Project Overview

When a global food brand approached Printlux with an urgent requirement for 3,000 bespoke branded drink stirrers, there was one major challenge – time.

With less than one week from artwork approval to delivery, every stage of production had to be carefully managed to ensure the products arrived in time for a high-profile promotional activation.

Using our in-house manufacturing facilities in Bridgnorth, Shropshire, our team produced, quality checked and dispatched all 3,000 drink stirrers within the required timeframe, helping deliver a successful campaign.


The Brief

Our client required a premium promotional product that would become part of the customer experience during their event.

The project included:

  • 3,000 custom branded drink stirrers
  • Bespoke size created specifically for the campaign
  • High-resolution full-colour UV printed topper
  • Food-safe materials
  • Durable finish suitable for event use
  • Production and delivery in under one week
  • Consistent branding across the entire production run

The finished stirrers would be placed inside drinks, creating a memorable branded touchpoint that guests could photograph, share and remember long after the event.


The Challenge

Large-volume promotional orders with tight deadlines require careful planning and efficient production.

Every stirrer needed to be:

  • Identical in size and finish
  • Colour consistent throughout the production run
  • Durable enough for food and beverage service
  • Professionally finished with crisp branding
  • Delivered on schedule without compromising quality

Our production team coordinated every stage of the project—from manufacturing and UV printing through to quality control and dispatch—to ensure everything stayed on track.


Our Solution

Printlux manufactured every drink stirrer in-house using precision laser cutting and high-resolution UV printing technology.

This allowed us to maintain complete control over production quality while meeting the client's demanding turnaround.

Each stirrer featured:

  • Bespoke shape and size
  • Premium food-safe acrylic
  • Full-colour UV printed branding
  • Precision laser-cut finish
  • Durable, event-ready construction
  • Consistent colour and print quality across all 3,000 units

Producing everything in-house meant we could react quickly and keep the project moving efficiently from start to finish.


The Results

✔ 3,000 custom branded drink stirrers produced

✔ Manufactured and delivered in less than one week

✔ Bespoke sizing created specifically for the campaign

✔ Premium full-colour branding on every piece

✔ Used as part of a major food brand activation

✔ Delivered on schedule for a successful live event
