Döhler MULTI-SENSORY DESIGN® for colours
Döhler MULTI-SENSORY DESIGN®; for colours – tailor-made colour solutions for successful products
What does yellow taste like? Who particularly likes red? And why does green taste completely different in Asia?
We automatically associate the colour of a food or beverage with certain taste and product properties, but they can also stir our senses and emotions. Selecting the right colour allows the product positioning of food and beverages to be consciously controlled. In a successful product, the product promise, consumer associations and the product experience itself always fit together!
On the other hand... product colours without any specific consumer associations allow for the development of completely new and innovative products with a unique positioning.
The product associations triggered by a certain colour vary between different countries and target groups and also depend on the type of food or beverage. Döhler Sensory & Consumer Science has investigated the reasons behind consumers' colour associations in a unique study. This consumer study was then used as the basis for Döhler's MULTI-SENSORY DESIGN® for colours.
What is the best colour for your energy drink? Or your children's drink....?
The Döhler MULTI-SENSORY DESIGN® for colours enables us to design the ideal colour solution for our customers of the food & beverage industry that perfectly matches their product and the product positioning they want to achieve – even for completely new product innovations.
- Are you looking for a natural colour that supports a certain product positioning and triggers the right associations for the taste?
- Do you have an idea for a completely new and innovative product and are looking for a colour that shows this off?
- Would you like to introduce an existing product to another market and guarantee market success?
Get in touch! Thanks to our diverse ingredient portfolio, we deliver not only the perfect colour, but also all the other well-balanced ingredients you need to create a multi-sensory product experience.
Finding the “perfect” colour for your product requires a great deal of understanding of what consumers want!
What does the consumer expect from a product? How can the colour support their expectations when it comes to taste and the product promise? Döhler Sensory & Consumer Science has developed the Döhler MULTI-SENSORY DESIGN® for colours in order to address these essential issues. In an extensive, exemplary consumer study in China and Germany, consumers were asked about the colour associations they make with soft drinks. The results obtained from the study help our customers to find the perfect natural colour that matches the desired product positioning, the product promise and ultimately the consumers' expectations.
The methodology developed can be applied to all segments of the food and beverage industry and tailored to meet the specific issues and requirements of our customers and their applications.
We will be happy to advise you further on how the Döhler MULTI-SENSORY DESIGN® for colours can help you make the right choice when it comes to selecting your product colour!
