Polygon Company launched its new branding campaign this year. "Engineered Composites for the World" is the statement defined what Polygon, as a company, offers to its customers. Polygon is a unique company and our message needed to define the company on our customer's terms. The new web site is a showcase for our branding efforts.
The current advertising image(s) and message was also revised this year. In an effort to bring the company's market segments together and highlighting our priority on our customers. The "Tell Us Where You Want To Go" message was decided upon to reinforce how, as a company, Polygon is striving on open the lines of communication with our current and to potential customers. We are directly asking them - "Where do you want to go?" The engineered composite products that Polygon Company produces will help you get there. We also incorporated a common visual aid to help communicate this message - the taxi. "We felt that the taxi is a worldwide image that everyone could identify with and understand" stated Angie Yates. "This is the culmination of a lot of hard work within the company and we are very proud of not only the new web site but of the company and the products we produce."
