CASE STUDY: BERTOLLI

Should they change the bottle or protect existing equity?

A global CPG brand spent months debating a packaging redesign. Traditional research gave conflicting signals. The Research product on the RIWI Platform gave a clear answer in one study.

01 / 04

1. Attention Mapping

Eye-tracking compared visual attention between the existing bottle and new design on a simulated shelf. The new bottle captured attention 23% faster. Finding: New design wins on attention.

02 / 04

2. Emotional Response

Facial coding measured responses to both designs in real shelf context. Both triggered similar levels of positive emotion. Finding: Emotional parity between designs.

03 / 04

3. Implicit Associations

Response-time testing revealed the existing bottle had significantly stronger associations with 'authentic Italian' and 'premium quality.' Finding: Existing bottle owns 'premium'.

04 / 04

4. Stated Preference

Traditional survey questions showed no statistically significant difference in purchase intent between designs. Finding: Surveys showed no difference.

THE DECISION

Keep existing packaging. Raise price instead.

Eye-tracking showed the new design won attention, but implicit testing revealed it would cost the brand its premium perception. Survey data alone would have produced a coin-flip decision. RIWI identified pricing elasticity as a stronger lever — avoiding a costly national packaging rollout.
