New Year, New Merchandise Ideas
Start 2023 with fresh new merchandise
As we welcome the New Year we’re introducing new products and new ranges to help give your branded merchandise a refresh for the year ahead.
Many new products focus on providing more sustainable options and helping customers reduce their waste and even recycle it.
2023 introduces new clothing made with innovative fabrics, new stationery, drinkware, technology and bags. Even some of our older products have new colours being introduced providing more opportunities for you to match your merchandise to your brand colours.
Inkless Stationery
Our range of eco-friendly pens continues to expand but even with the best RPET pen the issue still lies inside the pen itself with ink refills. As the majority of refills cannot be recycled these latest inkless pens provide an option to eliminate the need for ballpoint ink.
These inkless pens are made with a metal alloy that oxidises with the surface of paper providing a clean, smudge-free surface. Inkless pens are considered long-lasting compared to ballpoint pens and not only extend the life of your pen but the exposure length of your branding.
While inkless pens have been around for a while, their styles are now adapting to replicate modern pens on the market. Although the price per unit may seem higher than their ink refill counterpart, the price goes a long way and each pen can last for many years; some a lifetime.
Paper free Notebooks
6.3 million tonnes of paper is thrown away in the UK contributing to the 15 billion trees being cut down annually worldwide. Paper-free and recycled paper alternatives have slowly become available with a notable increase over 2022, especially in seed and stone paper stationery.
As more customers switch to paper-free products, reusable products like the Rocketbook emerged. Although the Rocketbook eliminates the need for ever purchasing a notebook again, the initial price point can exceed some budgets. For those that are considering something more budget-friendly, we’re introducing two new erasable notebooks.
Both notebooks feature a re-writable surface that can be erased with the included cloth. The Nobuuk is compatible with any document-scanning app making it a close competitor to the Rocketbook but with a notably cheaper price tag.
Brand new branded bags
The Pheebs bag range has expanded with two new additions, the gusset tote shopper and a standard tote but with a front pocket. These eco-friendly bags are made from recycled cotton and polyester and can be considered budget-friendly options while also providing more sustainably sourced branded bags.
The new Repreve Ocean range offers a collection of bags made from recycled ocean plastic in a stylish ocean blue colour. The plastic waste is collected worldwide and spun into a traceable yarn that verifies the origin of each bag.
Many brands such as Quiksilver, Patagonia, Speedo and Volcom are using this sustainable yarn in their garments and with this latest bag range you can personalise your next promotional bag with the same yarn.
Whether you’re looking for your next commuter backpack or weekend duffel travel bag these bags are high quality, durable and all ready to be branded with your company logo.
Bespoke Sugarcane Drinkware
During 2022 popularity grew for customers sourcing more sustainable drinkware, bottles like the Ocean Bottle and the H2O Eco looked to support charities while also recycling plastic waste to provide quality branded bottles.
Join the Pipe has been promoting its reusable bottles and refill stations since 2017 and the proceeds from their bottles go into providing safe drinking water in developing countries. As of 2023, we are able to provide these bottles branded with your logo with further possibilities of creating a bespoke-shaped bottle.
Each bottle is made from sugarcane and every bottle contributes to drinking water projects allowing you to support their cause and switch to stylish, reusable drinkware. The Nairobi is the most popular bottle in the range with its classy diamond design and 500ml capacity.
