Promotional item & Custom Gifts Printing Solutions

Industry Overview

The growth of the promotional items and custom gift industry stems from a rising preference for personalized customization, such as incorporating one's own photos or designs. Brands, wholesalers, and gift manufacturers increasingly rely on UV printing technology for its short production cycles and strong visual impact. This enables vibrant colors, strong adhesion, and rapid delivery of customized products without minimum order quantity restrictions.

Kaiou offers professional UV printing solutions for promotional items and custom gifts. We test client samples and finalize printing plans before orders are placed, providing everything from printers to cutters, heat presses, and films. Our comprehensive technical support before and after sales ensures even novice businesses or designers can operate independently and ramp up production swiftly.
