Key Information

At Steel City, we champion eco-friendlier branded merchandise for marketing and HR teams who need items that actually get used, stand up to daily life, and come with credentials you can trust.

When you’re sending onboarding packs, event stock, or direct mail, the last thing you want is vague “eco” wording, branding that rubs off, or delivery dates that slip. Our choices focus on quality, longevity, and stopping those issues early.

Credentials you can trust: We prioritise products with named standards and written recycled-content claims (GRS/RCS/Cradle to Cradle Certified™) so you have full traceability and aren’t relying on vague “eco” statements. It’s really important that we don’t greenwash.
Items people actually use: We’ll always steer you towards drinkware, notebooks, tote bags and compact tech because they get carried, refilled, and used time and time again, rather than ending up in the bin after one event.
Shorter supply chains: We include UK and European-made options because they cut out long freight legs. This reduces the carbon footprint and helps avoid those stressful shipping delays when you have a deadline.
Lead times you can rely on: We recommend lines with proven faster production (often 3-10 working days from proof approval) so you can hit your event dates comfortably or get onboarding packs out to new starters in their first week.
Branding that lasts: We favour engraving on metal and generous print areas on core items. You want your logo to look really good and stand the test of time, without looking scuffed or tired after a few weeks of daily use.
Materials with a story: We pick items with clear material call-outs (rPET, recycled aluminium/stainless steel, Prevented Ocean Plastic™, recycled paper) so you can tell the product’s backstory easily without needing a complex report.
Perfect for packs: We include postable sizes (A5/A6 notebooks, small tech, seed items) alongside daily staples so you can build welcome packs that fit through letterboxes and still feel like a real boost to the recipient.
Stock first, bespoke options: We use these specs as our baseline to ensure quality and speed. If your volume and timing allow, we can then take a consultative approach to source bespoke options that match your exact pack size, print placement, and budget.

Traceable tote claims: We chose the AWARE Recycled 5oz Natural Cotton Shopper – 1 Colour because AWARE™ traceability gives you full confidence in the material’s origin, instead of relying on “eco tote” wording that can’t be backed up.
Pens that last: We picked the Electra Soft Feel Recycled Ballpen – 1 Colour with a GRS certified recycled aluminium barrel because it holds up better in pockets and bags. If you wouldn’t use a flimsy product yourself, there’s no point putting your logo on it.
A cover that stays tidy: We chose the Porto Eco A5 Wiro Notebook with an rPET cover because notebooks are a comfort blanket; they get taken into every meeting. This cover resists that tatty look you often get with thin card.
Drinkware people actually use: We chose the Circular & Co Recycled Stainless Steel Bottle – 500ml – 1 Colour because 90% recycled stainless steel plus 12h hot/24h cold performance means it gets used time and time again, rather than sitting in a cupboard.
UK-made reliability: We picked the H2O Active Eco Vibe Sports Bottle 850ml – 1 Colour because UK manufacture and Prevented Ocean Plastic™ cuts down long shipping miles and gives you a sports bottle people will keep using without quality concerns.
Mail-safe QR space: We chose the Seed Bomb Tin with a reusable aluminium tin and a full-colour label area because it protects the contents in the post and offers a great space for a QR code or call to action when it arrives.

At Steel City Marketing, sustainability is part of how we do business, and we’re committed to sourcing ethically, reducing waste, and offering promotional products that make a positive impact on the planet as well as on your brand, with the official proof and certifications you need for sign-off.

Here’s what that means for you:

Ethical sourcing – We partner only with trusted suppliers who share our commitment to responsible, sustainable practices.
Eco materials – From recycled plastics to FSC® certified paper and organic textiles, our merchandise is carefully selected for its low environmental impact.
Reducing single-use – Many of our products are designed to replace disposable alternatives, helping you and your customers cut down on unnecessary waste.
Transparent choices – We make it clear which items are recyclable, biodegradable, Fairtrade, or UK-made, so you can make informed decisions that align with your CSR goals.

