ÖGK – UV Intensity Test
Claim: "Sun protection"
Overview
The goal was to provide an educational, portable, and reusable tool that could help individuals monitor UV intensity levels while outdoors. This tool would empower consumers to make informed decisions about their sun care needs, ensuring better protection against harmful solar radiation.
USP’s Contribution USP Demo Solutions developed a UV Intensity Test Card , designed for ease of use and portability. The card used advanced technology to visually indicate UV intensity levels, helping individuals understand the risks of prolonged sun exposure in real-time.
Impact The UV Intensity Test Card became a cornerstone of ÖGK’s sun safety campaign in Austria. By equipping consumers with a practical and educational tool, ÖGK successfully increased awareness about UV radiation and encouraged the adoption of sun care routines. The initiative not only promoted public health but also strengthened ÖGK’s reputation as a leader in consumer health education.
The Challenge
For the UV Intensity Test, ÖGK needed to make the "Sun protection" promise something shoppers in the sun care category could see for themselves, not just read on a label. In the few seconds a shopper spends at shelf or in a consultation, copy and ingredient lists rarely land, especially when rival products advertise uv protection claims.
The brief for the UV Intensity Test was to turn that abstract message into a tangible, repeatable proof point that retail staff, pharmacists or beauty advisors could run on demand, without lab equipment or specialist training, while staying on brand for ÖGK.
The Approach
USP Demo Solutions built the UV Intensity Test for ÖGK around the UV Intensity Test method, reducing the Sun protection story to a single visible reaction the consumer can trigger themselves. That gives the conversation a clear before/after moment in the sun care aisle instead of a one-way pitch.
From the same physical interaction with the UV Intensity Test, the demo substantiates claim areas such as uv protection, so a single asset can carry several conversations across the ÖGK range.
The Result
The result for ÖGK is a educate on uv intensity, delivered through the UV Intensity Test as something the consumer experiences first-hand rather than has to take on trust.
By turning ÖGK's "Sun protection" message into a hands-on UV Intensity Test moment, the UV Intensity Test becomes a credible, science-backed conversation starter the shopper can repeat for a friend.
In the field, ÖGK runs the UV Intensity Test primarily for retail activation, delivered in diagnostic tool, physical demo so the same UV Intensity Test proof point travels from a pharmacist's counter to a beauty advisor's tablet without losing its logic.
Because the UV Intensity Test is run by the consumer rather than presented to them, ÖGK earns a moment of genuine participation that lands harder than any printed sun care claim.
