01 — Starting point

Deep expertise, hard to grasp.

EGM is a state-authorised and sworn civil engineering institute with more than 20 years of industry practice – court-certified experts in chemistry, corrosion and surface technology.

Eleven specialist services, six focus areas and very different audiences – from industrial companies to courts, lawyers and insurers – had to come together on one website, without anyone needing a chemistry degree.

02 — Implementation

Six elements, one reaction.

Inspired by the periodic table, every part of the project became its own element – just like the competences on the finished website.

Co01

Concept

Information architecture for eleven services, six focus areas, expert reports and the team – with clear paths instead of a maze of jargon.

Qu02

Questions as the way in

“How can we help you?” – eight concrete questions meet visitors at their problem and lead straight to the right service.

Design in logo colours

Blue, cyan and violet from the EGM logo, element tiles as a recurring motif and a holographic hero that makes surfaces and reactions visible.

Ex04

Expert reports in focus

A dedicated area for courts, lawyers, insurers and private reports – with a direct call to action for report requests.

Ml05

Bilingual

German and English with a dedicated language switch – for international industrial clients and specialist conferences.
