What is the Genuine Bamboo Salad Spork?
The Genuine Bamboo Salad Spork is a serving bowl built around Sustainably grown bamboo with a natural sealed finish. It measures 12".
Bamboo is a grass, not a hardwood, that is why it regrows in a few years rather than a few decades. The practical reason it is the default choice when a program has a sustainability requirement to satisfy.
A serving piece goes on the table in front of guests, which is a different quality of impression entirely. Laser engraving burns a rich dark-brown mark into the surface. No ink, no coating, nothing to wear off.
This sits in the giveaway tier, where the job is reach: enough units to hand one to everyone who walks past the table, at a cost per impression low enough that nobody has to justify it line by line. Concretely: $3.65 each at 1-11, $2.26 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 10 in x 10 in.
Laser Engraving
A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.
Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.
Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.
UV Printing
UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
Artwork requirements
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually will not.
- Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.

Common uses
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. The recipient is rarely the decision maker you are trying to reach, which is the part most programs get wrong. Choose something that will sit in a shared space rather than a drawer, and the gift starts working on people who were never on your list. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. At this price the risk is under-ordering, not over-ordering.
Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events
Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. Names, dates and short inscriptions turn an ordinary object into something kept for decades. Quantities are modest and lead times are unforgiving, which makes production scheduling the thing to get right. An imprint area of 10 in x 10 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. Down to $2.26 at volume, which is where this stops being a cost.
Real Estate & Closing Gifts
A closing gift is a referral instrument, not a thank-you note. The gift is competing with a move, which is the least receptive moment in a person's year. Something that gets unpacked in the first week and used immediately beats something beautiful that stays in a box until the boxes are finally dealt with. Buy for coverage. The arithmetic rewards it and the budget will not notice.
Hospitality, Restaurants & Breweries
In hospitality the promotional item and the retail item are the same object. Seasonality drives the order pattern. Terraces, patios and outdoor service create demand for a different specification than winter trade does, so most venues need two lists rather than one annual order. At $3.65 before breaks it is cheap enough to hand out without counting.

What do buyers ask about GFT171?
Do you ship to multiple addresses?
Yes, through a quote. Card checkout ships one order to one address, so for a split run send the address list with a quote request and we confirm the freight for every destination in writing before you pay. The artwork is proofed once and applied across the whole run. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
Can I see a proof before you produce the order?
Always, and we do not start without written approval. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. Once approved, the proof becomes the specification for the run, so check the spelling and the placement carefully. The personalization area on GFT171 is 10 in x 10 in.
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on GFT171 is 10 in x 10 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.
How is this decorated?
We run laser engraving on GFT171 as standard. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved. We can also run UV Printing on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on GFT171 is 10 in x 10 in. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.
What artwork do you need from me?
Vector artwork is ideal (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) with all type converted to outlines. High-resolution raster at 300 dpi or better also works, and a logo saved from a website is worth sending anyway. We check it against the 10 in x 10 in personalization area and tell you before you pay whether it holds up at that size.
Can I order more later and have them match?
Yes. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. Material batches can vary slightly on natural materials, which is worth knowing if color matching across orders is critical. The published ladder on GFT171 runs from $3.65 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.26 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
How should this be cared for?
Hand wash and dry immediately. Oil occasionally if used for food service. GFT171 measures 12" and is made of bamboo. Bamboo is a grass, not a hardwood, that is why it regrows in a few years rather than a few decades.

There is no minimum beyond one piece on GFT171. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The price per piece only goes down as the quantity rises. The published ladder on GFT171 runs from $3.65 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.26 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
