Rebranding
Gruppo WISE joined ITAP in a large rebranding project. Specifically, we started with a revisited corporate image, working in particular on the logo – respecting the previous image – of which every single letter has been redesigned on new proportions and geometric shapes. Actions aimed at transferring a clearer and more immediate image, in the wake of the past and the recognition achieved in decades of business.
Corporate
After reinterpreting the historic company logo, the same coordinated image, which follows its style and immediacy, was used for the creation of all the paper supports used by ITAP, including the cover of the product catalogue, the heart of the commercial activity of the company.
Website
Gruppo WISE oversaw the creation of a new company website, with two main objectives. First of all, guaranteeing usability by international customers thanks to the interfaces in seven foreign languages; the second focus was on the communication of the variety of ITAP products, which is why the IT department of Gruppo WISE created an automatic synchronization of the product catalogue on the company website.

Video
To enhance ITAP’s Brand Awareness, Gruppo WISE created a corporate video based on in-depth interviews with strategic professionals within the company. Their testimonies allowed the transmission of corporate values and missions to the outside, with an informative slant capable of weaving around the company a true, profound and empathic story of aspects to complement those already known by the market.
Gruppo WISE created a documentary for ITAP that shows and describes each production and processing phase up to the finished product, revealing its excellence and characteristics to further enhance its authority. This transmits to the user the values of transparency, involvement and sharing, with an immediate increase in the perceived value of the Brand.

HOW IT’S MADE
Virtual Tour
Gruppo WISE has implemented the company’s visual communication through the integral creation of a virtual tour which, thanks to 360 ° panoramic photographs, allows the user to choose which company spaces to view, using any device. The virtual tour permits the user to follow a guided tour, allows the use of interactive information, to switch to different foreign languages and offers content intended for sharing on social networks.

The half-century of ITAP history was organized by Gruppo WISE with the conception and implementation of a campaign – both online and offline – consisting of a dense system of ad hoc tools that covered a dual function: in addition to strengthening its Brand connected to its own longevity, it was also a good opportunity to reaffirm the quality of products and processes, the result of a system of corporate values that has always been the foundation of ITAP.
The story
in a book
Gruppo WISE created a celebratory book, dedicated to the 50th anniversary of this important industrial group. Thus, the ITAP Brand has transmitted its development in a new, user-friendly and exciting way. Gruppo WISE oversaw the interviews with the protagonists, collected and reorganized the archival material held by the family that owns the company and oversaw the drafting of the text, written in two languages (Italian and English). The book is a gift, intended for all employees – of yesterday and today – and for all Italian and foreign stakeholders.
Family Day
Gruppo WISE oversaw the realization of the ITAP Family Day, a day dedicated to ITAP employees and their loved ones, which was full of stimulating initiatives and activities. A corporate event by definition, it allowed people to strengthen ties with the company as well as an empathic extended transmission of company values. The dinner dedicated to employees that ITAP will organize with the support of Gruppo WISE will be along the same lines.

A great
event
The ITAP anniversary was celebrated by all company employees through an important event organized entirely by Gruppo WISE. In fact, at Contadi Castaldi in Franciacorta, all ITAP employees were taken on on a visit to the cellar. The evening continued with a welcome aperitif, a dinner in a context of prestige and elegance, followed by a show with the comedian Fabrizio Fontana. A DJ set accompanied the evening until its conclusion, at the end of which all employees were presented with a bottle of wine produced by the cellar. An event that fully reflected ITAP’s requests: sharing, through an unforgettable evening, the important milestone represented by the company’s 50-year history.
