Some Popular Compendiums
Branding Your Compendium For Marketing
One important aspect of using compendiums is the type of branding available. There are several types of branding available for compendiums, each with its own unique advantages and disadvantages.
The first type of branding is screen printing, which involves transferring ink onto the surface of the compendium through a mesh stencil. Screen printing is a popular choice for branding compendiums as it is cost-effective and produces high-quality results, plus you can cover a large area of the front cover of a compendium. It is also suitable for a range of materials, including leather and vinyl.
The second type of branding is embossing or debossing, which involves creating a raised or recessed impression on the surface of the compendium. Embossing or debossing is a popular choice for leather compendiums as it creates a high-end, professional look with a very high perceived value. It is also durable and long-lasting, ensuring that the branding will remain visible for a long time.
Another type of branding available for compendiums is digital printing, which involves printing the branding directly onto the surface of the compendium using a digital printer. Digital printing is a popular choice for full-colour designs or photographic images as it can produce high-quality, detailed results. It is also a cost-effective option for smaller orders.
Lastly, laser engraving is available on either leather compendiums or ones that come with a metal badge. Engraving creates a permanent, high-contrast mark on the surface of the material. Laser engraving is also precise and can create intricate designs or text.

Spoilt For Choice With Materials
You've got plenty of options when it comes to the type of material you can choose for compendiums. The choice of material is an essential aspect when creating branded compendiums as it affects the durability, quality, appearance, and price of the final product.
You've got many options to pick from including leather compendiums which are the most popular and preferred material for compendiums due to its durability, classic look, and ability to age well. Leather compendiums come in various types, such as genuine, faux, or bonded leather, and can be dyed in different colours for larger orders. You then have PU Leather or Polyurethane (PU) leather, which is a synthetic material that looks and feels like real leather but is cheaper. It is resistant to wear and tear, water, and stains, making it ideal for outdoor and frequent use. A more affordable material is polyester or microfibre as it is lightweight, and easy to clean. Nylon is another cheaper option that is durable, water-resistant, and lightweight making them perfect for compendiums used in outdoor activities or sports events. The latest move is for compendiums to be made out of recycled materials which are perfect for environmentally conscious clients and businesses.
Best Ways To Use A Compendium
The most common reason why people order promotional compendiums in terms of volume is to give them away as attendee gifts during conferences and events.
They are perfect for business meetings as they can hold important documents such as agendas, presentations, and notes. With its many pockets and compartments, a compendium can keep everything organised and easily accessible, ensuring a smooth and professional meeting.
Conferences and Trade Shows are other settings where compendium use is essential. Attending a conference or trade show can be overwhelming with all the handouts, business cards, and brochures being distributed. A compendium is an ideal way to keep all these items organised and in one place. It can also be used to hold a notepad, calculator, and pens for taking notes during presentations or networking.
