THE BRIEF
Create and launch a brand from scratch in a future-facing product category.
We chosed insect-based food — a sustainable solution often met with resistance. Our challenge? Make it not just acceptable, but desirable. Build trust. Create emotional buy-in. And most importantly, make consumers fall in love with the idea of drinking bugs (without calling it that).
THE CONCEPT
Grounded transforms insect protein into something cool, clean, and craveable.
Rather than lead with shock value, we lead with confidence. This isn’t science fiction. It’s nutrition, redefined. Cold-pressed juice infused with EcoProtein (our rebrand of insect powder), packed with taste, transparency, and planet-first benefits.
We positioned the brand as a staple in active households — the kind of juice that belongs in lunchboxes, gym bags, and everyday fridges. It’s made from the earth, for the everyday.

PRODUCT RANGE & SIZES
Grounded is available in three sizes to suit different lifestyles. The 350ml bottle is built for quick, on-the-go workouts. The 500ml size is your everyday baseline, ideal for throwing in a gym bag or grabbing on the way to work. And the 1.2L jug is made for sharing — whether it’s for families, fridge storage, or weekly refuels.

WHY IT WORKS
Grounded doesn’t shy away from what it is — it reframes it.
We made insect-based food accessible by focusing on flavour, family, and functionality. Rather than preach sustainability, we built it into the brand DNA — from our ingredients to our packaging. Consumers don’t need convincing. They just need something they can believe in. Grounded is that something.

Juice Van Activation
The van allows consumers to taste-test flavours, learn about the insect protein inside, and scan QR codes that show the real supply chain story — from bug to bottle.
This activation flips the fear around insect protein into fascination and builds trust through transparency.
