Don't forget the old school types of Promotional Merchandise like Printed Mouse Mats and Promotional Mugs

Promotional mugs, printed tee shirts and printed mouse mats are the bread and butter of this industry. These are all business gifts we'd love to receive for the simple reason that we'd use them. Who doesn't wear a t-shirt, use a computer or enjoy a cup of tea every morning?

We've spoken a lot recently about some of the more technically innovative products that we sell like our eco friendly USB pens, executive gifts, and personalised giveaways, but the oldies are still the goodies as they say printed mouse mats are still selling like hotcakes, printed t-shirts still flying out of the window (especially now summer has started!) and promotional mugs are perfect for conferences, trade shows and face to face corporate gifts.

Our best-selling hardtop mouse mats, pictured below, offer a large print area for your full-colour design. Used daily in the office, these promotional mouse mats are sure to draw attention to your brand.

These Fruit of the Loom valueweight t-shirts are the ideal promotional apparel for spreading brand awareness. Available in a range of colours and printed with your company branding in up to full colour.

Constantly one of our best-selling branded mugs is the Cambridge promotional mug. The classic shape of the mug and your design printed on the surface will be sure to draw attention to your brand.

Don't forget these oldies. They may be classic but classic can be cool too!
