This is great news and testament to the hard work of both the OKI EMEA Marketing Team and my team at The Think Tank. Well done to all.’

The Think Tank was also shortlisted in the B2B Marketing Awards 2010 for its promotional work with AkzoNobel in the Most Commercially Successful award category.
