When Kraton Performance Polymers, a global company with over 1,800 employees across 70 countries, completed its acquisition of Arizona Chemical, the organization needed a single, clear identity that could bridge its legacy and future — a brand that felt whole. Relish helped bring cohesion and clarity to that vision.
Following its acquisition of Arizona Chemical, Kraton needed more than a new logo—it needed a unified identity that honored its heritage while charting a clear path forward. Relish partnered with leadership, employees, and customers to build a brand that reflects the combined organization’s purpose, organizes its product families, and communicates one cohesive story to the world.
After the acquisition, Kraton faced a siloed identity where legacy brands—Kraton and Arizona Chemical—lacked a unified front. Despite their strength, both internal teams and external audiences experienced confusion, and Kraton’s messaging failed to reflect the combined organization’s breadth and purpose.
Relish worked closely with leadership, employees, and customers to uncover the shared values, culture, and market expectations that would define a unified brand. From these insights, we created a contemporary corporate logo, a master brand architecture, and a brand story with messaging platforms that aligned communications across products and regions. Together, these elements established a clear, cohesive identity that honored Kraton’s heritage while positioning the company for global growth.
Kraton launched a single brand identity that blended the heritage of both companies into one strong narrative. With a uniform visual system and messaging framework, stakeholders now see Kraton as one trusted brand—reliable, sustainable, and consistent across every touchpoint worldwide.
