Custom desk calendars are an exceptional marketing tool and practical corporate gift, ensuring your brand remains visible on your clients’ desks for an entire year. These calendars are professionally printed using high-definition drop-on-demand digital inkjet or offset lithographic printing for crisp text and vibrant imagery. They feature a durable, Wiro Boundconstruction and are mounted onto a sturdy 500mic box board strut card base for reliable free-standing stability.

The base product offers flexibility in size, including DL (99mm x 210mm) Portrait, A5, and a square 148mm x 148mm format. You can choose from various paper stocks like 150gsm Silk up to 250gsm Silk, or 170gsm to 250gsm Uncoated. The typical configuration is a 13 Page Single Sided Calendar (13 sheets, including the base) or a 7 Page Double Sided Calendar (7 sheets printed both sides), providing a page for every month plus a cover.

Branded Desk Calendars: A Year-Long Marketing Tool

 

Desk calendars are a remarkably effective and highly practical tool for keeping your brand in front of clients every single day of the year. Functioning as both a necessary organizational aid and a clever marketing piece, a custom-designed desk calendar ensures your business stays visible and top-of-mind, long after other promotional gifts have been forgotten.

These calendars are built for durability and professional presentation. Each one is securely Wiro Bound (wire bound) along the top edge, allowing for smooth, easy flipping through the months. Crucially, the calendar is mounted onto a sturdy 500mic box board strut card base. This heavyweight base provides excellent stability, allowing the calendar to stand freely and reliably on any desk, counter, or shelf without risk of collapse.

Customization options allow for a perfect fit for any corporate aesthetic. You can select from popular and functional finished sizes, including the compact DL Portrait (99mm x 210mm), the more traditional A5, or a visually appealing 148mm x 148mm square format.

The quality of the calendar pages themselves is supported by a wide choice of paper stocks and configurations. For the pages, you can choose from a range of weights in either Silk stock (for a smooth, elegant finish that makes colours vivid) or Uncoated stock (for a tactile, traditional feel suitable for writing notes). Weights typically range from 150gsm up to 250gsm.

You have flexibility in how the calendar pages are structured. The most common options are the 13 Page Single Sided Calendar, which includes a cover page and a page dedicated to each month, or the more economical 7 Page Double Sided Calendar, where each sheet features two months back-to-back. All artwork, whether featuring promotional messages, professional photography, or essential dates, is reproduced using high-definition digital inkjet or offset lithographic printing, guaranteeing sharp text and smooth gradients across every month.

Investing in branded desk calendars is an investment in sustained brand presence, providing recipients with genuine utility that keeps your corporate message at the heart of their daily workspace.

File Format

File format must be either PNG or PDF.

Artwork Size & Ratio

Artwork must be sized to the banner size required or an equivalent ratio (e.g., 2:1). This is to limit any resizing of your banner, which could lead to stretching and pixelation.

Resolution

The ideal resolution of the artwork will be greater than 150dpi, but a lower resolution may be acceptable. We will double-check this for you before it goes to print.

Purchasing Multiple Items in One Order

If you are supplying multiple files for an order, please email us with a breakdown. This needs to include your order number and a description of which files are for which product. Where necessary, please specify quantities.
