Choose How You Want Your Brand to Show Up

Branded Workwear

Printed and embroidered clothing for teams, staff, events and day-to-day work, from polos, hoodies and jackets to hi-vis and other practical branded garments.

Branded Merchandise

Promotional products, giveaways and corporate merchandise including pens, notebooks, drinkware, bags and other useful items branded with your logo or campaign message.

Good merchandise starts with the reason you are buying it. Something being handed out to hundreds of people at an exhibition has a very different job from a client gift, a staff welcome pack or clothing your team will wear every week. Thinking about the audience and the moment first makes it much easier to choose products that feel useful, appropriate and worth putting your name on.

Useful items can keep a brand around long after a meeting, event or campaign has finished. The more naturally the product fits into someone’s day, the more chance it has of staying in circulation.

Pens & Notebooks:
Straightforward, practical merchandise for offices, meetings, conferences, training days and customer packs.

Drinkware:
Branded mugs, bottles and reusable drinkware that can be used at work, at home or on the move.

Bags & Accessories:
Useful branded products that travel with the person carrying them and give your identity visibility beyond the original event or handover.

Desk & Office Merchandise:
Everyday workplace items that put your name into regular use without needing to feel like an obvious advertisement.

Events, launches and campaigns create a natural reason to give something away. The right merchandise can extend the experience beyond the day itself and give people something tangible to take with them.

Event & Exhibition Giveaways:
Promotional items selected around footfall, audience, budget and the practicalities of handing them out at conferences, exhibitions and trade shows.

Campaign & Launch Merchandise:
Branded products built around a promotion, new product, opening, celebration or other campaign where the merchandise becomes part of the idea.

Corporate Gifts:
More considered branded items for clients, partners and key relationships where quality and presentation matter as much as visibility.

Eco-Friendly Merchandise:
Reusable and more environmentally considered product options for businesses that want their merchandise choices to better reflect their wider values.

Merchandise is not only for customers. Clothing and staff items can help teams look consistent, mark an occasion or simply give people useful products that feel connected to the business they work for.

Branded Workwwear:
Printed or embroidered clothing that gives teams a consistent, professional appearance across everyday work, customer visits and events.

Staff & Welcome Packs:
A mix of useful branded items that can be brought together for new starters, internal events, training or team initiatives.

Event Clothing:
Branded garments for exhibitions, charity events, conferences, launches and other occasions where the team needs to be easy to identify.

FAQs

Questions About Branded Merchandise, Promotional Products and Workwear

Promotional merchandise is a physical product branded with a business name, logo or campaign message and used to promote, reward or represent that organisation. It can include everyday items such as pens, notebooks, mugs and bags, as well as clothing, event giveaways, corporate gifts and more considered branded products.

Print Co can help with a broad range of promotional merchandise including office and desk items, pens, notebooks, drinkware, bags, giveaways, event merchandise, branded clothing and workwear. There are also eco-friendly options and products suited to corporate gifting, staff use and specific campaigns.

Start with who it is for and what you want the item to do. An exhibition giveaway may need to be easy to carry and work at volume, while a client gift or staff pack may justify something more substantial. Budget, quantity, timescale and how often the product is likely to be used should all influence the choice.

Yes. Promotional products can be selected specifically for conferences, exhibitions, launches and other events. The best options will depend on the audience, expected numbers, how the items will be distributed and whether you want a simple giveaway or something people are more likely to keep after the event.

Yes. Print Co supplies branded clothing for teams, businesses, events and promotional use, including workwear, polos, hoodies, jackets, hi-vis and other garments. Depending on the garment and design, branding can be applied using printing or embroidery.

Yes. Existing logos and brand artwork can be adapted for suitable merchandise and clothing. Because the available print area, material and branding method can vary from one product to another, the artwork may need to be adjusted so it reproduces clearly at the required size.

Vector artwork such as AI or EPS is usually the most flexible option for logos, with high-resolution PDF artwork also suitable in many cases. If you are unsure whether the files you have are usable, send them over and the artwork can be checked against the product and branding method.

The available branding area, product shape, material, logo detail and reproduction method all affect the final result. The artwork should be considered specifically for the item rather than simply reduced to fit, particularly where fine text, detailed marks or multiple colours are involved.

Minimum order quantities vary by product. Some merchandise can be produced in relatively small quantities, while other items have higher minimums because of the way they are manufactured or branded. If you have a target quantity, it is worth sharing it early so suitable options can be narrowed down.

Lead times vary considerably by product, quantity, branding method and where the item is manufactured. Some merchandise lines can take several weeks, and certain products may take around two to eight weeks, so fixed event dates or campaign deadlines should be discussed as early as possible.

Yes. Eco-friendly merchandise options are available, including reusable products and items made from more environmentally considered materials. The right choice will still depend on what the product needs to do, the quantity required and the budget available.

Yes. Merchandise can be used for new-starter packs, internal events, team initiatives, recognition and staff gifting as well as external promotion. Combining a small number of genuinely useful items can often create a stronger pack than filling it with products simply for the sake of having more merchandise.

It can be, particularly when the item has a clear purpose. Smaller businesses do not necessarily need a huge range of products; a well-chosen item for customers, prospects, staff or an event can be a practical way to extend the brand beyond printed marketing and digital channels.
