Case Study

3D PVC Keychains for a Souvenir Range

A souvenir retail buyer building a destination range

3D PVC bottle shaped keychain with moulded relief

Client Background

A souvenir retail buyer building a destination range. Client names are not published, so the customer is described by sector rather than named.

Project Challenge

The buyer wanted keychains that read as the destination from two metres away on a rotating display, in a range that could be extended design by design.

Customer Pain Points

Our Solution

Each design was moulded in soft PVC at 50 mm with 3D relief, using one tooling family and one colour standard so later additions match the originals.

Supply Chain and Quality Control

Artwork, tooling, enamel or moulding, plating and assembly all run in the same plant, so there is one approval chain rather than several. The approved physical sample is the quality reference for the production run, and colour match, plating coverage, edge finish and fitting strength are checked before packing.

Packing is normally 100 to 1000 pieces per PP bag or small box, with custom packing available. For improper production the order is remade or refunded.

Final Result

A moulded 50 mm keychain range that can be extended one design at a time without a fixed minimum order quantity.

Customer Benefit

The range grew as the season went on instead of being committed up front.
