Promotional Metal Pens

Promotional Metal Pens Buying Guide

Can you brand metal pens with my logo?

With their striking appearance and neat branding area, metal promotional pens can make a fantastic canvas for any design, whether it's a logo, a slogan or contact details.

Many of them can actually be branded in a variety of ways, from striking one-colour print through to sophisticated engraving. If you want to see how your logo will look on a particular pen before you confirm your order, just let us know – we’d be happy to arrange a free-of-charge visual.

What are the most popular branded metal pens?

Our best-selling metal pens include:

• Electra GRS Recycled Metal Ballpens
• Recycled Mole Mate Satin Metal Ballpens
• Nimrod Soft Feel Stylus Ballpens
• Parker Jotter Stainless Steel Ballpens
• Express Engraved Beck Metal Ballpens

Metal pens are a fantastic choice as they boast high-perceived value, with options available to match any marketing budget.

Printing versus engraving: which works best for metal pens?

Some of our pens are only suitable for printing (ranging from one colour to full colour), while some can be engraved as well. Available branding options are always clearly displayed on a pen’s product page, meaning you can quickly see whether a particular pen can be printed, engraved or both.

Both options have their advantages. Printing is a strong contender if you have a vibrant logo that relies on its colours to come to life, while engraving is a great choice if your logo is more minimalist or is a single colour. Generally speaking, engraving looks more premium and won’t fade or chip over time. Printed metal pens will typically be cheaper than engraved metal pens, making them a solid choice for smaller marketing budgets.
