Henkel House Was Designed to Delight US Soccer Fans
References: henkel-northamerica
Henkel, the "proud Official Partner of U.S. Soccer," has created a modular marketing installation named 'Henkel House.' This physical structure is designed to emulate different rooms of a residence, each dedicated to showcasing specific products from its portfolio, including Dial soap, Persil detergent, Loctite adhesives, and göt2b hair styling products.
The Henkel House activation features interactive, soccer-themed engagements within each area — from an educational handwashing demonstration using ultraviolet light and a display comparing the cleaning efficacy of laundry detergent to a do-it-yourself station for customizing merchandise and a styling booth for creating sport-inspired hairstyles.
The brand also tapped Alexi Lalas, "capped 96 times by U.S. Soccer and a well-respected media personality," to heighten the excitement for the U.S. Soccer tournament and the Henkel House.
