Hamburgย โย July 17, 2023ย โย Sustainability-themed advertising has become a prominent and enduring trend, according to a recent study by Nielsen. The report, which uses statistics from Nielsenโs Ad Intel, a comprehensive source of global advertising data, highlights the growing significance of sustainability in advertising, as companies across various sectors prioritise the ecological sustainability of their products and manufacturing processes.
In den letzten zehn Jahren war Werbung zum Thema Nachhaltigkeit hauptsรคchlich auf einzelne Sektoren wie Energie und Verkehr beschrรคnkt. Die Landschaft hat sich jedoch dramatisch verรคndert, mit einem weit verbreiteten Engagement fรผr die Einbeziehung von Nachhaltigkeit in die Werbekommunikation in allen Branchen.
Die Analyse des deutschen Werbemarktes, fรผr die Daten von Anfang 2022 bis Ende Mai 2023 ausgewertet wurden, ermittelte รผber 18.000 Kampagnenmotive zum Thema Nachhaltigkeit[1]. Die Studie konzentrierte sich auf Medienkampagnen, die einen verantwortungsvollen Umgang mit Ressourcen betonten. Ausgeschlossen wurden Kampagnen, die ausschlieรlich Aspekte der sozialen Nachhaltigkeit (z.B. Fairtrade), natรผrliche Inhaltsstoffe, vegane Ernรคhrung, Tierschutz oder wirtschaftliche Nachhaltigkeit betonten.
Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Werbebudgets in erster Linie Ressourcen fรผr traditionelle Kanรคle wie Fernsehen und Printmedien bereitstellen. Vor allem Marken und Produkte aus den Bereichen Reinigung (142,8 Mio. EUR), Dienstleistungen (111,6 Mio. EUR) und Kรถrperpflege (92,4 Mio. EUR) werben seit 2022 intensiv mit dem Thema Nachhaltigkeit. Zu den wichtigsten Attributen, die รถkologisch nachhaltiges Handeln von Unternehmen belegen, gehรถren Plastikreduzierung, Ressourcenschonung, nachhaltige Energienutzung, Klimaneutralitรคt und Investitionen in nachhaltige Projekte.
In der Studie wurden drei zentrale Themen in Werbekampagnen zum Thema Nachhaltigkeit ermittelt:
1. Advertisements promoting specific sustainable products: Companies are increasingly showcasing sustainable innovations and technologies. This encompasses the launch of environmentally friendly products, renewable energy solutions, and advanced recycling processes. Emphasising innovation underscores companies’ dedication to sustainable solutions.
2. Consumer benefits of sustainable actions: Storytelling is gaining traction in sustainable advertising, enabling brands to forge an emotional connection with consumers. Through narratives and personal experiences, brands convey the significance of sustainability and illustrate the advantages it offers to individuals. There is also a growing emphasis on local involvement, including supporting regional supply chains, utilising local resources, and fostering community engagement.
3. Emphasising the company’s commitment to sustainability: Advertising campaigns are placing greater emphasis on the circular economy and recycling. Companies are showcasing their efforts to reuse, repair, and recycle products, while encouraging consumers to support these practices.
Dirk Reinbothe, Managing Director of Nielsen Germany, said: “Ecologically sustainable practices are gaining such tremendous importance that not only established brands, but also niche industries, are integrating sustainability into their advertising strategies. Our Ad Intel study has really shown us that this is more than just a trend – it is a large priority for businesses as they seek to create an emotional connection with their consumers. There are no signs that this is going away any time soon.”
