Adding Freshness to MaxFresh

In 2023, we launched a mission to revitalize MaxFresh, one of our flagship toothpastes.

Our team collaborated with our international R&D experts to create a unique, differentiated product experience. A new, inhouse, proprietary technology was introduced that helped to deliver 10X longer lasting cooling* for intense freshness. The packaging was revamped as well to bring alive our unique cooling crystals and offer a differentiated look to the pack. We also introduced stand up caps to further premiumise the offering.

This was accompanied by a refreshing new communication that brings alive our brand promise of "Intense freshness that prevents morning goofups" with the tagline of "Neend Bhagao, Taazgi Jagao".

Through a combination of consumer insights, technological innovation, and strategic branding, MaxFresh saw a strong positive momentum in business growth and brand health metrics.**
