During Paperworld 2008 Glue Dots International's European division shared their new brand roll-out plans with show attendees, which were met with positive response. The company's re-branding efforts include a new, contemporary logo and new consumer products packaging designs, which reflect the clean, sophisticated designs often seen in scrapbook and card layouts. The newer branding and cleaner designs have received an overwhelmingly positive response from show attendees who find the packaging and logo to be inspiring and memorable.

To alleviate consumer confusion at retail, the new packaging designs for the GLUE DOTS™ product line will adopt a colour pallet very similar to the existing packaging. "We found our consumers recall their GLUE DOTS™ purchases based on the colour of the packaging", says Glue Dots European Business Manager, Mike Silson. "To avoid confusion we remained as much as possible within the same colour families but with slightly softer, warmer tones." Glue Dots International - Europe estimates the new packaging availability will begin as early as Spring 2008.
