At Steel City, we know that when you’re looking for branded sweets, you want them to land well with the recipient. We carefully select options that not only taste great but hold up perfectly in post trays, rucksacks, reception desks, and event tote bags.
Every option below is chosen to ensure the quality reflects your brand – avoiding crushed packs, split seams, or unreadable branding – so you can order, approve artwork, and hand them out with total peace of mind.
- Mail-friendly pack shapes: We choose rigid and postal-safe formats – boxes, pots, tins, and tougher bags – because we want them to arrive in perfect condition, whether they’re stacked on a welcome desk or posted out. This keeps portions consistent (approx. 40g-110g) and ensures the packaging looks professional and robust, rather than turning up crushed or messy.
- Readable branding space: It’s really important that your logo stands out. We prioritise print areas that people actually see – sleeves, labels, lids, and full-print boxes – so your message isn’t squeezed into a corner. That’s why we favour clear panel sizes like 205 x 60mm sleeves, 125 x 36mm labels, 76 x 44mm lid domes, and 88mmØ tin labels.
- Date-led production slots: We quote clear production windows – 6, 10, or 15 working days from artwork approval – because we know you need to plan around a deadline. If you’re working to an event date, we’ll make sure the product works for your timeline, reducing the risk of having to compromise on print areas or packaging quality just to get them on time.
- Repeat-order consistency: Our BPMA-accredited sourcing (with over 40 years of membership) uses a brilliant UK/European supplier network because we want to ensure quality every time. This reduces the chance of packs turning up with different materials, finishes, or noticeable colour variation when you come back for your next order.
- Materials you can verify: Sustainability is a real priority for us. We put forward options like compostable/biodegradable PLA tubs, NatureFlex-style film, and 100% rPET pots with aluminium screw-top lids because we want to avoid greenwashing. This gives you something tangible your recipients can see, handle, and trust.
- Lids that stay shut: We favour rigid bodies, fitted lids, and screw-top closures because we know these items get thrown into laptop bags and carried around all day. This prevents sticky leaks and crushed contents, ensuring your brand makes the right impression the moment it’s opened.
