PRODUCT INFORMATION
US-based New Millennium Nutrients was founded in the early noughties, with a visual style inspired by a tattoo artist who drew all their early artwork by hand. Their initial market was in their home of Colorado and its surrounding states, but they had ambitions to expand beyond.
Using our experience as hydroponics designers, we decided to expand on their unique visuals, while staying true to its spirit. We add photo realism, bringing the quality of the designs up to date, and provided a professional suite of assets, from their website to brochures and beyond, to support their sales message.
By helping them be taken seriously as an international fertiliser manufacturer, we facilitated their expansion, first nationally, then to the rest of the world; their colourful, original product labelling standing out amongst a busy crowd.
