Pests pose a serious health and safety risk in many parts of the world, and effective solutions have been hard to come by. Fencemat offers a more humane solution that doesn’t kill or trap the animal, just deters it. This aligns with KOODESIGN’s ongoing mission to use design to make a difference in people’s daily lives, while minimizing the impact on nature as much as possible.
KOODESIGN worked with Fencemat on a product redesign of their pest control mechanism that prevents rodents from entering doorways and other openings.
With our redesign we reconsidered the arrangement of the conductive wire in ways that not only made it more aesthetically appealing, but also more efficient in preventing pests from passing over the pattern.
Our design saw the integration of the logo into the fence graphic, making the icon integrate with the device’s functionality. Using the copper color also has a more refined style that matches better with interior décor, making it less industrial and more homeoriented.
