Wooden Promotional Products: The Complete Guide for Businesses

Wooden promotional products do a job that plastic merchandise struggles with: people keep them. A branded keyring, coaster or clock made from engraved oak gets used and stays in sight, rather than going in a drawer or a bin. Everything in this guide is made to order in our workshop in Buckley, North Wales — engraved with your logo or wording, with bulk discounts applied automatically at checkout. Here is the full range and how each part of it works.

Branded keyrings

The workhorse of promotional merchandise — oak and bamboo keyrings engraved with a logo on one or both sides, in shapes and sizes from 45mm up to large 100x50mm ovals. Estate agents, hotels, clubs and trades businesses are the regular buyers. Browse custom wooden keyrings or read the business keyrings buyer's guide for sizes, sides and artwork advice.

Logo coasters

Engraved coasters put your brand on every table and desk — in oak, bamboo or slate, round or square. They suit cafés, bars, offices and corporate gift boxes. See the coasters collection or the full logo coasters guide.

Name badges

Engraved wooden name badges — oak or bamboo, with pin, magnet or lanyard fastenings, including reusable wipeable designs for events and delegates. The wooden name badges collection covers the range, and the ordering guide walks through materials, sizes and fastenings.

QR code and review signs

Freestanding oak blocks and hanging signs carrying a QR code — for Google reviews, WiFi access, menus or social media. They sit on counters and tables doing quiet promotional work all day. The complete QR code signs guide covers choosing and setting them up.

Branded Christmas baubles

A seasonal one with a long shelf life — engraved wooden baubles carrying your logo, given to customers and staff each December. Corporate orders are usually placed from summer onwards. See wooden Christmas products for business or the branded baubles guide.

Logo wall clocks

A 30cm engraved oak clock with your logo on the face — for receptions, club rooms and long-service gifts. The wall clocks guide covers the designs, and the wider clocks collection includes custom text versions.

Materials

Three materials cover the range: 4mm oak veneered MDF for most signs, badges and keyrings; FSC-certified Moso bamboo (certificate RINA-COC-001256) for the bamboo range; and birch plywood for selected items. Engraving is burnt directly into the wood — no inks or prints to wear off.

Logos and artwork

Each product page has a logo upload button — add your artwork there and our free templated design service sets it up for engraving. Black and white logos reproduce best; colour logos can usually be converted. If you would like to check the layout before we make anything, request a proof in the personalisation box.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a minimum order?
No — you can order a single item to check quality before a larger run. Discounts begin at 20 units.

Can you reproduce our brand colours?
Engraving is burnt into the wood rather than printed, so logos reproduce as engraved linework — which is why black and white artwork works best. The result is a natural wood finish rather than a colour print.

How do I order across several product types?
Add each product to your basket with your logo uploaded on each — discounts are applied per product at checkout. The branded merchandise collection and the wider business range are the quickest places to browse everything together.
