Creative Assembly: Bespoke Backpacks

Creative assembly originally approached Fluid with an idea of their preferred product, but no specific item in mind. They needed a premium bag, similar to some existing bags available on the retail market, the same high quality and finish, but with their own customisations. 

Prices and quantities were discussed before quickly coming to an initial agreement based on designs provided by us. These were reviewed and adapted to better suit the brand, with pantone matched linings, additional pockets, customised zip pulls, and other additional details discussed and implemented. 

The first sample was finalised, produced and shipped to the client for their perusal, and although the quality and style matched expectations, in person in needed those last few tweaks to produce the perfect product. One further round of samples later and we were ready to make the transition to mass production which thanks to our extensive design work went without a hitch!

Paslode: Speakers / Chargers

This was one of the most ambitious projects undertaken by Fluid, requiring the most stringent attention to detail at every stage and in every aspect. 

The dream was to produce a speaker like no other, for use on worksites. It needed to not only run either from a plug or on Paslode power tool battery power, but also charge those very same batteries when connected to mains power. We were given some comparative products to ensure we could match their sound quality, some initial visuals as provided by the client, and the task to find a supplier that could produce the whole thing from scratch.

Well, the supplier was no problem - with our experienced team of international suppliers we knew exactly who to go to. And with their expertise, our guidance, and the client's input, we steadily began to wok on our initial prototypes. Casings were created, colours were chosen and matched, speaker quality was defined and improved, and we were ready to get the product in the hands of our client. Following feedback, materials were updated, logos and buttons were rearranged and a final specification was pinned down. It was then translated into multiple international languages and laid out in the included manual. This was just one of many regulations we were sure to meet, ready for mass production and shipping by air and sea to their multiple global locations.

Bosch: Spark Plug Charging Cables

One of our simpler but more eye catching bespoke products of recent times - Spark Plug Multicables!

Bosch originally approached us needing some electronics to coincide with a launch of their spark plugs. We trotted out the standard items; USBs, powerbanks etc. but also suggested something that could really grab the attention of their potential clients and represent their brand - customised multicables. Bosch already had the design in the form of their functional product, and the cost could remain low as the cables are a standard product which only required the minimal cost of a custom PVC topper.

             The perfect example of a cheap, simple, quick and recognisable product, unique to you and your brand.
