Photo Magnets
April 28, 2006

This week we are doing a large order (45,000 of our photomagnets).  These have to be mounted to a card - 3 magnets to a card and supplied in a bag with an envelope.  The images are stunning and we are sure we will get permission to show them on the news blog soon.

We are making some magnetic dartboards at the moment for a really enthusiastic customer which is always nice.  The dartboards are made from iron sheet and we hear  that you can hit the dartboard from 16 feet with one of the magnetic darts.  The dartboards are 500mm diameter and are being supplied in a smart presentation box made by us.  The game has turned into something of a sport in the office.  You may have to be careful from a health and safety point of view - insurance claims mentioning magnetic darts are probably not that popular.  Anyway we are very glad we are making some people happy and would never cast aspersions on our customer's having too much time. 

Cork Back Coasters
April 19, 2006

We spoke to a customer this morning that bought cork back coasters from us 10 years ago and they are still being used.  However much they were (considerably more than they cost now); after 10 years you have to admit that this is really good value for money.  Now we know they last that long maybe we should charge more!  The cork back coasters are made from gloss laminated print + greyboard + obviously the cork.  We can produce them in 2 thicknesses either 1500 micron or 3000 micron.  We can categorically state these are very durable, long lasting and good value for money

We’re not famous
April 13, 2006

But…..we’re so impressed with this that I just have to give promotional fridge magnets a rest and admit that sometimes there is more to life. 

Robbie’s brother was on the first 5 minutes of Hustle, not only that he’s also on the episode 1 clip that you can watch on the internet.  When he’s bored with the high life I’m sure he’ll be back here to weld a few promotional tax disc holders.

Make Me A Million
April 7, 2006

We were very proud to see our promotional fridge magnets being put to their proper use on Make Me a Million by the Lean Team.

When we were making them we had no idea they would appear on television being packed up and sent out.

The fridge magnets make a perfect promotional tool for diets or weight loss programmes.

It would be good if we could claim that magnets help you to loose weight but unfortuantely we can’t.
