Visit to Sweden shows Sweden behind the toilet brushes

Visit to Sweden shows Sweden behind the toilet brushes

Pullmain is more than just an IKEA toilet brush. This is the message Forsman & Bodenfors sent for Visit Sweden. In many promotional videos, viewers are able to visit the places behind the names of many Ikea products.

Marketing Sweden globally is of course the dream mission, and through this campaign we have developed an idea clearly based on Visit Sweden’s strategic mission. With the help of well-known IKEA products, such as the toilet brush, gaming chair and storage shelf, we highlight Swedish places and places that may not always be visible in this type of communication, he says. Marcus Haglof, copywriter at Forsman & Bodenfors in a press release.

“We appreciate IKEA”

The campaign offers 21 places where you can visit everything from Viking ruins, small towns, castles, and silver mines. And this Ikea name for the toilet brush after Småland Lake in Pullman is unlike anything Magnus Gunnarsson, president of Smålands sjörike and municipal councilor in Ljungby municipality, is offended.

We appreciate IKEA naming a product after our beautiful lake and that’s exactly what Visit Sweden has noticed worldwide. But now, along with Visit Sweden, we want to show the world that Bolmen is actually more than just a product you use to flush the toilet. It’s an incredibly beautiful place that the locals love. And now we want to invite the whole world to stay in our beautiful untouched nature with the same care as we and enjoy the clear waters, he says

The campaign launched in the US, UK, Germany, France and the Netherlands at the end of November, as well as hero films which also consist of social media digital devices and local articles.
