Butterfly, one of India’s most trusted kitchen appliance brands, is turning a new page. With a refreshed brand identity, a renewed purpose, and a sharper understanding of today’s ever-evolving consumer.

Butterfly New Logo

At the heart of this refresh is a symbol as timeless as it is transformative-the fingerprint. Merging beautifully into the wings of a butterfly, the evolved icon reflects the brand’s core belief: that while life changes, one’s essence remains. It is this personal imprint-one’s way of thinking, cooking, creating, and living-that Butterfly now celebrates.

This new era of Butterfly speaks directly to consumers with a ‘zillenial‘ attitude to life-self-aware individuals who embrace transformation while staying rooted in who they are. For them, change is constant-but authenticity is non-negotiable. The brand aims to focus not on age, but on attitude by moving beyond demographics to psychographics-because a zillenial mindset isn’t defined by numbers, borders or genders but by how one embraces change.

Butterfly’s refreshed positioning, ‘Celebrating Change’, reflects a deep understanding of modern Indian homes, where shifting roles, hybrid lifestyles, and tech-integrated living are the norm. As a subsidiary of Crompton, one of India’s leading names in home solutions, Butterfly is now equipped to bring intuitive and purposeful innovations that transform everyday experiences in the kitchen and beyond.

“For over 40 years, Butterfly has been a part of millions of kitchens across India. Today, as homes become more fluid and identities more self-defined, our new identity reflects not just who we are-but who we’re here for,” said Swetha Sagar, Chief Business Officer, Butterfly.

The new Butterfly logo is more than just a symbol-it’s the mark of millions of consumers, retailers, dealers, employees and designers who are making the Butterfly products. Crafted from the distinct swirls of a fingerprint, the wings of the butterfly now carry the story of every individual it touches. It’s a tribute to the idea that no matter how much life shifts, one’s identity leaves a mark-on choices, kitchen and the everyday rhythm.

“This is more than a rebrand. It’s a reimagining of what it means to belong in a modern Indian kitchen. Butterfly is for the originals. The ones who grow, shift, and adapt, but never lose the essence of who they are.” she said.

From mixer grinders to cooktops, Butterfly’s product range is undergoing a transformation across categories-designed to be more intuitive, durable, and design-forward, catering to the changing rhythms of contemporary households. The brand’s commitment remains the same: to improve everyday life by providing intelligent solutions that understand and evolve with the consumers.

About Butterfly Gandhimathi Appliances Ltd.

‘Butterfly’ is amongst the Top 3 Brands in India in kitchen and small domestic appliances. It is a reputed brand with high consumer recall in South, known for Aesthetics and Product Quality. It has diverse product portfolio, with variants adapted to meeting consumer needs.

The event, held between 5:30 AM and 6:30 AM, drew an overwhelming response from fitness enthusiasts, residents, and yoga practitioners across Greater Noida West, all gathering with a common purpose-to breathe, stretch, and celebrate wellness.

With over 250+ participants, the open-air session was led by a Ministry of Ayush-certified yoga instructor, who guided the crowd through a sequence of traditional asanas, breathing techniques, and meditation practices. The theme “Let Energy Lift You. Let Calmness Ground You” resonated through every movement as participants found a quiet balance amidst the collective energy.

• First of its kind program catalyzes a global movement of pet-friendly and climate-resilient cities fit for future generations

• A new partnership with C40 Cities empowers mayors to increase access to pet-friendly and climate-resilient green spaces with an initial focus on Bengaluru, London, Los Angeles, Sao Paulo, and Bangkok

Mars, Incorporated, a global leader in pet care products and services, is expanding its BETTER CITIES FOR PETS™ program in India -helping more cities become pet-friendly and making it easier for people to enjoy life with their pets.

