Home security company SimpliSafe has unveiled a new look following a complete brand refresh to its website, logo, brand colours and brand positioning.

The rebrand has also included a new TV and radio campaign, all underpinned with the new strapline: There’s no safe like SimpliSafe.

The new branding reflects SimpliSafe’s unique offering and core values including advanced home security, comprehensive protection, excellence in professional alarm monitoring and value.

Yellow and dark blue shades were selected as the new brand colours as “they evoke feelings of trust and safety,” while standing out from the light blue and grey tones that other brands in the home security sector favour. The new logo might not seem dramatically different apart from the colours, but subtle changes were made to add curves and adjust the alignment, which is a nod to the shapes and quality designs of the products.

The new TV and radio campaign, Protect What Matters, has launched globally, but Manchester video production agency Koala was brought on board to adapt the ads for the UK audience.

British actor Richard Armitage, known for his roles in Spooks, Hannibal and North and South, was chosen for the UK voiceover, his tone adding “warmth and trust,” as well as it being recognisable.

The new TV creative will air across the Sky network, ITV and Channel 4, both linear and VOD, whilst the radio will air across Global, Bauer and Communicorp stations. Brokered by newly appointed media agency Wavemaker.

SimpliSafe’s director of marketing, Andrew Thompson said “This rebrand has been a very exciting project and it’s great to see how SimpliSafe has evolved in the UK since its launch over three years ago.

“It is important to us that people know what SimpliSafe represents in a very competitive market, and we wanted our new branding and creative to match our trusted reputation. Working with Richard Armitage for the voiceover was our first step in working with a public figure and he is a great fit for the brand. He’s well respected in the industry and brings confidence and assurance throughout the TV and radio ads. We think the complete brand refresh looks outstanding and hope new and existing customers agree.”
