CORKO cork and metal ballpoint pen

CORKO cork and metal ballpoint pen – laser engraved with your logo

This is a cork and metal ballpoint pen. It combines a tactile cork barrel with metal fittings to give a natural, modern feel that works well as a branded giveaway or corporate gift. When printed with your logo it reinforces an eco-conscious, tactile image and sits well on reception desks, at trade shows or in press packs. We can advise on the best placement and finish to make your branding stand out on both the pen and its cork gift pouch.

Practical details and build

The pen features a cork barrel with metal components and a twist mechanism, supplied with blue ink. It measures ø11 x 137 mm and comes in a cork gift pouch sized 155 x 40 mm. The cork gives a warm, slightly textured grip while the metal parts add weight and durability. As cork is a natural material, individual items may show slight colour and grain variations which contribute to their character.

Branding guidance and decoration

Branding is best achieved by laser engraving on the cork barrel and on the pouch; laser is a single-colour process that produces a subtle, permanent mark on cork. The smooth metal areas can also accept engraving, though results will differ from cork. We can advise on logo placement to ensure legibility on curved surfaces and suggest artwork adjustments for small text or fine detail. Please provide your logo files and we will recommend the most effective layout.
