Working From Home Essentials
Last month, experts predicted that the current pandemic may lead to a new dynamic of staff working from home (WFH) far more regularly.
With a growing number of teams already trading their offices for their homes, we’ve created a list of promotional products, gifts, and giveaways designed to help your team work well remotely during this period.
Desk Set-Up
Research in 2016 found that employees who worked in an environment deemed clean and clear were significantly more productive than those with cluttered desks. Although it may seem easy to turn any table into a workspace, there are a number of promotional products that can help create the perfect environment.
Desk Grips
Designed to keep your cables from getting in the way, the Stoppi and Clippi are two brilliant products for keeping your workspace clear. With an adhesive base, and silicon dividers, your team can disconnect their charging cables, headphones, or wire, without them falling to the floor. The smaller Clippi model features branding space to feature your logo or messaging.
Smart Mousemats
It doesn’t take long to realise that your mouse isn’t 100% compatible with your working surface. At Sycal, we now offer a range of mousemats that feature both branding space, as well as a wireless phone charger built into the material. With connected pen holders and tablet mounts, you can keep your desk clear and practical for your tech-focussed remote workers.

Office Audio
WFH does come with a variety of drawbacks, including the lack of face-to-face interactions with our colleagues. Fortunately, with a wide range of promotional audio products, we can help keep the communication lines loud and clear.
Headphones, Earphones, and Earpods
From cost-conscious budget options to premium brands like Philips and JBL, we offer promotional headphones to cater everyone’s needs. With in-built microphones, you can ensure that communications stays crystal clear, whilst providing a personalised gift for staff to enjoy in their downtime.
Speaker Systems
Not a headphone or earphone fan? Turn any room into a conference room, or bring life to a home office with a range of promotional speaker systems. Choose from unbranded options, or state of the art premium products.

Stationery and Notebooks
It might not be the most unique or novel promotional gift option, but bespoke stationery and notebooks still remain both extremely practical and influential product choices to put your logo on.
Notebooks
With eco-friendly and recyclable options, as well as limitless branding opportunities, there’s no wonder that notebooks are still hugely popular with a wide demographic of consumers.
If you’re looking for something more novel, the Rocketbook is a great alternative to a standard paper book. Simply write on the pages, scan them to the Cloud with an app, and wipe the page clean and use it again.
Stationery
From classic biros to eco-friendly pens made from recycled coffee grounds, there are countelss opportunities to put your logo and messaging in the hands of your customers and staff.

Staying Hydrated
Keeping hydrated has never been more important than it is now. At Sycal, we offer a wide selection of drinkware to keep your fluid level high whilst you’re working.
Bottles and Mugs
Make sure your customers are staying on top of their water intake with a variety of measuring bottles. Lined with indicators of how much water you should have consumed, these promotional tools are cost-effective and can be branded with your company’s logo or messaging.
When it comes to mugs, there are almost unlimited branding opportunities. Pantone match the inside, outside, base, or handle. Print in one colour, or in a full colour wrap across the entire mug. The posibilities are endless, and a perfect desk gift for employees.
Something Different?
If you’re stuck at home and missing a good cup of coffee, we can now supply a range of Nespresso machines. Small in size but delivering uncompromising pleasure.
