Choosing the Right Stubby Holder
The right stubby holder will depend on how it will be used, the impression you want to create, your branding requirements and your budget.
Neoprene Stubby Holders
Neoprene stubby holders provide effective insulation and a soft, comfortable finish. They are suitable for events, sporting clubs, hospitality venues, branded merchandise and promotional campaigns. Neoprene also works well when detailed or full-colour branding is required.
Foldable Stubby Holders
Foldable stubby holders are lightweight, economical and easy to distribute or store. They are a practical choice for large events, festivals, trade shows and high-volume giveaways where affordability is important.
Stainless Steel Stubby Holders
Stainless steel stubby holders offer a more substantial and premium presentation. Their durable construction makes them well suited to corporate gifts, staff recognition, client appreciation and higher-value promotional campaigns.
Cork and Jute Stubby Holders
Cork and jute finishes provide a distinctive, natural-looking alternative to conventional materials. These styles can complement hospitality promotions, outdoor events and campaigns where the appearance and texture of the product are important.
Custom-Shaped Stubby Holders
A custom-shaped stubby holder can be designed to reflect a logo, product, mascot or campaign theme. This option is particularly effective for product launches, special events and promotions where creating a memorable design is the priority.
When comparing options, consider the required quantity, drink container size, branding method, artwork, budget and delivery deadline. If you are unsure which style will work best, call, email or chat with Brandconnect and we can help you select an appropriate stubby holder for your campaign.
Branding Methods for Stubby Holders
The most suitable branding method will depend on the stubby holder material, artwork, number of colours, required quantity and budget. Not every branding method is available on every product.
Screen Printing
Screen printing applies solid colours directly to the surface of the stubby holder. It is a practical and economical option for simple logos, wording and designs with a limited number of colours, particularly when ordering larger quantities.
Full-Colour Sublimation Printing
Sublimation printing allows detailed, full-colour artwork to be reproduced across most or all of the stubby holder. It is well suited to photographs, gradients, detailed illustrations and designs that wrap around the product. Sublimation is generally available on selected white polyester or neoprene styles.
Digital Transfer Printing
Digital transfer printing reproduces detailed, multicoloured artwork on a defined branding area. It can be suitable for logos with fine details or multiple colours when full-surface sublimation is not required. The available print area will depend on the selected stubby holder.
Laser Engraving
Laser engraving is available on selected stainless steel stubby holders. It removes the surface coating to create a permanent, understated finish that will not peel or fade like a printed design. This method works particularly well for corporate gifts and premium merchandise.
Custom Branding Options
Selected stubby holders may also be available in custom shapes, reversible designs or with branding on more than one position. These options can create a more distinctive result but may require larger minimum quantities and longer production times.
Brandconnect will recommend a branding method after considering the selected product, artwork, quantity, budget and required delivery date. A digital artwork proof will be supplied for approval before production begins.
