Key Information

So, when it comes to Steel City Logobugs, we’ve selected a range that really sticks around – literally. We want to ensure your giveaways end up on a desk, folder, or display board, rather than getting lost in a pocket or, worse, the bin. It’s about providing items that have that staying power to keep your brand visible day-to-day. Our choices focus on UK-made consistency, clear print areas, and lead times you can actually plan around.

UK-made consistency: We really value UK-made consistency. We’ve chosen options with fixed dimensions and clear print areas because it keeps the product size and your logo placement consistent between batches. It means when you come back to reorder, you’re not having to rework artwork to fit a “slightly different” version – it just works.
Clear lead times: Lead times are always a popular question. Our shortlist focuses on lines with clear schedules (commonly 10 working days from proof approval) and 5-day express options where possible. We know you have event dates to hit, so this reduces the chance of any last-minute panic or having to settle for unbranded items.
Usable print space: Usable print space is key, especially if you want to include a QR code as a call to action. We’ve prioritised items with generous full-colour print zones (like ribbon panels or shaped panels up to 85 × 85mm). This ensures your message is readable and your code is scannable, rather than being cramped and unusable.
Proof approval process: We have a strict proof approval process. Our team runs a proof-first sign-off so your artwork gets checked and approved by you before anything goes into production. It’s part of our service to back you every step of the way, ensuring no surprises with URLs or colours when the bulk stock arrives.
Colour matching options: We get asked a lot about colour matching. We’ve picked a range with broad body, feet, and pom colour options so we can get as close to your brand palette as possible. If a specific plastic colour isn’t available, we can offer a neutral body colour with your brand colours popping in the print – it’s a great solution that still looks fantastic.
Self-adhesive staying power: Finally, we favour self-adhesive feet and pads because they have real staying power. They stick to flat surfaces like desks, monitors, or dashboards and stay there. When you’re handing these out, that “stays put” quality keeps your branding visible to the user day in, day out, instead of disappearing into a bag.
Bespoke options: We use these products as a strong starting point because they offer known print areas and predictable timings. However, if you’ve got more time or higher volume, we can absolutely source bespoke variants. We’ll apply the same rigorous proofing process so you get exactly what you need without the guesswork.

Stick-down ribbon panel: We would always recommend The Original Logobug because we want the product to physically stay on a notebook or desk, not float around as a loose freebie; the self-adhesive feet do that job perfectly. The 95 × 17mm full-colour ribbon gives you enough width for your logo and a short call-to-action without squeezing it into unreadable type.
Moving-eye attention: Our choice of Mophead Logobug comes from a simple problem: flat giveaways can sometimes get ignored on a busy stand. The lenticular animated eyes create movement as people walk past, so you can use it as a “pick it up and look” piece without relying on extra display kit.
High-contrast glitter pom: We picked the Glitter Logobug because the glitter pom and colour options really help the bug stand out when it’s handled all day at school fairs and family events. That brighter, textured top stops the “same old freebie” problem where the item blends into a pile – we want it to be the one they reach for.
Two readable zones: We recommend the Cardholder Logobug With Hot Plug Safety Sticker because we don’t want you cramming safety wording and contact details into one tiny print area. The ribbon (95 × 17mm) plus cardholder panel (40 × 25mm) split the information so your instructions stay legible and useful at arm’s length.
Big cut-to-shape panel: Our choice of the Promotional Display Wobbler is about keeping your call-to-action bold where it’s stuck down, not lost behind other counter clutter. The shape-cut, one-side full-colour print up to 85 × 85mm gives you enough space for a QR code and headline without shrinking everything until it won’t scan.
Job-matching graphic: We recommend the Vocational Promo Pal because generic pictures can get ignored if they don’t feel relevant. The bespoke vocation graphic, paired with full-colour ribbon/card components, lets you hand out something that visually matches the job or industry on the day – so your message lands well without needing explaining twice.

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!

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.

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...
