We Have BRAND News!

This is a big one and everyone here at Allen ColorCraft is so excited to share this news with you!

Allen ColorCraft® will be distributing Thermos products beginning January 2019.

"We are thrilled to enter a new partnership with this longtime trusted household brand and are confident that our customers will share our enthusiasm," said Stan W. A. Dohan, President and COO of Allen ColorCraft.

We have been crazy busy behind the scenes getting ready to introduce you to these great Thermos brand products.  Look for the Thermos product category on our website. Search Thermos on the site or go to this link from your desktop computer.  Spend some time in our booth as the 2019 show season begins - you'll want to pick up and explore the Thermos products from the handy tea hook integrated into the lid of the  Thermos Stainless King Travel Tumbler to the convenient folding spoon tucked into the Stainless King Food Jar.  And who knew Thermos makes a 64 ounce Insulated Hydration Bottle - think great big water jug - that will keep your players hydrated better and longer?

You're going to be as excited as we are when you get acquainted with Thermos products!

TRANSITION THROUGH THE SEASONS WITH DUAL USE DRINKWARE

Cicadas are calling outside my window as I write this morning. In the Midwest I've always considered the increasing levels of that sound as a harbinger of the end of summer.

As I filled a used-everyday CamelBak®  KickBak™  with my summer morning standard of ice to the top and my favorite soft drink, er, fresh healthy water, I realized that soon the mornings would start with something hot to drink. It's an easy switch with the KickBak™ because it's made for hot or cold drinks.

Dual use promotional drinkware products that work with both hot and cold beverages are becoming increasingly popular. There's no better season to share these great products with your customers than this transition time when the days begin brisk and cool yet still warm up to a toasty level. Increased opportunities for use equal increased exposure for the customer logo or message imprinted on that tumbler or bottle!

We offer a great selection of stainless steel dual use tumblers and bottles. Explore the Products tab at the top of our Home page. Check out our branded product lines for a variety of transitional items to take you and your customer through the change of seasons and activities.

RECOGNITION

National Nurses Week, May 6-12, 2017

National Nurses Week is a week dedicated to recognizing the contributions of this group of people who have - or will - impact the lives of most of us at one time or another.

This is a popular week for hospitals, clinics and management to gift their nursing staff with flowers, luncheons and gifts. Distributor should remind their healthcare industry clients of the importance of acknowledging their hard working nurses.  Custom imprinted drinkware is a gift that will be reused many times, benefiting both the giver and the recipient! Including a heartfelt message, a company logo as well as a Write On area for personalization will repeat the message many times over.

Keeping staff well by encouraging healthy hydration during long shifts is an added benefit of a quality water bottle gift.

Our CamelBak® line of bottles offers a diverse choice of high quality hydration products including durable eddy™ Tritan water bottles as well as stainless steel vacuum insulated Chute™ bottles and vacuum insulated KickBak™ tumblers for use with hot or cold beverages.

Distributors, remind your healthcare industry clients to show their nursing staff appreciation that will last all year with a reusable custom imprinted CamelBak® bottle!
