Cocoon Group in Bucharest Designed Noroc Strong, the New Extension of Noroc Beer Brand

April 17, 2012 - PRLog -- Noroc Strong is a new kind of beer, but also positioned in the value for money category. An important difference in this type of beer, launched by Bergenbier S.A., is its higher alcoholic level: 6.5%. The packaging design, created by Cocoon Group team, should reflect this diference and be in line with the new Noroc brand essence, as defined in the redesign project finalized in 2011. While Noroc Strong is still an extension, it also has its own personality, based on a new color scheme that helps express the product characteristics: the strength (higher alcohol content), the color of the liquid, and a specific taste appealing to male consumers.

"We sought to build this line extension on a visual level by focusing on defining specific design elements, which point out and underline the masculinity of the brand, especially because Noroc Strong is a product that simultaneously addresses a specific audience: strong men," says Simona Straut, Managing Director at Cocoon Group in Bucharest.

"Noroc Strong enters the value-for-money segment of the beer market in a very appropriate time, according to market researches. Moreover, the success of such a product can be assured by a package design that keeps the mother brand essence, and has its own values to articulate the new product", said Ioana Bondrila, Noroc Senior Brand Manager.

Cocoon Group's team members involved in the project included: Martin Zouhar (Senior Designer), Michal Kraus (Designer), Dana Pandelescu (Project Manager) and Simona Straut (Managing Director). From Bergenbier S.A. side, the project was coordinated by Ioana Bondrila (Senior Brand Manager) and Andreea Luca (Junior Brand Manager).
