Orion Metal Keyring

The Orion Metal Keyring is a custom, made-to-order keyring finished in durable full-colour print, made to survive daily use on a set of keys for years without fading. It is the choice for anyone who wants their logo, name or design on something a customer, member or fan actually carries with them every day, not just a printed card that gets binned. Made to order in Hull in low minimum quantities, with bulk pricing that brings the unit cost down as your order size goes up.

The Orion Metal Keyring is a solid metal keyring blank, printed with your artwork and finished with a protective coating, then fitted with a split ring so it is ready to attach to keys, bags or lanyards straight away. It suits businesses that want a small, premium giveaway or retail item, clubs and societies that want member merchandise, and event organisers who want something guests will keep rather than throw away.

What are Metal Keyrings?

A metal keyring in this range starts life as a flat metal blank, usually in a simple shape such as a circle, rectangle or rounded square, though custom outlines can be produced for the right quantity. Unlike a soft rubber or plastic fob, the metal base gives it a bit of weight and a premium feel in the hand, which matters if you are handing it to a customer as a thank you gift or selling it at retail.

It works equally well as a single logo keyring produced in the hundreds for a corporate giveaway, or as a small batch run for a local business, tradesperson or independent shop that wants something branded to sell on the counter or hand out to regulars.

How they are made

We start from your logo, photo or design and print it in full colour directly onto the metal surface, so there is no limit on the number of colours or the level of detail compared with engraving or embossing. Because the print is digital, gradients, photographs and fine text all reproduce cleanly, and we always send a free digital proof before anything goes into production so you can check the layout, colours and sizing first.

Once the artwork is approved, the print is sealed under a protective clear finish that resists scratching, scuffing and everyday knocks, then the keyring is trimmed to shape and the split ring is fitted. The metal base itself resists the fading and wear that paper or card promotional items suffer from being carried loose in a pocket or bag.

Best uses

Because it combines a premium feel with low minimum order quantities, this keyring works for a wide range of branding jobs, from one off personal gifts to large corporate runs.

• Corporate giveaways and trade show merchandise printed with a company logo
• Retail add on products sold at the till in independent shops and cafes
• Club, society and sports team merchandise for members and supporters
• Personalised gifts for weddings, birthdays and anniversaries with names or photos
• Estate agent and hospitality key fobs printed with property or venue branding
• Charity and fundraising keyrings sold to supporters at events

Sizes, shapes and options

The Orion Metal Keyring is made to order rather than pulled from generic stock, so sizing, shape and quantity are set to suit your job rather than forced into a fixed catalogue size. As with all our custom keyrings, the unit price falls as the quantity rises, and minimum order quantities are kept low so a single gift or a short retail run is just as easy to order as a large corporate batch. If you are not sure what size or shape will work best for your artwork, send it over and we will suggest a layout as part of the free proof.
