Client: Firth
Firth is the largest and only national manufacturer offering a complete range of concrete products, systems and solutions. From its start in 1925, Firth has grown through the development of its offering and now offers both commercial and residential solutions.

Firth’s success has come from its ability to value its people and its customers and to maintain high standards through innovation, excellence and by producing results.

Firth wanted to provide consumers and trade users with tailored information that is specific to their needs while maximising their exposure for all of their product groups.

How Image Centre helped Firth

Firth wanted to continue this success by providing consumers and trade partners with a tailored information source that was specific to their needs. Firth also wanted to maximise the exposure for their entire product range at the same time. The most innovative and cost effective way to do this was to improve their Internet presence.

Image Centre proposed to redevelop the corporate site as a portal to ensure that users were presented with all of Firths offerings and with a consistent message. The site needed to be structured so that two groups were catered for:

  • End users (DIY’ers, home owners, enthusiasts)
  • Professionals/Influencers (architects, designers, landscapers, engineers)

The portal approach maximised the exposure of the key areas within the site by driving traffic through one central point. Each area of the site was designed to provide tailored information to its specific audience.

Trade/ technical users are able to login and access documents and resources specific to their needs and products they use.

Consumers are able to

  • Browse products, and view their use in different locations
  • Access DIY guides and learn how to "Do it yourself"
  • Browse Residential project case studies
  • Browse information on Masonry Homes and view case studies.

Image Centre provided a full suite of services to Firth that helped develop an exceptional web presence and marketing tool. These services included:
