Sixième Son has the rare ability to translate a brand strategy into music that truly sounds like the brand. By deeply understanding what Mapfre is today and where it wants to go, they created a sonic identity that reflects its ambition and transformation, acting as a strategic mirror of the entire brand platform.

AN EFFECTIVE SYSTEM

Challenge

In 2025, MAPFRE undertook a comprehensive 360° rebranding.
The brand redefined its narrative and positioning under the new tagline “Vamos donde vas”, shifting from a model of reactive protection (“we’re here when you need us”) to one of proactive empowerment (“we’re here so you can move forward”).

Within this transformation, MAPFRE partnered with Sixième Son to evolve its sonic identity. The ambition was to introduce a more contemporary and dynamic sound while preserving the brand’s legacy, including its iconic 7-note melody.

The result strengthens the emotional link to MAPFRE’s heritage while updating its audio expression to connect more effectively with today’s audiences.

Sonic concept

The new sonic identity embodies the new brand personality « The Ally»: inspiring, flexible, and determined

It is upbeat and dynamic, using synth arpeggiators and a strong build-up. It expresses the brand’s new mission to enable people to move forward and take on new challenges, rather than just acting as a safety net.

The sonic logo was adapted to the redesigned clover symbol, reflecting openness, fluidity, and flexibility. Its swoosh effect reinforces movement, momentum, and pro-activity.

Warm female voices and organic textures bring the brand’s purpose, “We take care of what matters to you,” to life, reinforcing its human, customer-centric approach.

The brand’s brighter, more vibrant sound palette aligns seamlessly with the refreshed visual identity and its bold red color.

Outcome

Tailormade adaptations have been created to form a strategic and coherent ecosystem that expresses the brand at every touchpoint.

Sixième Son created an event kit, a customer hold line as well as a custom-made music for the brand film.
