What is the Red Small Silicone Straw?
Catalogued as SST236, this straw set sits in the part of the range that gets re-ordered rather than tried once. It measures 10"x 5/16" diameter. This is the red colorway.
Silicone grips, insulates and survives temperature extremes without hardening or cracking..
Reusable straws are a low-cost add-on that upgrades a drinkware gift into a set. On this substrate specifically: debossed moulding and pad printing are the practical decoration routes.
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: $3.30 each at 1-11, $2.05 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 5 in x 5 in.
Pad Printing
A silicone pad lifts ink from an etched plate and transfers it to the product. Clean printing on curved and irregular surfaces.
Pens, plastics and small compound-curved items.
Spot colors.
Debossed Mold
The logo is formed into the mold itself. The mark is part of the product, not applied to it.
Silicone goods on larger runs.
Product color.
Artwork requirements
- If the logo is only available as a bitmap, we need it at 300 dpi or better at final size, ideally on a transparent background.
- Do not spend a week hunting for the perfect file. Send what exists and we will tell you what is usable.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
- Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
- Send the file you have, even if it is imperfect. We will tell you honestly whether it will hold up and redraw it if it will not.
- Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.

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.
Hospitality, Restaurants & Breweries
In hospitality the promotional item and the retail item are the same object. Breakage and theft are line items, not accidents. Popular branded glassware walks out of a venue at a predictable rate, and the sensible response is to price it for retail rather than to fight it. The straw set format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. 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. Guests keep what they can use and discard what merely commemorates. An item that works on an ordinary Tuesday will outlive the event by years; one that only makes sense on the day will not survive the drive home. Down to $2.05 at volume, which is where this stops being a cost.
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. A gift that lands on a client desk and stays there keeps working long after the meeting that prompted it. That argues for fewer, better pieces rather than a large volume of disposables, and for decoration that will still look intentional in two years. Silicone grips, insulates and survives temperature extremes without hardening or cracking.. Buy for coverage. The arithmetic rewards it and the budget will not notice.

What do buyers ask about SST236?
Can you work to a fixed in-hand date?
Yes. Give us the in-hand date and checkout tells you immediately whether standard production makes it. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
How should this be cared for?
Dishwasher safe. SST236 measures 10"x 5/16" diameter and is made of silicone. Silicone grips, insulates and survives temperature extremes without hardening or cracking. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file.
Is there a setup charge?
No. Setup is free on every order at every quantity. Art preparation, machine setup and your digital proof are built into the price, with nothing added for them later. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.
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 5 in x 5 in personalization area and tell you before you pay whether it holds up at that size.
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. SST236 sells from a single unit at $3.30, the first rung of its published ladder, so a sample is simply a normal order. A decorated single piece goes through the same proof as a full run.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on SST236 runs from $3.30 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.05 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
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 SST236 is 5 in x 5 in.
What is the minimum order for SST236?
SST236 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on SST236 runs from $3.30 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.05 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on SST236 is 5 in x 5 in.
