The Schweppes brief was about provenance — 240-odd years of beverage heritage, distilled into one daily object. We chose a stone-feel coaster, blind-debossed with the brand's house script, finished to feel as considered as the bottles it sat under. The kind of piece a venue keeps long after the campaign closes.

Our approach drew on three decades of branded merchandise production. With the brand creative supplied by Schweppes (or their agency), we specified the substrate to match the brand's tactile signature — heritage · daily ritual · trade-grade — then matched the decoration technique to the substrate (not the other way around, which is where most promotional merchandise hospitality programmes go wrong). Print colours were proofed to the brand's reference palette. Packaging was specified in parallel with the product itself, because in the hospitality & beverage category the unboxing IS the brand encounter. Every component was sourced through Sense2's audited supply chain so the programme could ship into any hospitality & beverage environment without procurement friction.

The finished Schweppes programme reads exactly as Schweppes reads in market — considered, brand-led, on-tone. A weighted coaster, debossed in the maison's own type — restaurant-grade, archive-feel. This is what custom branded merchandise looks like when it's specified as marketing collateral: promotional merchandise hospitality that earns a second life with the recipient, that travels with them, that surfaces in the spaces Schweppes wants to occupy. If you're shaping a hospitality & beverage brand programme and want this same standard of work — sourcing, specification, decoration, production oversight, delivery in writing — Sense2 is the studio Australia's most considered brands have trusted with their merch programmes for over thirty years.
