What's better on a cold winter day than staying inside curled up under a blanket with a pair of fuzzy socks, and hot cocoa? Blankets have a positive perception, as they help us stay warm while providing feelings of comfort and security. As there are biological and psychological reasons that keep us attached to blankets, this makes them ideal gifts for several occasions. Send out cozy vibes on your next promotion and personalize a product that will warm everyone’s heart this winter.
Company Events
Picnics at the park are incomplete without blankets. Order these for your team members and staff and give them away at your next company event. Whether it’s a milestone achievement, an anniversary, or the holidays, custom blankets make great employee appreciation gifts. Each time recipients sit down for a picnic they will see your company logo. Custom blankets aren’t limited to any specific business, event, or demographic, making them great for increasing brand awareness. Regardless of your industry, everyone can use this versatile promotional product.
Travel
With many people looking to get away from the cold, the winter season is also associated with vacation and travel. Anyone in the travel and hotel industry should consider personalizing one of our Fleece Stadium Blankets which rolls up and includes a carrying handle. Alternatively, we also have the Oversized Fleece Blanket which comes in a case with zippered closure. These make a great addition to any road trip as they can be stowed away and kept in case of an emergency. With travel being an important theme in the early part of the year, your company or event can benefit from adding these to your marketing.
Repurpose
We always like to highlight the longevity and durability of our products, especially when they extend the advertising potential of the item. Many promotional products have alternative uses that give the public more opportunities to interact with your logo. Blankets are among the products that can be repurposed in many creative ways, making them a good investment for your brand. Old and unused blankets are great for pets and can be used to protect furniture. Lightly used blankets can be set down as a tarp for painting and they can even be turned into new pillows. They are perfect for decoration and many DIY projects, simply put your creativity to work!
Each year 21 million pounds of textiles end up in landfills, and only a small percentage of donated clothing ends up in the secondhand market. You can do your part in diminishing textile waste by finding alternative uses for your products when possible. Although their primary use is to provide warmth and comfort there are many alternative uses that extend the life span of blankets, making them really popular gifts this season!
