C&A unveils new brand strategy

© 2022 C&A
As an essential part of C&A’s transformation strategy, the fashion retailer will tomorrow launch its new brand campaign. Following the key message “You Do You & We Do The Fashion”, C&A strengthens its position as a European consumer-centric fashion brand, catering to the consumers’ need for effortless, stylish and affordable clothing. While doing so, it highlights C&A’s perpetual commitment to values such as sustainability and inclusiveness.
  • With the new brand campaign “You Do You & We Do The Fashion”, C&A will tomorrow launch the next step of its modernization strategy.
  • The repositioning underpins the ambition to become a European consumer-centric fashion brand where consumers do not need to make compromises between a superior price value, modern and natural styles.
  • It also highlights C&A’s perpetual commitment to values such as quality, and affordability but also sustainability and inclusiveness.



The new brand strategy was created following an extensive market survey interviewing more than 14.000 consumers across six European countries and providing clear results: consumers prefer a brand that combines affordability, sustainability, quality and style. C&A now responds to these demands by offering collections of excellent value for money to make consumers feel good about themselves and suit their lifestyle. “Over recent years, we made crucial steps forward on our journey to becoming a modern fashion brand. In a fast-changing world, we want to be the trusted brand where consumers do not need to make compromises between a superior price value, modern and natural styles”, says Maik Kleinschmidt, Head of Marketing at C&A Europe.

Integral part of the brand campaign is a new imagery, built on emotional, stylish, natural, and authentic images that come to life in TV spots, Out-of-Home, communication in C&A stores and on digital channels across Europe. It will offer huge growth potential beyond established customers, addressing new consumer groups that are on a limited budget, but want modern and timeless fashion regardless.

Reducing development times for technical textiles by accelerated thermo-oxidative aging in a high-pressure autoclave

Synthetic polymers used in technical textiles can be effectively protected against degradation caused by heat, oxygen, and water through the use of stabilizer systems. This enables service lives of several decades, extending to more than 50 years. As the use of durable technical textiles continues to grow, so does the demand for reliable methods to predict their service life within economically feasible testing periods. For the first time the German Institutes of Textile and Fiber Research Denkendorf (DITF) developed methods for robust service life prediction for textiles in an IGF research project.
