Australian-Made Promotional Products
As an Australian, family-owned business we love to support other Australian businesses. We’re proud to be working closely with manufacturers who are creating outstanding products in Australia for national and international clients. Below are Impact’s Top 6 Australian-made promotional products perfect for branded merchandise and corporate gifts.
1. Akubra
We’ll start the list with a classic. The Akubra hat is an Australian icon designed and manufactured in Kempsey, New South Wales. Its quality and style is renowned throughout the world thanks to movies like ‘Crocodile Dundee’ and ‘The Man from Snowy River’, as well as supplying the Australian military since 1914. Stylish in a country, lifestyle or urban setting, these hats are a statement of true Australian craftsmanship. The possibility to have your brand on a real Aussie icon exists!
2. Hand-Poured Soy Wax Candles
Soy wax candles burn cleaner and slower than traditional candles. When they’re scent infused the smell is also clearer, making for a more efficient diffusion and evoking the senses. The products that can be personalized – custom branded and scented, are hand-poured in Perth and distributed from Sydney, guaranteeing fast national delivery for this luxury gift.
3. Socks
Socks stand out because almost every standing person is in them! More seriously, if your branding exercise is to reach a certain demographic or target market, the intended recipient is reminded very regularly of your brand, even if it is just seeing it in the drawer every day. However, if it’s a well-designed comfortable sock, like the ones from our Sydney manufacturer, a branded pair could easily become the favourite.
4. Leather Coaster
We jump on the modern-farmhouse bandwagon next, to feature an Australian leather coaster. These products look great debossed and add warmth and class to corporate spaces with their rustic aesthetic. They’re artisan-crafted and distributed from Sydney and perfect for trendy interior styling.
5. Sports Bottle
While not an immediate stand-out, this particular sports bottle is 100% Australian-made by one of Impact’s award-winning manufacturers based in Melbourne. They’ve been in business for over 25 years and provide high-quality products. Because they’re Australian-made, we always have access to the stock and can provide quick shipping.
6. Chocolates
Chocolates look stunning in the many block shapes available or in custom 2D, or even 3D, moulded shapes. The sweet treat is dressed in a custom, full-colour wrapper or printed foil and can be topped off in a branded presentation box. They look fantastic and this is all before you get to the taste! Choose milk, light or dark chocolate made in Melbourne from the finest Australian ingredients and your clients or customers will definitely take notice.
Australia produces some very special products. Those above are just some of what’s available for promotional merchandise and all made in our own back yard. You don’t have to look far for your next promotional product.
