Polycab is undergoing a remarkable transformation under Project LEAP. While being renowned for its excellence in manufacturing wires and cables, Polycab continues to expand its horizons to offer a comprehensive suite of electrical solutions for modern living making it safe, convenient and sustainable.

 The new Visual Identity reflects the colours of dawn, symbolizing Polycab's commitment to reaching new heights, mirroring the rising sun, and encapsulates the vision of uniting all towards a brighter future by ingeniously incorporating the letter 'O,' a prominent sound in the Polycab name, into its innovative visual emblem. The three colours red, blue and purple signifies leadership in wires and cables, the connection with customers, through the FMEG category and its future readiness respectively. This representation aims to make the brand more modern, contemporary, and relatable to the customers whilst retaining the organisation’s core values.

 In alignment with its brand vision of 'Bringing the power of innovations to help everyone connect to a brighter future,' Polycab has introduced a forward-looking brand line, signifying the evolution from the existing positioning of ‘Connection Zindagi Ka.' to ‘Ideas. Connected.’
