Branded Hand Fans
Branded hand fans for summer events
Branded hand fans are a low-cost, high-visibility giveaway that keeps crowds comfortable at festivals, sports fixtures, conferences and weddings while putting your logo in everyone's hand. They are light to ship, simple to hand out in volume and genuinely useful on a hot day, which makes them one of the more memorable summer promotional items.
Materials and styles
The range covers traditional hand fans and battery-powered mini fans. The folding and rigid hand fans include bamboo-and-paper fans such as the Carmen and Bamboo fan, a wooden fan made from Schima Superba wood with a polyester leaf, and frosted plastic manual fans in a wide choice of colours. Several of these fans use bamboo, paper, wood or recycled plastic, so you can choose a renewable or reclaimed material rather than virgin plastic.
Electric and battery fans
For something more powerful, there are pocket-sized portable fans made from recycled plastic. These include the Aervia mini fan with three cooling speeds and the Ventio magnetic phone fan that clips to a handset for cooling on the move, both a step up from a traditional fan for longer events.
Branding your fans
Your logo is applied to the fan panel or blade, typically by pad printing, screen printing or full-colour digital print, or by laser engraving on the wooden and bamboo fans, depending on the model. Print area, colours and the exact method are shown on each product, and we colour match to your brand, so the decoration matches your artwork. Most styles come from low minimums, so they suit both small event runs and large festival giveaways.
Why buy from Social Supermarket
Social Supermarket is a certified B Corp, and we curate this range for products that use bamboo, paper or recycled plastic with checked supplier credentials, rather than defaulting to all-plastic construction. Every order also funds our wider social and environmental impact, so a practical summer handout gives something back.

Frequently asked questions
What are branded hand fans made from?+
Our hand fans come in a range of materials. The traditional fans include bamboo-and-paper fans, a wooden fan made from Schima Superba wood with a polyester leaf, and frosted plastic manual fans in a wide choice of colours. The battery-powered portable mini fans are made from recycled plastic. The materials are shown on each product.
Are these hand fans eco friendly?+
Several are made from renewable or recycled materials, including the bamboo-and-paper fans and the recycled-plastic mini fans, which is why we curate them. We describe the actual material on each product rather than labelling the whole range as eco, as some styles are plastic. Choosing the bamboo, paper or recycled-plastic options keeps more material renewable or reclaimed.
Can I get hand fans printed with my logo?+
Yes. Your logo is applied to the fan panel or blade, usually by pad printing, screen printing or full-colour digital print, or by laser engraving on the wooden and bamboo fans, depending on the model. The available print area, colours and method are shown on each product so you can match the decoration to your artwork.
