# Corporate Gift Printing in Dubai

Sun Studio prints **corporate gifts** that you or your gift supplier provide, at our studio in Al Quoz, Dubai, for companies across the UAE: Arabic coffee (qahwa) cups, bottles and tumblers, candles, notebooks and leather goods, boxes and awards. There is no minimum order, and every piece can carry a different name. We are a printing studio, not a gift catalogue: most clients and gifting companies send their own items. The branding goes onto the item itself in full colour, rather than onto a sticker or an engraved plate.

Most of this work is deadline-driven: Ramadan and Eid gifting, National Day, conferences and exhibitions, client gifts and staff recognition, and event favours where every piece carries a different name.

## What we can print

Gifting is defined by the occasion rather than the material, so a single order often spans several materials. If you are still choosing what to give, start with our overview of [corporate gifting in the UAE](https://www.sunstudio.ae/insights/corporate-gifting-uae-qahwa-cups-candles-perfume/).

What clients send us to print:

- **Qahwa cups and saucers**: the Gulf gifting staple, printed in full colour. See our guide to [custom qahwa cups](https://www.sunstudio.ae/insights/custom-qahwa-cups-dubai/).
- **Bottles, tumblers and drinkware**: glass, stainless and aluminium. Our guide to [custom water bottles, tumblers and flasks](https://www.sunstudio.ae/insights/custom-water-bottles-tumblers-flasks-dubai/) has the detail.
- **Notebooks and leather goods**: covers, folders and diaries.
- **Candles and home fragrance**: branded or personalised vessels, covered on our [candle and jar printing](https://www.sunstudio.ae/services/candle-jar-printing-dubai/) page.
- **Glassware and desk pieces**: paperweights and display items. Trophies and plaques have their own page: [crystal and awards printing](https://www.sunstudio.ae/services/crystal-awards-printing-dubai/).
- **Boxes and packaging**: so the gift and its box match.
- **Mixed sets**: several different items branded consistently as one gift.
- **Edible gifts**: chocolate, macarons and cookies are a separate service on dedicated food printers. See [food printing in Dubai](https://www.sunstudio.ae/services/food-printing-dubai/).

## Printing capabilities

The two things gifting needs most are full colour and the freedom to make every piece different:

- **Direct UV printing**: onto the item itself, in full colour.
- **Personalisation**: a different name on every piece at no extra setup, because there is no screen or plate.
- **360° printing**: a full wrap with no seam on cups, bottles and tumblers.
- **White ink**: so brand colours hold on clear, dark or metallic items.
- **Arabic calligraphy and fine detail**: printed at the resolution it deserves.
- **Raised and textured effects**: a logo that can be felt, which reads as considered on a gift.
- **Short runs and mixed sets**: fifty of one thing, or five of ten things.

## Direct printing or engraving and stickers

Corporate gifts are usually branded one of three ways, and the choice shows in the hand.

### Engraving and etching

Laser engraving removes material to leave a mark. It is durable and it suits a single-colour logo on metal or wood.

The limit is colour: an engraved mark is the colour of the material underneath, so a brand with a specific colour, a gradient or more than one ink is out of reach.

### Direct UV printing

Ink is laid onto the item in full colour and cured. Brand colours are reproduced as colours, gradients and photographs are possible, and Arabic calligraphy prints exactly as drawn.

Because there is no screen or plate, changing the artwork between pieces adds no setup cost, which is what makes name-by-name personalisation practical on a run of two hundred. Applied stickers do colour too, but a sticker is the thing a recipient peels off.

## Who this is for

Gifting work comes from:

- **Corporate marketing and HR teams**: client gifts, staff recognition and onboarding sets.
- **Gifting and promotional companies**: who source the items and use us for the branding.
- **Event and conference organisers**: delegate gifts and speaker pieces.
- **Banks, developers and government entities**: Ramadan, Eid and National Day gifting.
- **Hotels and hospitality**: guest and VIP gifts.
- **Wedding planners**: favours personalised for every guest.

