VELUX: 27 newsrooms, one brand voice

How VELUX built a global PR machine that moves fast, stays consistent, and brings everything under one roof.
velux | case study image

VELUX operates in 40+ countries — and needed a PR setup that could keep pace across them all. The team wanted more speed, more consistency, and fewer roadblocks.

Now, they run 27 self-managed newsrooms from one platform. Press releases go live instantly. No clunky processes. No waiting around.

We needed a strong digital window towards the world. Having a digital space that you can use as a hub where journalists can get images and content was crucial for us to orchestrate a strong media outreach.

BEFORE Presspage

Clunky tools, avoidable delays

  • Teams sent press releases to external vendors to publish.

  • CMS was slow and hard to use.

  • Global brand consistency was tough to maintain.

AFTER Presspage

One platform, full control 

  •  27 national newsrooms live and on-brand.
  • Teams publish instantly, without IT or external vendors.
  • Built-in analytics, no digging through Google Analytics.

One platform, 27 newsrooms

VELUX started with a single newsroom. Now they’ve scaled to 27, each managed by local teams — all aligned with corporate branding.

Presspage gave VELUX one unified platform to run local newsrooms in multiple countries. No more juggling different CMS tools or relying on third parties to make updates. Local teams now publish directly — staying fast and on-brand.

  • Easy for national teams to manage their own content.
  • Consistent brand identity across countries.
  • No more siloed PR setups.

 

“All newsrooms reflect our brand and are completely in line with our corporate identity, our corporate website, and our national sites.”

Kathrine Westermann,
Media Relations Manager, VELUX

Publishing without the wait

Before, publishing a press release meant sending it to an external vendor — and waiting. Now? Teams hit publish, and it’s live.

With Presspage, Velux teams worldwide can publish in seconds while always staying on brand.

  • No more vendor delays or email threads.
  • Local teams publish directly.
  • Press releases go live instantly.

 

“The old setup was based on an external agency managing our content and a CMS that wasn’t very intuitive. It was very time-consuming to publish press releases”

Kathrine Westermann
Media Relations Manager, VELUX

Smarter insights, less effort

VELUX wanted better visibility into what content works — without digging through analytics dashboards.

Before Presspage, measuring performance meant bouncing between tools. Now, all the key stats are right there in the platform. Local teams can see what’s performing — and adjust their content accordingly.

  • Built-in analytics across all newsrooms.
  • Real-time insights without separate logins.
  • Data-driven content planning made easy.

 

The results

Presspage gave VELUX the tools to move quicker, stay consistent, and take control of global PR:

  • 27 newsrooms launched across Europe & North America.
  • Fast, direct publishing with no external delays.
  • Consistent brand voice, locally managed.

We had set the expectation for where people could find information, and where we would be updating it. It was a much, much smoother process from our perspective. We have established ourselves, not only during emergencies, but just in general, as the source of [campus] information, and that we also provide accurate information as quickly as possible.
