Exhibition giveaways
people actually want.
Give them water. Put your brand in their hands. Turn cans of free spring water into useful, mobile advertising for your next exhibition or trade show.
Looking for exhibition giveaway ideas?
Exhibitors spend thousands competing for attention with promotional merchandise, leaflets, tote bags and branded gifts. But the best exhibition giveaways are the ones attendees genuinely want at the moment they receive them.
Give Them Something They Need
Exhibition halls are busy, warm and tiring. Attendees need water anyway. Give it to them for free and turn that useful moment into an interaction with your brand.
Your Brand Leaves the Stand
Your exhibition stand stays in one place. Your branded cans do not. Attendees can carry them across the exhibition floor, into meetings, networking areas and hospitality spaces.
More Than a Logo
Add QR codes, campaign messages, competitions or calls to action directly to the can and turn a physical exhibition giveaway into a digital campaign touchpoint.
Instead of Another Promotional Freebie...
Pens, keyrings, notebooks, tote bags and other exhibition merchandise can work — but attendees are often handed dozens of promotional items during the same event.
Branded spring water creates a different kind of giveaway: something useful, consumable and relevant to the environment people are already in.
Turn Water Into Advertising
Your artwork is applied directly to cans of spring water, transforming something attendees already need into a physical advertising medium.
Hand the cans out from your exhibition stand, meeting area, activation space or other permitted distribution point.
How Branded Exhibition Giveaways Work
From artwork to distribution, the idea is deliberately simple.
Create Your Can
Send us your logo, campaign artwork and message. Your cans can be designed around your brand, exhibition campaign or activation.
We Produce the Water
Your branded spring water is produced in recyclable aluminium cans ready for your exhibition, conference or trade show.
Put Your Brand in Their Hands
Give the cans to attendees for free and turn refreshment into a useful physical interaction with your brand.
Turn Your Exhibition Giveaway Into an Interaction
Add a QR code directly to your branded cans and send visitors to a landing page, product page, competition, booking form, social channel or exhibition campaign.
This allows your physical giveaway to continue the conversation digitally after somebody picks it up.
Give People a Reason to Scan
Selected campaigns can incorporate unique promotional codes, prize mechanics and gamification to encourage interaction.
Instead of simply putting a website address on promotional merchandise, the can can become part of the campaign itself.
A different kind of exhibition giveaway.
Useful to attendees. Visible for your brand. Connected to digital engagement and wider social impact.
