Key Information

At Steel City, we select measuring and utility tools with one key question in mind: would you use this yourself? To make the cut, they have to be accurate, durable, and ready to work as hard as the recipient does in their day-to-day.

Our choices focus on quality and longevity, ensuring that your branded merchandise doesn’t just land well, but stays in use for the long term – avoiding the issues that come with lower-quality alternatives.

True-read tape blades: We choose EC Class 2 calibrated tape measures with imperial and metric scales so the blade reads accurately. Whether you’re setting out or checking cuts, we want to ensure it’s a tool they can rely on, rather than a “close enough” tape that doesn’t do the job.
Branding that stays put: We prefer engraving on metal tools and high-quality domed or label branding on tape housings. These methods handle the day-to-day wear of pockets and gloves much better than basic prints, ensuring your brand exposure lasts as long as the tool does.
Proof-first sign-off: We always provide a proof before production – nothing goes to print without your approval. This ensures we catch any potential issues with logo placement or colour before we proceed, giving you peace of mind that the final product will look exactly right.
Dates you can plan around: We know lead times are important, so ours start from artwork approval. We also offer express options on selected lines, so if you are working towards a specific event or campaign date, we can usually make something work for you.
Carryable tool formats: Our range includes compact keyring measures, belt-clip tapes, and useful everyday kit like knives, torches, and levels. We know that tools only get used if they are easy to keep close to hand – whether that’s in a pocket, on keys, or in the glovebox.
Clear-origin UK options: We keep UK-made lines available for when traceability is key. If you need a clear origin story or want to reduce carbon miles, we can help you make a choice that aligns with your sustainability goals.

These products are the starting point we use as our benchmarks. If your lead time and volumes allow, our team can also take a consultative approach to source bespoke tools to match the exact format, spec, or branding method you need.

Class-2 belt clip carry: We use the Tuffpro 5m Tape Measure as a benchmark because the EC Class 2 calibration with imperial and metric scales keeps measurements consistent. It’s a robust tool that feels good quality, rather than a flimsy giveaway that might let you down.
Trade-pocket 3m size: We picked the Tuffpro 3m Tape Measure because the EC Class 2 spec and belt clip are ideal for quick checks and short runs. It’s handy enough to keep on you, ensuring it’s the one they reach for day-to-day.
10m workshop reach: We put the Tuffpro 10m Tape Measure forward when you’re measuring longer spans. The 10m calibrated blade and full-colour domed branding cope brilliantly with repeated use, so it stays in rotation and keeps your brand visible for longer.
Keyring 1m quick checks: We chose the Mini Ronin Tape Measure Key Ring – Full Colour because a 1m tape on your keys is genuinely useful for those immediate “how wide is it?” moments. Plus, the 3 Day Express option is a real help when you’re up against a deadline.
Rechargeable engraved torch: We recommend the Tuffpro Pro Torch because the rechargeable aluminium body, up to 300 lumens, and IPX4 water resistance offer real reliability. It avoids the frustrations of battery replacements and weak output, so your clients can rely on it for checks in dark corners or plant rooms.
Retractable utility control: We picked the Hoost Utility Knife – Full Colour because the retractable utility format offers safer blade control. It’s a practical item with a large 50 × 18mm branding area, keeping your logo front and centre on a tool that’s going to be used time and time again.

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!

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!

On top of that - they are lovely, friendly people ... highly recommended :-)

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...