With over 40 years in the promotional products industry and decades of experience in eco-friendly innovation, we’re here to help your brand go green the responsible way.

Together, we can create merchandise campaigns that look good, perform brilliantly, and protect the future of our planet.

Pricing overview:

Our eco-friendly merchandise is no longer automatically a premium option. While certain materials – such as GRS-certified metals or FSC® paper – can carry a slightly higher unit cost than standard equivalents, the gap has narrowed as demand and UK/EU production have increased. Our pricing is typically influenced by material type, certification requirements, print method, origin of manufacture, and order volume.

Value over unit price:

We focus on cost-per-use, not just cost-per-unit. A recycled stainless steel bottle or durable tote that’s used daily delivers significantly more brand impressions than a lower-cost novelty item. That repeat visibility, combined with traceable sustainability credentials, strengthens brand perception and supports procurement justification.

Minimum quantities:

Our MOQs vary by product and production method. Our UK-made and stocked lines often start lower, while fully bespoke or specialist-certified items require higher volumes to ensure efficient production. We’ll always advise on the most commercially sensible break point.

How to order:

Share your brief: quantities, budget, deadline, branding.
We curate options with visuals and clear pricing.
Artwork is prepared and proofed for approval.
Production is monitored through to delivery.

We have samples, formal quotes and bespoke consultations available on request, with clear payment terms confirmed at order stage.

Second time ordering from Steel City. The team has been marvellous once again. Very attentive to my requests, and in this occasion - very short deadline. They were quick to respond, and delivered on time in spite of the challenge of time. Always respond quickly and very proactive. I highly recommend this company for any marketing needs. Their brouchure is full of ideas and nothing is out of reach. Thank you once again team!

“Really happy with service from start to finish! Quick turnaround from ordering to receiving products.”

Steel City supplied magnets for us recently on behalf of one of our charity sector clients. Both David & Rowan from initial quote, through to overseeing the project itself were brilliant. Very pleased with the finished product, and quicker than initially expected. Thanks again, Marc

Amazing service through out and unbeatable lead times! Steel City really makes the impossible possible!

Communication and customer service was excellent. High quality product. Thank you Rowan.

James and Rowan were super helpful in helping us finalise our plans and delivered a product we are super happy with! :-)

A huge thank you to Rowan and Debbie at Steel City for all their help with our new merchandise for our rebranding launch! They were a dream to work with, super friendly and responsive! Communication was absolutely on point throughout the whole process, which made everything run so smoothly. The merch looks fantastic and really brought our new brand to life. I can’t recommend them enough!

Delighted with the service, the product and the prompt delivery - thank you 😀

Had a fantastic experience ordering products through Steel City. From very first contact through to delivery everyone was very helpful and professional, keeping me informed at every step of the way, and ensured a speedy outcome - an extremely efficient process from start to finish.

These guys are super. They are all very personable and incredibly easy to work with, and will stop at nothing to make sure the order is exactly right. We have made three orders from them now and have been really pleased each time.

A really quick turnaround and they were happy to do whatever changes were needed. Amazing service, thank you so much!

Great service from the whole team from ordering, through fulfilment to billing. Staff were all friendly and accommodating to our needs and made great suggestions to our order - thank you. Will use again!

I ordered name badges from Steel City, the communication from Rowan and the final product were first class, I will definitely use them again.

We have used Steel City a number of times and this order was no different - a fast, friendly and efficient service from start to finish! Highly recommended for any and all branded goods!

Excellent customer service throughout the whole process - from initial contact through to delivery. I was kept informed at each stage. Friendly and helpful staff. Thanks.

Ordered loads of branded merch from them (we're talking in the 1000s) multiple times over the past few years and they never fail to be absolutely spectacular with their customer service, general friendliness and their helpfulness! The merch is top notch quality, and will happily continue using Steel City for many orders to come! Hugely recommend!

