Organisations utilising exhibitions to promote their brands, products and services are continuously looking for cost effective merchandise to communicate their message. So why will a high proportion of these organisations almost always use promotional pens to communicate their message at an event?

It is rational to assume the organisation will have considered the promotional pen as one of the most cost effective give-away mechanics and they will have certainly thought about the impact of branding a pen (assuming the print is good quality the branding on the pen only becomes redundant when once the ink is finished and the pen no longer has a use). This functional selling point identifies the underlying fact of why the promotional pen is such  popular Exhibition giveaways. The product has a practical purpose and will therefore be used regularly, ensuring the organisations corporate message is at the forefront of the recipient’s mind for the entire life of the pen.

The Pen Warehouse continues to invest in product development with over 30 unique promotional pen designs already launched over the last five years. These are products that have been designed from scratch by our development team in-house, rendered, prototyped and then taken through to final tooling. Typically, this entire process from concept to launch takes over two years and there are currently numerous promotional pens in various stages of development that will be rolled out over the coming years.

Neil Cleere, our Managing Director heads up the design team having been a design engineer and draughtsman in his early career and our in-house facilities include CAD, modelling and prototyping. It is a little known fact that we have been investing in this way for many years but we recognised a long time ago that our continued growth and success would not only require technological innovation, but also product innovation.

Contrary to some industry opinion, a new promotional pen is not necessarily “just anotherexample of  printed pens”, it represents an opportunity to stimulate sales, exploit new printing processes and gain entry to new markets.

We are unashamedly passionate about promotional pens and the pursuit of new opportunities to exploit their full potential whilst working in partnership with our loyal and supportive distributor network throughout the UK and mainland Europe.

We are pleased to announce that we have now successfully installed specialist machinery that will allow us to offer larger print areas on the Contour Ballpen. This popular promotional pen is also known in the market as the Curvy Ballpen and is now one of the largest selling promotional items in Europe, despite its limited print area.

The Pen Warehouse has now solved this problem after several months of development work and we can now offer very large print areas on both sides of the barrel. These enhanced print areas come at no extra cost to you. See here for details. of what is possible with our Contour Printed Pens.

The World’s first recycled refill is now available in both our Envirostick and Envirostick Extra Ballpen ranges. It is made from post-consumer recycled Tetra Pak cartons and is the frst one of its kind. This material is called EcoAllene and 100% of the plastic components that make up the Envirostick Ballpen are recycled.

Why Settle For Less? We can now offer an even larger print area on the Contour Ballpen, one of the UK’s best selling promotional pens. The original print area dimensions of 45mm x 7mm have now been increased to cover an area of 57mm x 10mm giving you the maximum coverage for your advertising slogans.
