Promotional outdoor products for business: cost and what to choose for each plan
A summer or outdoor item with your logo costs from £0.78 per unit, including printing. A cool bag, a pair of sunglasses or a picnic blanket do not solve the same need, and they do not suit the same branding method. In this guide you can see today’s prices, the options that fit the most common uses best, and the details worth checking before you order so you get the logo, format and delivery right.
How much does a personalised summer or outdoor item cost?
Unit price with your logo in one colour in the standard print area, excluding VAT and delivery. The price drops as quantity rises because the print setup is spread across more items.

For outdoor events with large crowds
When you need to hand items out quickly, lightweight products with no sizing work best. Sunglasses are a strong fit: they are light, easy to give out by hand, and the logo usually goes on the arm with pad printing; on some bamboo or wooden models it can also be engraved.
Don’t use the full logo if your brand normally needs plenty of space. The arm has limited room, so a symbol or shortened version reads better; it also helps to choose contrast between the logo colour and the frame so it does not get lost.

If you want something personal, easy to distribute and likely to be used afterwards, cool bags and insulated bags work very well. There are lunch formats, can coolers and larger capacities, and the logo is usually added with screen transfer, transfer print or embroidery depending on the fabric.
Don’t choose only with the event day in mind. What matters is how it gets used afterwards: an insulated bag that works for the beach, the car or a day out will come back into use again and again; and if it is going to several sites, let us know because this type of item takes up room in shipping.

For a shared occasion, it makes sense to choose items that several people can use together. Picnic blankets, seat cushions and reusable cutlery are all useful for eating outdoors, and they leave room for a logo in transfer print, embroidery or pad printing depending on the product.
A common mistake is spreading the budget across too many lines. A few well-chosen pieces cover the day better and help you avoid paying separate print setups on items that then fall short.

When the aim is gifting, the look and finish of the item matter more. The Premium range brings together outdoor options with more presence, such as better-finished textiles or accessories for short breaks, with branding methods such as embroidery, transfer print or pad printing depending on the material.
If the campaign needs to say something about recycled or natural materials, mention it when you request a quote. The product page shows the composition and, where applicable, the certification, so you can match the gift more closely to the message you want to give.

| Flying discs and plastic accessories | Screen printing or pad printing | One-colour branding, clear for handouts and busy events |
| Wooden or bamboo games | Laser engraving or CO₂ engraving | In the tone of the material itself, with no ink and a natural finish |
| Boxes and rigid accessories | Laser engraving | Subtle and durable, useful when the gift is presented in a box or case |