Better Cities for Pets is expanding to India; Launched Urban Nature Playbook for People, Pets, and the Planet featuring Bengaluru’s iconic Cubbon Park

The expanded program invests more than $1 million globally focused on increasing access to more green spaces and pet-friendly places, aiming to benefit 10 million people and pets around the world by 2030. This global initiative is powered by a strategic partnership with C40 Cities, one of the world’s largest networks of nearly 100 mayors of the world’s leading cities working to deliver the urgent action needed to confront the climate crisis and create a future where everyone, everywhere, can thrive.

Since 2017, BETTER CITIES FOR PETS™ has supported cities, focusing on key features pet parents need and want in their community. Through its expanded global focus, Mars is putting pet parents at the heart of urban life, fostering vibrant, pet-friendly cities that are not only kinder to the planet but also uplift thriving pet-friendly businesses in communities around the world including India.

The benefits of owning a pet are undeniable. In India 79% of pet parents say their pet has had a positive impact on their mental well-being and more than half 69% in India say their pet has improved their social life-sparking conversations, connections, and even new friendships. Pets play a powerful role in strengthening community bonds and enhancing city life.

Ikdeep Singh, Global President of Mars Pet Nutrition, comments, “With the urban pet population set to rise by almost 10% by 2030, Mars is more committed than ever to improving city living for millions of pets and pet parents around the world. Giving pet parents a voice in how our cities are designed for the future won’t just benefit our pets – it will contribute to healthier communities and a better planet for all. Because a better city for pets is a better city for all.”

In India, the Better Cities for Pets™ program is being piloted in Bengaluru, a city known for its growing urban pet population and vibrant community of pet lovers. With support from Mars India, this initiative is bringing together city planners, citizen groups, and local NGOs to co-create greener, safer, and more inclusive spaces for pets and their families. The program is inviting public-private partnerships to collaboratively shape a blueprint for a more pet-friendly Bengaluru, developed in partnership with C40 Cities. This city-specific roadmap will serve as a model for how Indian metros can integrate pet-friendly and climate-resilient solutions into urban planning.

More pet-friendly, resilient green spaces
Together with C40 Cities, the BETTER CITIES FOR PETS™ program has the ambition to drive a global movement toward pet-friendly, climate-resilient cities designed for future generations.

“At Mars, we believe pets make life better-and that belief is shaping how we think about the future of our cities, our emotional wellbeing, and the spaces we share,” said Salil Murthy, Managing Director, Mars Petcare India. “As Indian cities grow denser, pets are becoming vital anchors of emotional resilience and urban living. The Better Cities for Pets program brings this to life, starting in Bengaluru, known for its pet-friendly parks and civic engagement. Were proud to launch India’s first pet-inclusive urban initiative here, with plans to expand nationwide.”

Mark Watts, Executive Director of C40 Cities, comments, “Green space in cities is vital to ensuring peoples well-being. Places to walk, relax in and enjoy are critical. Theyre also vitally important in the face of increasing climate disasters like flooding. This partnership with Mars will accelerate support to cities to build resilience and improve access to green space for people and their pets. Our Urban Nature Playbook for People, Pets and the Planet provides tangible actions for cities to design people and pet-friendly urban environments.”

At the heart of this partnership is the launch of a first-of-its-kind Urban Nature Playbook for People, Pets and the Planet where Cubbon Park has been featured. Designed to inspire and equip city leaders, the playbook offers practical guidance for greener urban spaces-from tree-lined sidewalks to parks and public squares-that support biodiversity, improve mental and physical health, and strengthen climate resilience. Mars and C40 Cities will work hand-in-hand with cities, starting in Bengaluru, London, Los Angeles, Sao Paulo, and Bangkok, to bring the playbook to life through local initiatives that enhance green spaces for pets, people, and the planet.

More pet-friendly places

11% of global urban pet parents feel owning a dog limits where they can go, highlighting the need for more pet-friendly places in cities. In India, 56% of pet parents view their neighborhoods as pet-friendly well above the global average as per the recent Mars Global Pet Parent Survey.
