A brand that has quietly accompanied generations through the most ordinary moments of daily life now pauses at its 150th year to ask a question that every enduring institution must eventually face: how does something familiar become meaningful again?

Always.' campaign, launched across Australia and New Zealand under new licensing steward Mitchdowd, is less a marketing exercise than a meditation on continuity — the attempt to hold heritage and relevance in the same hand without dropping either.
