Of course, summer 2021 is going to be a little different for many Brits due to the impact of Coronavirus and the slow easing of restrictions. However, whilst overseas holidays might not necessarily be on the cards at the moment, that's not to say your customers or colleagues won't be able to max the 'fun in the sun' potential - with your brand helping them every step of the way. After all, the UK is finally forecast to see at least 13 days of ultimate heat...

From branded caps to promotional sunglasses, we have all sorts of branded giveaways available that are perfect for helping your branding shine bright as the sun throughout the summer heatwave. Browse our full range of summer promotional products and read on to discover some of our favourites...

Help People Keep Hydrated With Our Branded Water Bottles

Dehydration is all too easy to fall victim to in the blazing heat of summer - so help your customers and colleagues hit their H20 quota by giving them promotional water bottles, printed with your logo. Whether they're used at home, in the workplace or on their travels, our range of branded water bottles are perfectly sized for transporting to the beach, the office, the gym and so on. 

We have a wide range of printed water bottles available (including promotional metal water bottles, branded plastic water bottles and more), with options available in all sorts of shapes, styles and sizes.

With many of our branded water bottles available in a wide range of different colours, you can be confident that you'll find the perfect match for your corporate identity - and you can even tap the 'Full Colour' filter to view the custom water bottles that can be printed top-to-toe with your artwork, too.

Keep Staff Cool With Desktop USB Fans

Whether your colleagues are still working from home or are back in the office, one thing's for certain: the air-con struggle will be real. From stuffy workplaces and window wars to home offices that feel more humid than the Amazon rainforest, a muggy working environment isn't exactly conducive for your colleagues to deliver brilliance. 

With that in mind, help make it a thing of the past by providing your staff - whether in person or through the post - with their very own Desktop USB Fans. Perfectly sized for helping workers keep their collective cool throughout the day, these mini branded fans are perfectly sized for sitting on a desk. With your logo printed in up to four colours on the centre of the fan, it will offer inescapable visibility for your logo, all summer long.

We have other fan options available, too: our Fabric Handheld Fans feature your logo printed onto the handle; want to emblazon a fan with your artwork? Be sure to take a look at our Full Colour Fabric Folding Fans, which are great for offering high-impact brand awareness.

We also have handheld fans available; printed with your artwork in one colour, they offer striking impact for your logo.

Keep Customers Covered With Branded Ponchos

Considering the miserable wet weather the UK experienced throughout May, it might be wise to give some thought to rainy day promotional giveaways. 

Of course, there's one key product that instantly springs to mind when it comes to keeping dry in case of unexpected downpours: printed ponchos!

Branded with your logo, our range of ponchos includes disposable and reusable options that are ideally sized for your customers to take out and about with them. Fuss-free, budget-friendly and high-impact, our branded ponchos are great for asserting your business as one that's always there for its customers, come rain or shine.