We have ordered several branded products from Steel City, and we have been extremely impressed by both the quality of the products themselves and also the service we've received from their fantastic team. Georgia in particular has been brilliant - her friendly demeanour and genuine willingness to help us make the right decisions for our business made the entire process seamless. No question was too trivial, and no request was ever too much trouble for her. Steel City has earned our trust as a reliable and customer-focused company, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality branded products with exceptional service to match. Thanks guys!

I have known Steel City Marketing for many, many years and always find them extremely professional. The whole process: from responding to my initial inquiry; through to tracking delivery is managed in a super professional way. On top of that - they are lovely, friendly people ... highly recommended :-)

Seamless from start to finish. Very helpful company, brilliant product and delivery on time. Couldn't recommend more.

We are delighted with our branded hoodies. The team are a pleasure to work with and provided an excellent service on a tight deadline. Thoroughly recommend Steel City Marketing.

Good quality products, competitively priced with excellent communications throughout the whole process.

Fabulous fast and friendly service, cracking banner :)

Very helpful and friendly customer service, and great job on pin badges produced for our Freshers campaign

Absolutely A-1 in every area. From design, to communication, to delivery, processing, speed, quality of products - exceptional!

My first time using Steel City BM, what a great service, we delayed things and messed them about a bit but they still came up trumps, got the merchandise we wanted, printed with our Logos and delivered within the very short timeframe we gave them, excellent service. I would highly recommend using them

I am a repeat customer for a good reason and have been for years. Never let me down, courteous, friendly service, quality goods, lovely efficient firm to deal with (exemplary COMMUNICATION as well, which seems to be a commodity fast diminishing between client and supplier these days) and going forward I’ll be back again - at least twice a year with ever increasing volumes. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Great firm.

Recently sourced products from Steel City and couldn't be happier! From the initial enquiry to the delivery of the products, every step of the process was handled with the utmost professionalism and care. The quality is exceptional, the customer service is outstanding, and the delivery was prompt. I highly recommend them to any business looking for reliable, high-quality suppliers. Thank you for exceeding our expectations!

Ordered a bulk order of 500 branded notepads on the Monday and they had been delivered on the Friday! Impressively fast. Great quality products, and the customer service is the best i've experienced- both Rowan the Sales Administrator and Debbie the Account Manager were excellent, very rapid email response with all the info needed. We will continue to use Steel City for our company's branded merch.

Can't rate the team at Steel City Marketing highly enough. I've ordered a few different promotional items just recently and every single time, from start to finish, the service from Georgia & Rowan in particular, has been first class. Each item we have had (leather key fobs, feather flags and printed bags) are of an excellent quality and have been produced to a very high standard. I've always been pleasantly surprised at the quality, speed and with the exceptional service this company has always fulfilled our orders.

Brilliant service from start to finish. Rowan went that 'extra mile' to keep me informed on progress.

Highly recommend Steel City for all promotional items and gifts. The team were very helpful and supportive in helping us source what we were looking for and sent multiple free samples for us to test the quality prior to us making a final decision. Highly recommend Steel City and look forward to working with them again in the future. - Review on behalf of AUMA Actuators Ltd.

“As always, the service was fast and reliable with my favourite bit being the communication. As a customer you know exactly what to expect at every point of the process because your expectations are managed beautifully and all information is communicated well.”

Excellent service and produced items once again from Debbie and the whole team at Steel City. I won't go anywhere else for my promo items.

Super speedy process and the team were on hand throughout! Highly recommend - thank you again!

Fantastic experience using Steel City from the minute I emailed James about my requirements to the finished product being delivered. Can't speak highly enough of Rowan for her regular communication and letting me know how things are progressing.

Great experience of using Steel City, nothing was too much trouble, everyone within the team that we dealt with were really helpful, will definitely be using them again!

Good Products, good service - kept informed all the way - Steel City met my expectations which are pretty high - nicely done SC...

The team at Steel City have been extremely helpful whilst ordering new merchandise for a small charity. They came up with suggestions for the products, enhanced the logo and offered an excellent price. Overall very friendly and efficient and we are delighted with the final products.
