Promotional Key Rings-Plastic, Metal, or Leather?

If you’ve decided on key rings as your next promotional item, the next step is choosing the material you want your key rings to be made from. There are three main types of textiles used in making printed key rings-plastic, metal, and leather. For the most part, key rings are made from one of these three materials, but there are some options available that are made from a mixture of leather and metal, or metal and plastic.

Plastic

Plastic is the best option if you are working within a small budget, with the least expensive plastic key rings available for as little as £0.19 per item from YesGifts.

A great advantage of plastic key rings is the sheer variety that is available-there are plastic key rings of all shapes and colors-and if there is no key ring available in the shape you need, you can have your desired shape custom made and printed for you, starting at just £0.30 per item.

Metal

Metal key rings are stylish and durable, and they’re affordable, too. Most metal key rings do cost more than the plastic variety, but even so it is possible to buy metal key rings for as little as £0.49 per piece.

Many metal key ring styles offer the option of having your design precision laser engraved on the key ring, rather than printed. Engraving is an excellent choice when the design allows it-this type of design has increased longevity and it’s a very classy and stylish looking option.

If you prefer your metal key rings with some additional color, you can choose a hybrid metal and plastic design. These types of key rings are typically available in the £1.00-£2.00 range.

Leather

If neither plastic nor metal takes your fancy, there are some very attractive options in both leather and imitation leather. For £0.33 per item, you can have a Vivella leather-look key ring in a distinctive pear shape, or in a double-stitched circular shape for £0.58 per item. Both of these Vivella options offer the chance to upgrade to either of two genuine leather options-the highly popular Finecell leather for around £0.20 more per item, or the luxurious Tuscana leather for an additional £0.30 over the price of the Vivella.

Each of these leather options includes the price of a foil-blocked design that creates a very special, classical look-available in a range of color options including black, brown and burgundy, these are very popular executive gift items.

Plastic, metal, and leather each have a very different look and feel-the variety of bright colors available with plastic, for example, add a touch of fun to your promotional items. Leather, on the other hand, is a classic option that has a more classic, up-market feel, even if the item doesn’t cost much more than a plastic key ring. Metal lends a professional touch to your items-metal or metal and plastic hybrids are elegant and functional. Which type is best for your business will depend on the type of image your want your promotional items to project.
