Corporate Gifts: Personalized Artworks for Your Clients or Employees

Companies often choose original gifts for their employees or clients in order to increase brand recognition and personal relationships with them. However, nowadays more and more companies want to differentiate themselves from their competitors by offering personalized gifts where originality and exclusivity are key in the selection process.

Currently, technological or ecological gifts are gaining popularity, but there are others that can create a greater impact in what is intended to be conveyed, such as offering a piece of art. For example, within the textile world, where art and design are combined, authentic and exclusive works of art can be created using luxury materials such as pure natural silk.

In addition, there is an additional component that is very relevant today when choosing personalized gifts, such as ecology, which aims to project an image of a sustainable company committed to the environment. These ecological gifts are usually made with eco-friendly materials and aim to minimize environmental impact. By combining art, design, and sustainability in an exclusive gift, the deepest values of a company can be reflected, causing a great impact on the visibility and recognition of your company.

• How Long Does it Take to Develop and Produce an Original Corporate Gift with Applied Technology and Art?

The time required to think, develop, and produce a personalized corporate gift with applied technology and art can vary significantly depending on the complexity of the project and the number of units required.

Firstly, time should be dedicated to thinking and planning the concept of the gift, which involves deciding on the type of art to be used, selecting the product, and establishing the design. It could be a painting, graphic design, etc.

Once the concept is defined, the development stage proceeds, where a prototype of the gift is created, and the necessary tests are carried out to ensure its functionality and quality.

Finally, in the production stage, the required units are manufactured with the brand logo, and the necessary adjustments are made to achieve the desired final finish.

This process can vary in duration, depending on the complexity of the design and the quantity of units to be produced. In general, the production process can take from a few weeks to several months, depending on the type of gift and the desired gift-giving dates, especially during Christmas.

Therefore, it is important to plan ahead and work with trusted suppliers like Martsen Studio to ensure that established deadlines are met and a high-quality product is obtained. At Martsen Studio, the production of custom-made artworks combined with technology for production can be achieved within 6 to 8 weeks.
