Overview

A systems engineering company solving complex technical challenges across multiple sectors, but a brand and website that no longer reflected the scale of the business following a recent acquisition. They needed a digital presence that matched their technical credibility and positioned them clearly as a leader in their space, to support marketing and drive new business. So we first started with mood boards to lock the visual direction and link it back directly to what they stand for:

Trust the outcome.

Once the direction was aligned, we expanded those concepts into a full website system designed to scale:

- Exploring moodboards to lock the visual direction early
- Wireframing a clearer structure for sectors and subsystems
- Designing high-fidelity pages that signal technical authority
- Introducing motion graphics to bring the site to life
- Building a scalable Webflow platform for ongoing growth

Hardtech are now the engineering leader they aspired to be.

With a digital platform designed to support marketing and convert traffic into enquiries.

The easiest one so far.

I've done quite a few in my time and this has definitely been the easiest one so far and that is down to the team at hydro.

Hit the nail on the head first time round.

So then a couple weeks later the first draft came through and honestly I was blown away, I sent Marcus a voice note I think as soon as I saw it and was like this is amazing, this was far beyond anything that I could imagine a first draft to be.

Your project could look like this.

The answers you're looking for.

What if my project needs change halfway through?

Priorities change, especially in fast-paced industries. For fixed projects, we’ll update the scope of work if anything new is needed. If you're on the subscription, we'll update your board in the hydro portal and continue delivering as usual.

Can you work with our in-house team?

100%. We’re used to working alongside internal teams and third-party partners to keep everyone aligned and the work moving. We plug into your team wherever needed: that’s how we work with clients like Nexl, Taurex and many others.

Why not hire designers or developers full-time?

Hiring full-time takes time, budget and long-term commitment. With us, you get a team ready to start right away, with no hiring and no onboarding.

hydro vs other agencies

Working with multiple contractors usually means more calls, and more headaches. At hydro, you get one integrated team with a dedicated client success manager. We handle everything from strategy to execution, saving you time and keeping the project on track.

How many people will I work with?

Depends on what you need. The Unlimited Plan gives you 1-2 designers, a motion designer, a Webflow developer and a client success manager. One-off projects are staffed to the scope.

Do you work on projects or subscription only?

Both. The Unlimited Plan is a monthly subscription for ongoing design and Webflow work, $4,999 a month, month to month. A brand or website can also run as a one-off project, quoted separately and paid over three milestones: 50% deposit, 25% on sign-off, 25% before go-live.

Can you help with branding, website, motion and graphic design?

Definitely. Whether it’s a new brand, a Webflow site or a full UX/UI revamp, we’ve delivered it all, quickly. You can pick what you need, when you need it. We'll bring it to life with ease.

How do I get started with you?

Just an accepted quote, signed T&Cs, and a first payment. That’s it. We get you onboarded fast so we can get to work the same day.

What does communication and workflow look like?

We work through our portal and Slack, giving you quick updates and tight feedback loops. No long meetings. Just consistent progress. We can also plug into the apps and workflows you already run, so nothing changes for your team.

Can I pause or cancel my subscription?

Yes, any time. Pause before your next billing date and you won't be billed while it's paused. To cancel, email us and it ends when the month you've paid for runs out.
