Case study

Event merch that became a brand moment for Legl

Legl wanted giveaways that drew people to their stand and had a story behind them. So they swapped high volumes of standard freebies for a smaller range of premium merch: bamboo notebooks, branded artisan chocolate and power banks built to last.

The merch acted as a real conversation starter. People were drawn to the stand and curious to hear the story behind the products. We noticed higher footfall, more meaningful conversations and a greater number of follow-ups post-event compared to previous years.

Sustainability rating

Every product graded, and we show our working

Most suppliers put an eco label on part of their range without saying what earns it. We check every product against five criteria, and the number it meets sets its grade. This marketplace lists the products that meet at least two.

  • B2 criteria metClears our bar on two independent counts
  • C1 criterion metOne point in its favour, and no more. We only sell this if no viable alternatives are available.
  • D0 criteria metNothing we can evidence. We don't sell this.

Questions? We've got you covered

The frames in this range use renewable and recycled materials rather than standard new plastic. Common options include bamboo, wheat straw and recycled plastics such as recycled PET, plus polypropylene for budget-friendly runs. The exact material is listed on each product.

Most pairs in this range carry full UV400 protection, which blocks UV rather than just tinting the lens. UV protection and the lens details are shown on each product, so you can choose frames that genuinely protect the wearer's eyes and not just a novelty item.

Yes. The arms give a clear, flat surface for branding. Pad printing onto the temples is the most common method, with laser engraving available on bamboo and wooden frames and digital transfer or doming on selected styles. Send your artwork and we will advise the best method for the frame.

Minimum order quantities vary by product and decoration method and are shown on each item. Sunglasses are well suited to bulk event giveaways, and we confirm the exact minimum and price for your run when you request a quote.

Lead times depend on the frame, the decoration method and the quantity, and are shown on each product. We confirm a firm timeline when you request a quote, so you can line a run up with a festival, conference or summer campaign date.

Bamboo and wheat straw frames are a durable, lower-impact alternative to standard plastic and take branding well, with laser engraving giving a clean tonal mark on natural frames. Each product page lists the material and protection so you can pick the right balance of look, budget and credentials.

Branded sunglasses with your logo

Branded sunglasses are one of the most useful summer giveaways a brand can run, worn long after the festival, conference or sports day they were handed out at. This range gathers the eco-conscious frames from our promotional catalogue in one place: recycled, bamboo and wheat straw styles you can print or engrave with your logo, curated for events, goodie bags and seasonal campaigns.

Materials and lens protection

The range leans into renewable and recycled materials rather than standard plastic. You will find frames in bamboo, recycled PET (rPET), wheat straw and recycled polypropylene, alongside more conventional plastic options for tighter budgets. Most pairs carry full UV400 protection, so they block the everyday UV your eyes need shielding from rather than acting as a novelty item, and some styles include a carry pouch.

Decorating your sunglasses

Sunglasses brand well because the arms give you a clear, flat surface for your logo. The most common method here is pad printing onto the temples, with laser engraving available on bamboo and wooden frames for a more natural, tonal mark. Digital transfer and doming are also options on selected styles. Minimum order quantities and lead times are shown on each product and confirmed when you request a quote, so you can match a run to your event date.
