The Campaign

Safety Bags are fruit and veggie bags that remove harmful pesticide residues. They look and feel just like normal fruit and veggie bags. However, every Safety Bag is formulated with a safe, inner-coating of Nano Photocatalyst technology. Safety Bags absorb natural light to trigger the bag's inner coating. This works to break down the toxic residues found in fruit and veggies—decomposing the toxic elements and dispersing them naturally into the air. Thus, enabling supermarket consumers to enjoy safer fruits and vegetables.

Creative Execution

Safety Bags were promoted at flagship Tesco supermarkets in China—where we replaced standard fruit and veggie bags with Safety Bags. To launch the initiative, a print campaign was supported by in-store posters, point-of-sale labellings and even a spot on the sales receipts. Safety bags are reusable and the way they work is simple: 1. You simply grab a Safety Bag 2. Place fruit or veggies into the bag 3. Expose to natural (indoor or outdoor) light for 3 hours 4. Remove, rinse and enjoy

Explain why the method of promotion was most relevant to the product or service

Safety Bags is a Promo & Activation idea with a simple objective: to allow shoppers to enjoy safer fruits and veggies. This promo campaign increased awareness about food safety and fuelled both conversation and demand for Safety Bags—safely removing pesticide residues to leave fruit and veggies just as nature intended. It also positioned Tesco as a brand striving to enhance the quality of life for its shoppers.

We turned to science and found photocatalysis—the breaking down of compounds using the power of light. Photocatalysis (with TiO2) is proven to destroy viruses, bacteria and toxic chemicals, including even pesticides. So working with Hong Kong’s leading photocatalyst laboratory*, we formulated a safe, inner-coating of Nano Photocatalyst technology into our fruit and veggie bags. This had never been done before. * Medical Grade Photocatalyst Laboratory
