By Stephanie Lamie

Did you know 78% of people like to receive free items opens in new window from organizations they love? And almost 73% wish they were given promo products more often. High-end and luxurious laser-engraved gifts made with wood, metal, leather, ceramic or glass can take your brand to the next level. These laser-engraved gift ideas can help recipients associate your brand with quality and care.

Make a lasting impression

Impressions matter, so why not make yours unforgettable? Whether it’s for a new hire or client, a well-chosen welcome gift sets the tone for a great relationship. Go for something that feels personal and elevated. A bamboo phone stand instantly upgrades a recipient’s desk setup and reminds them of your brand every time they grab their phone. Include a bamboo journal for a polished pairing. Really set the tone by giving a metal pen etched with a short motivational quote. Top off their welcome package by gifting a pint glass engraved with your logo—bonus points if you slip a drinks-on-us invitation inside.

Raise the bar at events

At fundraising galas, client appreciation dinners or employee celebration events, the right details make attendees feel truly valued while creating a thoughtful experience. Set classy marble and wood coasters, engraved with the event date, donor tier, thank-you message or simply your logo, at each place setting.

Recognize celebrated guests with a small ceremony and present them with a stunning glass award. For take-home gifts, give attendees a Stanley^® tumbler with an elegant leather keychain tucked inside. Include a handwritten thank-you note that has an exclusive promo code.

Keep your brand in their hand

Sometimes the best way to stay top of mind is to stay close at hand—literally. Make an impact on decision-makers and prospects by gifting a stainless steel water bottle along with a free gym membership. Hosting a meet and greet? Set up a coffee bar and give attendees a unique cork bottom mug.

When prospects show interest or chat with team members at trade shows, leave them with a set of multi-tools as a reminder you’re here to help get them out of a pinch. Metal card holders are ideal for conference swag bags or as thank-you gifts. These polished, eye-catching and practical gifts will remind them of your brand long after the event is over.

Turn thank-yous into keepsakes

The right gift doesn’t just say “thank you”—it shows appreciation in a way that sticks. Curated kits with a few thoughtful pieces can turn gratitude into long-term goodwill. Looking to follow up on a referral or project milestone? A Carhartt^® tote is a durable yet stylish choice that’s perfect for wherever they’re going or even for organizing trunk essentials.

Include a metal-and-bamboo bottle opener engraved with a clever message, like “Glad you popped in.” Finish the set with a vacuum wine tumbler and a one-on-one lunch invitation to add a personal and memorable touch.

Leave a lasting mark

From first hellos to heartfelt thank-yous, these laser-engraved gift ideas add substance to your message. Recipients will appreciate the high-end feel of their laser-engraved gift and associate your brand with thoughtfulness and sophistication.
