🖊️ What Are Branded Pens?
Branded pens, also known as promotional pens or personalised pens, are standard ballpoint or gel pens customised with your business logo, contact details, or marketing message. These pens are ideal for both internal and external use:
- Office stationery for staff and clients
- Trade show and event giveaways
- Welcome packs and onboarding kits
- Retail promotional items
- Freebies for educational or health campaigns
- Personalised executive gifts
Unlike most promotional products, pens are used frequently — which means your brand gains visibility every time a client, employee, or customer picks one up.
