5 of Our Favourite Winter Branded Items

1. Promotional Lip Balm

Cracked sore lips are often a winter complaint. Why not provide your clients with a life saving (ok a bit dramatic there!) branded lip balm? They are such a popular promotional giveaway! Whenever we do an event, they are always the first items to be picked up and kept. You can rest assured that your brand and message will be seen multiple times a day with a promotional lip balm. They are a small, handy item, that will be kept on the person, within easy reach just when they need to source your service or product!

We can even supply torches that light up with your logo, branded Maglite LED torches and projector torches too! Get in touch with us for more information.

3. Promotional Mints

Having a pocket sized promotional tin of mints on hand during the winter months is always wise – who knows how long you may be held up with road closures and traffic jams due to poor weather! Promotional mints can come in any shaped tin or packet depending on your budget and styling. We rather like branding tins, as they are more likely to be kept and reused.

4. Promotional Beanie

Winter apparel is essential during the colder months. Gloves, scarves, and hats can all be printed or embroidered with your company logo. One of the most popular promotional apparel items during the winter months is the beanie. They have a high perceived value if you get the branding on point, and are an exceptionally practical gift, sure to make a big impact with the receiver. Beanies are especially useful for the construction industry, or those who are mainly outdoors. Choose from a range of knitted styles, add a bobble, turn up or roll down and you can even opt for recycled rPET beanies.

5. Promotional Ice Scraper

Who could forget the humble branded ice scraper?! Such a simple yet useful promotional business gift. You could even incorporate an ice scraper into a emergency car gift pack, with branded hand warmers and first aid kits.

If being eco-friendly is top of the agenda, you are on to a winner with the featured ice scraper above, which is made from rHIPs.b, a proprietary recycled plastic. It not only is a handy pocket size, it has a detachable trolley coin too. We also have antimicrobial ice scrapers which help to stop the spread of germs.
