Introduction
Ditrolic Energy is a Malaysian renewable energy company whose work spans solar, wind, and energy storage. As the company grew beyond its solar roots into wind and battery storage, its existing identity no longer reflected that wider range. The rebrand needed to bring these offerings together under one visual system.
Walk Production was appointed to lead the rebranding programme, covering brand strategy, corporate identity, custom website build, SEO, and brand activation to launch the new identity to market.
Our Solutions
Brand strategy and visual identity
The rebranding programme developed a new primary logo design built around a power-button form within a circle. The logomark is divided into segments that map to the company’s solar, wind, and energy storage offerings, and a navy-to-light-blue gradient reads as a charging element.
Mulish was selected as the primary typeface for its clean structure and legibility across digital and print platforms. Two secondary graphics, the Arc and the Power Bar, tie the wider communication materials together. A comprehensive brand book governs identity applications from corporate stationery to digital banners.
Website and search engine optimisation
A new corporate website was designed to showcase Ditrolic Energy’s expanded service portfolio. The site architecture organises content around solar, wind, and energy storage offerings, with clear pathways for different stakeholder groups. User experience supports both technical enquiries and general information needs.
A 12-month SEO programme targeted keywords relevant to the renewable energy sector in Malaysia. The campaign included website audit and performance improvement, on-page SEO with meta elements and image compression, and strategic link building to support search visibility. Keywords targeted included terms such as ‘battery energy storage system malaysia’ and ‘renewable energy company malaysia’.
Brand activation
Following the rebrand launch, Walk Production developed a brand activation campaign to introduce the new identity to market. The activation included rebranding announcement collateral, new website launch materials, press advertisements, campaign key visuals, and social media announcement assets.
The campaign tagline ‘New Look, Same Values, Greater Capability’ signalled continuity alongside the wider offering. The materials gave Ditrolic Energy a coordinated set of assets for stakeholder communications through the transition, helping carry across the trust built under the previous identity.
The Results
The rebranding gave Ditrolic Energy a unified visual system across its solar, wind, and storage work, reflecting its position as a diversified clean energy provider. The new identity gives the company a flexible framework to build on as it grows across Southeast Asia.
The SEO programme ran over the 12-month period, supporting brand visibility across renewable energy search terms. Search performance depends on factors outside any single project, so outcomes can vary and are not guaranteed. The brand activation supported a smooth market transition for all stakeholders.

Related Questions
When should a company consider rebranding?
Rebranding is typically warranted when a company’s visual identity no longer reflects its current positioning or capabilities. Common triggers include business diversification, mergers, market repositioning, or when an existing identity has become dated and no longer supports business objectives.
What is brand activation and why is it important?
A brand launch programme refers to coordinated activities that introduce a new or refreshed brand to market. This includes announcement materials, advertising, social media content, and stakeholder communications. Effective activation helps stakeholders understand the change and generates awareness for new positioning.
How does service-level branding differ from corporate branding?
Service-level branding creates distinct identities for specific offerings within a corporate brand framework. For diversified companies, this helps communicate different capabilities to different audiences whilst maintaining connection to the parent brand and providing clarity across market segments.
What SEO considerations apply to a website rebrand?
A website rebrand requires careful SEO planning to help preserve existing search equity. Key considerations include proper URL redirects, maintaining keyword-relevant content, updating meta elements for new brand messaging, and supporting technical performance. Search outcomes still depend on factors outside any single project and cannot be guaranteed.
How long does a corporate rebranding project typically take?
Corporate rebranding timelines vary based on scope and complexity. A comprehensive rebrand covering strategy, identity development, guidelines, website, and activation typically requires four to eight months. Planning for stakeholder communication and phased rollout is essential for smooth transition.
