Over half of 2019 has passed and the list of trendy promotional gifts has new additions. Eco-friendly items and tech accessories continue to be big trends but we spotted emerging categories that’ll help with your marketing campaigns, merchandising, business gifts, and events.
This updated promotional trend list is not just about the product itself but also the method in which you can customize the item.
So let’s dive into the list and start getting creative for the next big company event:
TRENDY ECO-FRIENDLY PROMO GIFTS
Reusable straws are still a big trend. They’ve evolved into more travel-friendly variants just like the Retractable Straw with Case.
Even the crush is retractable! The case also comes with a carabiner so your clients can have one for each bag. You can see more reusable straws here.
You’ll love how little space this light weight Opo coffee mug is. It is so collapsible and compact that takes up less room in your pocket, backpack, and they fit in your car or camping cup holder as well. Now your company can have its own Opo Coffee Mug. Add your logo on one side and pick from four different colors.
Still under trending environmental-friendly promotional gifts – Travel vacuum water bottles. And when it comes to vacuum water bottles, S’well is the brand of choice. This 16 oz. S’well Travel Bottle has been particularly popular for business gifting.
Make this premium line of vacuum insulated water bottles your next set of corporate gifts. The S’well Travel has a wide mouth design making it ideal for ice cubes and slices of fruits. Engraving logos on promo gifts has been the decoration of choice and this promotional drinkware provides that option. Also available in other colors!
Finally, patterned and printed packable reusable tote bags make it to the trends list. The RuMe® Classic Medium Tote has multiple print designs to match your brand’s style. Add your logo on one side and give them away for rewards programs, thank you gifts, and incentives.
The sewn-in hook and loop closure straps contains the tote when rolled so it stays small and easy to pack away when not in use.
TRENDY TECH ACCESSORIES THAT PROMOTE
Phone accessories have ruled the tech accessory category and these logo branded Spinsockets are a hot item!
The SpinSocket is a fidget spinner, phone stand, and tether in one! Full-color decoration is a top preferred imprint method and this tech accessory provides that need. Great for almost any type of business – from lifestyle brands to corporate ones.
Wireless charging is now a normal way to power up devices and there’s plenty of Qi charging pads in the market. The Solstice Wireless Charging Pad is particularly unique because of the pad’s surface. The cloth and wood surface options make these a chic business tech gift. Imprint a one-color logo on the charging pad surface
The Gravitis Wireless Car Phone Charger and Holder combines wireless charging tech and automobile safety.
Stand out with a laser-etched decoration of your logo right in the middle of the pad. Hand these out as corporate gifts or market a dealership with this techie car accessory.
Last on the list for trendy mobile tech accessories is the phone wallet, but this time, it’s all about the glam! Since phone wallets have become quite common, your brand needs to take it up a notch with something like the Metallic Phone Wallet.
Perfect For Carrying Identification, Room Keys, Cash Or Credit Cards. If you’re targeting a female audience, then this can score you some points. Beauty brands and even bloggers can customize these with a fab graphic design.
SELF-CARE PROMOTIONAL GIVEAWAYS ARE IN
There’s now greater awareness for self-care and wellness. Promote your brand with a promotional product that relaxes. The Face Sheet Masks are a trendy giveaways gift this 2019. Add a custom label to customize. Great for marketing mailers and booth swag.
Custom sleeves and custom backing cards also available for these sheet masks. Essentially, the user unfolds the face mask and leaves it on for 10 to 15 minutes. Spas, hotels, and creative agencies can definitely use these as freebies.
In line with the mask, these Brightening Under Eye Hydro Gels would make fabulous leave-behinds and complimentary gifts.
