Brookvale Union launches Tinsurance to protect the nation from tinnie thieves, liquid spillers and more in new campaign via Bounce Creative
Launching one of the brand’s most exciting digital campaigns for the year with long running social agency partner, Bounce, Brookvale Union promises that good times and good tins across the country are now protected: Any moment with a tinnie in hand is in fact ‘tinsurable’.
Says Jacob Lumsdaine, creative lead at Bounce: “Having the most desirable drink at the kick-on makes you a prime target for a sneaky tinnie swipe from the communal esky. No one wants their good times railroaded by having to worry about their drinks, so an insurance policy to ‘cover’ anyone and everyone who buys a Brookvale Union tinnie was a no brainer.”
While establishing an actual insurance company is a first for the brand (and perhaps the category), Bounce have been running the social and digital accounts for Brookvale Union since early 2020 and have activated a variety of campaigns for the drinks company; registering a 1800 hotline, CCTV video stunts, giving away branded tattoos and sponsoring a fans’ marital union.
Like any insurance company, Tinsurance has rigid Ts and Cs, but are instead rewarding members with a ‘more claim bonus’ – a policy that sees Brookvale Union with 1 million millilitres of liquid to give away. The good news is, anyone who has picked up a tinnie is automatically Tinsured, all it takes is tagging the brand on social media to make a claim.
Says Maxwell Farrow, global vice president of refreshment at Brookvale Union: “Brookvale Union tins are some of the hottest commodities in fridges nation-wide. So, naturally, it made sense to insure them. Turns out that one million millilitres goes a long way, so we’ll be looking to activate Tinsurance beyond the realm of socials to festivals and events next year, giving our loyal liquid lovers even more chances to ‘make a claim’ and win.”
Fronted by Melbourne based comedian Frankie Mcnair, the campaign is live now across all social and digital channels. Head to www.Tinsurance.com.au to find out more and remember, just as with any insurance company, don’t forget to read the fine print.

Bonds Baby Cover and AAMI Fansurance did this last year.
… in a good way. I approve.
Too much going on. Plus, the execution feels hollow.
The idea is strong. The script is clever. But overall, the talent, direction and overall execution/craft really let this down.
… And fun. Had me from start to finish.
Interesting to watch.
There is absolutely no link to the brand at all but at least Bounce have an actual idea (an overdone one) this time.
…awful.
We needn’t any more of these types of ideas please.
So random! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Not sure which hole the rest of these commenters crawled out from, but this is seriously enjoyable stuff that’s relatable to the people who are actually being targeted.
Brookvale up to their usual shenanigans. Quality nonsense – pretty much summed up in this one! Can’t hate the absurdity… Casting and campaign on point!
Brookvale union used to make decent ads. These are lame
