Creative Execution
In order to limit our dependency on plastic, special tote bags were developed that were not
only eco-friendly but also equally as functional. Modeled after a notepad, the Tide Smart Bag
transforms into an instant grocery list that can be washed with Tide and used over and over
again, providing people with an eco-friendly accessory on future shopping trips.
The bags, along with a box of Tide and a marker, were sent to leading fashion/lifestyle writers
and bloggers to maximize word of mouth. Our aim was to position the Tide Smart Bag as an
environmentally sound and stylish companion for every grocery trip.
Insights, Strategy and the Idea
In the laundry-washing category, Tide is one of the leading drivers in innovative & eco-friendly
products. Targeting existing shoppers that use plastic bags, our objective was to demonstrate
Tide's outstanding cleaning results while creating a positive change in shopper behavior.
The United Arab Emirates currently consumes a shocking 20 billion plastic bags a year. So
devastating is this figure that the Minister of Environment & Water set strict measures for the
UAE to be plastic-bag free by 2013. And while we many not think a simple grocery trip is
harmful to our environment, our collective use of plastic bags is a huge cause of concern.
