What is the Single Pen & Pencil Velvet Sleeve?

A working sleeve. Quality materials selected for decoration and everyday durability. It measures 6 1/4" x 1 1/8".

Built to survive real use rather than a single event, that is what separates a promotional item that keeps working from one that ends up in a drawer. That is the difference between something kept and something replaced.

It protects something the owner paid real money for, so it is kept as long as the device lasts. Decoration method is matched to the substrate so the mark is permanent rather than printed on top.

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: $0.96 each at 1-11, $0.60 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 3 in x 0.56 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.

Best for

Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.

Color

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.

Best for

Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.

Color

Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.

Artwork requirements

  • Outline your fonts before sending. It removes the most common cause of a proof coming back wrong.
  • Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
  • Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
  • Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
  • Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.

Common uses

Device and equipment protectionA natural fit for device and equipment protection, which is one of the settings this sleeve was specified for.
Field and travel kitsBuilt for field and travel kits. That is the use case the format was designed around, not one retrofitted to it.
Onboarding packagesSpecified regularly for onboarding packages. The imprint area at 3 in x 0.56 in is sized for exactly that job.
Fundraising and donor recognitionThanking the people who gave, in a form that quietly encourages the next person to.
Event and conference giftingHanded to qualified conversations rather than to everyone, so the spend goes where the pipeline is.
Service anniversariesFive, ten and twenty years. The object marks the span in a way a announcement never manages.
Remote team welcome kitsShipped to a home address, which for a distributed team is the only physical touch the company gets.
Recruiting and onboardingIncluded in offer packs and first-day kits, where the object is doing culture work from the very first hour.

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.

1

Onboarding & New Hire Kits

Day one sets the tone for everything after it. A welcome kit waiting on a desk, or arriving at a home address before a remote start, is the cheapest culture signal an employer can buy. Items that get used daily do the most work here, because they keep signalling belonging long after week one. An imprint area of 3 in x 0.56 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. Order deep. At this price the waste of a few extra is cheaper than running short.

2

Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation

Client gifting has one job: to be kept. Timing beats budget in this segment. The same gift sent a week after a renewal lands completely differently from one sent in December with four hundred others, because in January it is the only thing on the desk. Buy for the calendar you control rather than the one everybody shares. Volume is the point at $0.96; nobody is auditing this line item.

3

Construction, Trades & Field Services

On a job site, an item survives or it disappears. The item has to survive a truck bed in July and a tailgate in January. Thermal performance and impact resistance are the specification; everything else in this segment is decoration on top of that. Cost per impression is the number that matters here, and it is very low.

4

Technology, SaaS & Startups

Distributed teams have no office to carry the culture, so the objects have to. Shipping a considered kit to a home address is now a standard part of remote onboarding, and it is the rare marketing spend that shows up in retention numbers. Ship-safe materials matter more here than in any other segment. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. Cheap enough to over-order slightly, which is the right call for a table.

What do buyers ask about CS104?

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 CS104 runs from $0.96 a piece at 1-11 down to $0.60 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

What does it actually cost at quantity?

Most orders land near 48-95, which prices at $0.77 a piece. The published ladder on CS104 runs from $0.96 a piece at 1-11 down to $0.60 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.

How is this decorated?

Laser Engraving is the primary method on CS104. A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. 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 CS104 is 3 in x 0.56 in.

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 CS104 runs from $0.96 a piece at 1-11 down to $0.60 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

How should this be cared for?

Wipe clean with a soft damp cloth. CS104 measures 6 1/4" x 1 1/8". Built to survive real use rather than a single event, that is what separates a promotional item that keeps working from one that ends up in a drawer.

Do you keep this item in stock?

Yes. The warehouse shows more than 1,000 of CS104 in stock as of the last hourly sync. If a color is short we say so the day you order rather than the week before the deadline. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.

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.

What is the minimum order for CS104?

CS104 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on CS104 runs from $0.96 a piece at 1-11 down to $0.60 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on CS104 is 3 in x 0.56 in.
