Breaking New Ground with Topdrill's Website Overhaul

Razor - Topdrill Case Study

Greg Kelk from Topdrill Geotech - a geotechnical drilling and cone penetration testing company based in Tauranga, engaged RAZOR to design and develop a new website.

The goal was to create a modern, professional, and informative online platform that would effectively showcase Topdrill’s services and expertise. The website aimed to serve as a valuable resource for geotechnical engineers, project managers, and government agencies, providing clear information about Topdrill’s capabilities and experience. The new site also needed to feature strategic calls to action to drive client engagement and enquiries.

Razor - Topdrill Case Study

The key challenge with Topdrill’s website was balancing technical depth with accessibility.

Given the nature of their audience - engineers, construction and infrastructure professionals, and government agencies - the content had to be factual and authoritative while avoiding unnecessary jargon or complex terminology. 

The objective was to craft clear and concise content that communicates Topdrill’s core values with professionalism, accuracy, and reliability, along with their commitment to health, safety, and environmental standards. Additionally, the design had to reflect the brand’s professional aesthetic, using clean layouts and strong visual elements to inspire trust and confidence.

Another challenge was creating visual appeal through authentic imagery. We recommended the client arrange a photo shoot with our in-house photographer to capture action shots, equipment, and team interactions, ensuring the photography complemented and enhanced the website’s clean design.

The new Topdrill website successfully embodies the company’s expertise, reliability, and professionalism.

RAZOR’s team crafted concise and engage content that highlights Topdrill’s unique selling points, ensuring readability and effective communication with industry professionals.

Visually, the website presents a clean and organised layout with easy navigation and prominent calls to action, thanks to the incorporation of authentic, high-quality imagery. The images - ranging from service action shots to equipment displays, are strategically positioned within the design to complement key messaging and showcase Topdrill’s on-site capabilities.

The website’s professional colour palette, consisting of silver-grey, black, and white with accent colours for navigation, reinforces Topdrill’s brand identity while providing visual contract. The use of bold, sans-serif fonts further contributes to readability and aligns with the brand’s logo, creating a cohesive and polished visual experience.

Altogether, the new Topdrill website is not only visually appealing but also a powerful tool that communicates their expertise and reliability to their core audience.
