Bezier has scooped a gold award in this year's British POP (Point of Purchase) Awards for its Cuprinol Wood Care Range print campaign.

Bezier has scooped a gold award in this year's British POP (Point of Purchase) Awards for its Cuprinol Wood Care Range print campaign The permanent on shelf unit, which was designed and printed by Bezier battled against six other contenders to win the home and garden category of the awards

It was designed not only to create stand out in-store but more specifically to simplify the customer buying decision in a category that research has shown customers find difficult to shop.

That was recognised by judges who said the unit, 'merchandises the products together very well and makes it very easy to choose the product you need'.

Clear branding and consistent communication were also cited as key factors in the display's success.

The stand appeared in Focus and independent DIY outlets earlier this year and included shelf cladding, which used woodchips with product applied.

It also used colour to separate categories of product, customer flow charts to aid the buying decision and a leaflet dispenser to make shopping easier and give product guidance.

James Wilson, category marketing co-ordinator at Cuprinol brand owner ICI, said: "Making our products 'shopper-friendly' is extremely important to us, particularly with the complex wood care range and so we were delighted with the judges' comments - I hope our customers were as impressed!" Richard Courtney, the managing director at Bezier's Bristol site, said: "POP in the DIY sector is perhaps one of the biggest challenges to in-store advertising specialists due to the complexity of the products involved.

An in-depth understanding of customer needs and buying behaviour is required to create media which is concise and clear enough to be used in a busy store environment and also ensure shoppers get the product they want.".
