Laltex Group Celebrates Six Products Shortlisted for the BPMA Product of the Year Awards
We’re proud to announce that six products from across our Bags HQ, Laltex Promo and Promo Seeds ranges have been shortlisted for the British Promotional Merchandise Association (BPMA) Product of the Year Awards.
The shortlisted products bring together practical design, thoughtful gifting and engaging growing experiences, showcasing the breadth of choice available across Laltex Group’s promotional merchandise divisions.
From bags that support busy working days to gifts that encourage recipients to take a break or get growing, each product offers a different way for businesses to connect with their audiences. Together, they demonstrate how promotional merchandise can become a useful and memorable part of everyday life.
Practical Design for Everyday Use
Two products from the Bags HQ range have been shortlisted, each offering a practical solution for keeping essentials organised on the move.
The QB0020 Hilton Essentials Tech Bag combines durable polyester with double zippers, a sturdy nylon carry handle and internal pockets for easy organisation. Whether travelling between meetings or heading into the office, it helps recipients keep their everyday essentials together.
Its useful design makes it a versatile choice for employee welcome packs, conference gifts and customer giveaways, giving brands a place in the working day.
Also shortlisted is the QB0525 Recycled Extendable Backpack, which brings together flexible storage and comfortable carrying features. Made from 600D RPET, it offers a 13-litre capacity, two zipped front pockets and a side bottle holder, alongside padded shoulder straps and a breathable padded back. The extendable design provides flexibility for different daily routines, making it well suited to staff merchandise, education campaigns and commuter promotions. For customers seeking recycled-content options, its material composition provides a clear product feature to highlight.
Thoughtful Gifts for Work and Beyond
The Laltex Promo shortlist includes two products that put everyday routines at the heart of promotional gifting.
The MS0026 Boardroom Meeting Set brings stationery, drinkware and refreshments together in one coordinated package. It includes an A5 notebook and matching pen, a square cork coaster and a classic Cambridge ceramic mug printed in vibrant full colour.
Presented in a branded medium-sized paper bag with twist paper handles, the set also contains a biscuit and hot chocolate sachet, adding a welcoming touch to a meeting or refreshment break.
With several useful items in one gift, the Boardroom Meeting Set offers a ready-made option for employee onboarding, delegate gifts and customer appreciation campaigns.
The MG3005 Baxter 550ml Insulated Food Jar offers another way to make a brand part of the daily routine. Featuring double-walled stainless-steel construction, a foldable spoon and a leak-resistant lid, it combines practical lunchtime features with a matte black finish. It is also BPA and PVC free.
Suitable for workplace wellbeing initiatives, staff gifts and travel or leisure promotions, the Baxter gives customers a gifting option built around everyday meal breaks.
Growing Ideas from Promo Seeds
Completing the shortlist are two products from Promo Seeds, each inviting recipients to take part in a hands-on growing activity.
The PS0068 Mini Bucket Grow Kit contains a Cocopress® compost tablet and a seed packet inside a coloured metal bucket with a handle. A choice of Herb, Vegetable or Flower pre-printed sleeves includes sowing instructions, while a label on the top carries the customer’s branding.
With a wide variety of seeds available, the kit can suit different campaign themes and audiences. Its interactive format makes it an engaging choice for exhibition giveaways, seasonal promotions and community initiatives, giving recipients something to take home and nurture.
The PS0101 3-in-1 Garden Trio offers a growing gift with even more to discover. Each set includes three 55mm terracotta pots, each containing a Cocopress® peat-free compost tablet and a different packet of seeds.
Customers can choose from three themes: Herb, featuring Basil, Chives and Mint; Sunflower, with Giant Sunflower, Evening Sun and Sunspot Dwarf; or Wellbeing, containing Chamomile, Evening Primrose and Lavender.
Presented in natural kraft packaging with a pre-printed sleeve and dedicated space for a full-colour logo, the Garden Trio is suited to customer gifts, exhibition follow-ups and campaigns centred on gardening or taking time for yourself.
