Teacher Keyrings: Sizes, Materials and How to Personalise
Share
Direct answer: teacher gift keyrings come in oak veneered MDF, FSC-certified bamboo or birch plywood, most measure around 35–80mm, and can be engraved with a name, message or logo. Here's the practical detail on sizing, materials and personalisation options.
Personalised School Leavers Keyrings
Our School Leavers Keyrings measure around 35mm and can be personalised with a name, school and year. Made from oak veneered MDF, they engrave with clean, consistent contrast.
Personalised Pencil Keyrings
The Personalised Pencil Keyring is our best-selling shape, sized for a standard keyring and personalised with a name and year.
Alphabet Keyrings
The Alphabet Keyring is a decorative initial letter, available in oak or birch plywood, and can be laser-engraved with a name.
Hotel and general-purpose oak keyrings
For a plainer keyring not specific to school gifting, our Oak Keyrings are available blank or engraved and work well for a simple, general-purpose gift.
Choosing a material
Oak veneered MDF is our standard material — FSC-certified, warm in tone, and consistent across a batch. FSC-certified Moso bamboo (certificate RINA-COC-001256) is our most eco-documented option, with a checkable certificate number. Birch plywood is used on a smaller number of shaped products and carries no sustainability claim.
How to personalise
Add a name, short message, or school detail in the personalisation box on the product page. To include a logo, use the Upload Your Logo button — black and white or high-contrast artwork engraves most cleanly.
