When should rebranding be considered?
The recent change to the popular eWay logo got the Fish Tank Creative team thinking, when should a rebranding project be considered?
Stimulate growth
It’s simple, when your company grows your brand needs to grow with it. Customers are always looking for change so investing in a global rebrand will encourage a newer and wider audience and will also reflect the evolution of a company.
Gain competitive advantage
An effective rebrand will improve your impact and differentiate yourself amongst competitors.
Reconnect your target market
Don’t risk your brand being perceived as ‘out of date’. Show that you can adapt to change and keep up to date with design trends and avoid the worry of having a disconnected audience.
New direction
Company growth usually leads to a shift in focus and business direction. It is important that your brand reflects your new products/services to attract the right target audience.

Mako Turbines branding
Fish Tank Creative has been creating a brand for Elemental Energy Technologies (EET), a tidal energy technology company.
The shape of the blades on EET’s new turbine closely resemble the fins of a Mako shark – hence the MAKO branding.
The colour palette used in EET’s branding was based on the natural colours of a Mako shark, Navy Blue & Silver Grey. These colours had also been chosen by EET when building their prototype turbine with a Navy Blue finish on the fibreglass body of the MAKO and a light grey finish on the carbon fibre blades. Also, EET had chosen a Navy Blue and polished stainless steel finish on the deployment barge used in their recent successful testing in Sydney.
EET will continue to develop the MAKO turbine design to harness the energy in the world’s oceans and rivers to deliver cost-effective predictable renewable power. We are really pleased to be playing our part in this exciting project !