## What to send before we can quote

Gifting is scheduling as much as printing, so lead with the date:

- **The deadline**: the date the gifts have to be in hand, not the date they leave us.
- **The items**: what they are, who is supplying them and when they will reach us.
- **Quantity**, and whether pieces are identical or personalised.
- **Photos or samples** of the items.
- **Artwork**: logo as vector, plus any Arabic wording.
- **The name list** if pieces are personalised, in the exact spelling required.
- **Whether boxes or packaging** are part of the job.
- **Where they are being delivered**.

## How it works

**Step 1**

Send

The deadline, the items, the quantity and the artwork.

**Step 2**

Review

We confirm what each item needs, whether anything requires testing, and whether the date is realistic.

**Step 3**

Sample

One piece of each item is printed and approved before the run.

**Step 4**

Produce

The order is printed, checked, packed and ready for the date.

## Technical considerations

A gifting order is rarely one material. A single set might contain a glass cup, a stainless bottle, a leather notebook and a coated box: four different adhesion problems arriving as one job with one deadline.

What that means in practice:

### Every material is its own job

Glass, metal, leather and coated board each behave differently, and a set is only as good as its weakest item.

### Sample every item type

Sample one piece of every item type, not just one piece from the order. This is where mixed sets go wrong.

### Low-energy plastics

Many promotional items are polypropylene, which needs pre-treatment before the ink will hold. Tell us the plastic if you know it.

### Coatings

Powder-coated bottles and lacquered items are prints onto that coating, and coating quality varies between suppliers.

### Use in the hand

A gift is handled, carried and washed. Drinkware in particular is worth testing against how it will actually be cleaned.

### Personalisation accuracy

A misspelled name on a gift is worse than no name. Name lists are printed exactly as supplied, so send them in final form.

### Lead time

Seasonal gifting collides with everyone else’s seasonal gifting, so Ramadan and National Day work should start earlier than feels necessary. Our guide to [Ramadan and Eid corporate gifts in the UAE](https://www.sunstudio.ae/insights/ramadan-eid-corporate-gifts-uae/) covers when to start.

## Common questions

### Do you supply the gift items, or print on items we send?

Most jobs are printed on items you send. You, your gifting company or your supplier provide the pieces, and we print them from one piece upward, with a different name on each if you want. We do not keep a catalogue or stock. If you would rather we sourced the items, tell us what you are looking for and the quantity, and we will say whether we can.

### What corporate gifts can you print?

Most rigid items that lie flat on a flatbed or turn on a cylindrical press: qahwa cups and saucers, bottles and tumblers, candle jars, notebooks and leather covers, glassware, awards, desk pieces and their boxes. Send a photo if you are unsure. Some plastics need pre-treatment, and coated or textured items are tested first.

### Can every gift have a different name?

Yes. There is no screen or plate, so personalising each piece adds no setup cost. Send the name list in its final spelling, in English, Arabic or both, because it is printed exactly as supplied.

### Is there a minimum order for printed corporate gifts?

No. There is no screen or plate to make, so there is no minimum order. We print a single piece as a sample, a handful of gifts for a board, or a full staff run. Quantity changes the price per piece, not whether we take the job.

### Do you print gifts for companies outside Dubai?

Yes. The studio is in Al Quoz, Dubai, and we serve all seven emirates. Orders for the wider GCC travel by courier. Tell us where the gifts have to arrive and the date they must be in hand, so that transport time is counted inside the schedule and not added after it.

### How long does a gifting order take?

There is no standard figure. It depends on the items, the quantity and how much testing is needed, and we quote the timing once the samples are approved. Seasonal work should start earlier than feels necessary, because Ramadan, Eid and National Day compress everyone into the same weeks. Send the deadline first and we will tell you if it is realistic.

### Will the branding survive washing?

On drinkware, it depends on the item and the cycle, so we test rather than promise. Tell us the gift will be washed and we will print a sample and check it before the run.

### Can you print the gift boxes too?

Where the box is a rigid, printable material, yes, so the gift and its packaging match. Send the box with the item, because coated board is tested for adhesion like any other surface.
