Custom desk accessories: what they cost and which to choose
A desk accessory with your logo costs from CHF 2.50 per unit, with printing included. A badge holder for a conference, a pen pot for the whole team and an executive desk gift do not need the same budget, look or branding method. Here you can see today’s prices, real examples by use case and the details worth checking before you order custom desk accessories.
How much does a custom desk accessory cost?

For events, conferences and giveaways
When you need something light and easy to hand out, simple accessories such as badge holders, bookmarks or branded rulers are a good fit. In this range, the priority is unit cost and a clear front area for pad printing or UV digital print, so the logo stands out without making the item look busy.
On small items, the logo is easier to read on its own, without a slogan, and centred on the visible side. If it is for accreditation use, order the badge holder together with the lanyard so everything arrives coordinated and in the same brand colour.

For something that stays on the desk, daily use matters more than first impact. This is where pen pots, organisers, memo holders or reading lights work well, with more branding space and materials such as wood, bamboo, plastic or metal, depending on the office style.
Always check the material before choosing the logo finish: on wood and bamboo, engraving appears in the tone of the item itself, while on plastic or painted metal, colour comes from pad printing or UV. If you choose a custom pen holder, add pens or pencils to the same order.

When the item will stay in an office and be seen every day, the overall look matters more. The premium range includes better-finished accessories, weather stations, stands and pieces in bamboo or wood, where the logo can be discreet and well integrated.
Avoid trying to fit too much messaging into a small area: for desk items, a clean logo without a slogan works better on the front or the base. If you want to create a complete gift, pair it with a notebook or a diary in the same style.
