Custom Hand Fan Styles and Options
Choosing the right fan starts with thinking about how and where it will be used. ProImprint's selection includes several styles that can suit different promotional & personal occasions.
Corrugated hand fans are a bit more solid, making them a great choice when you need a sturdier promotional format. The firm surface of a corrugated hand fan can also double as a handheld sign, giving your logo, artwork, or event message an extra boost.
Slap your company branding, graphics, or message right on the available imprint area to create a fan that combines practical use with a strong visual presence.
Best for: Outdoor events, sports promotions, rallies, fundraisers & high-volume giveaways.
Give younger recipients something they can do while putting your brand in their hands with our kids colouring hand fans. These interactive fans bring a cooling function together with a colouring activity, making for a promotional product that offers both practical use and entertainment.
ProImprint has colouring hand fan designs in different shapes and full-colour formats, giving you the flexibility to put your custom artwork, branding,s or themed designs right on there. The combination of an interactive activity and a personalized design makes these fans a great alternative to traditional promotional giveaways.
Best for: Schools, children's events, family festivals, community programs, and educational promotions.
For a promo that is a little more modern, consider electric hand fans. Battery-powered & rechargeable models bring active airflow, making them a great fit for tech-savvy brands and professional events.
Electric promotional fans can work particularly well when you want a giveaway with a higher perceived value than a traditional paper fan.
Best for: Corporate events, trade shows, employee gifts, technology promotions and premium giveaways.
Full color hand fans give your artwork some room to breathe. Use some vibrant graphics, brand colors, photography, event artwork, or a detailed message to make the most of the fan's printable surface.
Depending on the product, full-colour fans can be printed on one or both sides. Double-sided printing can be especially useful when you want one side to focus on your brand & the other to include a website, contact info, schedule, or event message.
Best for: Brand campaigns, festivals, concerts, sporting events, trade shows, and event promotions.
When you need to give out a bunch of fans, lightweight hand fans are a great option to consider. ProImprint's lightweight styles are made from coated board stock & have a handle for easy use. Many are available in different stock shapes, so you can pick a design that fits your campaign.
Their combination of portability, printable space & economical bulk pricing makes them useful for organizations planning larger events.
Best for: Trade shows, fundraisers, corporate events, outdoor promotions, churches, and large-scale giveaways.
Stock hand fans are a good choice when you want a familiar shape or design without starting from scratch. ProImprint has a selection of stock-shaped fans that can be customized with your branding & message.
Choosing a stock shape simplifies the selection process & still gives you a distinctive promotional product.
Best for: Businesses, schools, sports organizations, and recurring promotional campaigns.
Sometimes a small portable fan is all you really need. Mini hand fans are compact, lightweight, and easy to hand out at events where portability is key. They really come in handy when you need to hand out a large batch to attendees without giving them a bulky promotional item.
They can also provide a practical way to get your logo, slogan, QR code, or even a short call to action on a small but eye-catching promotional product.
Best for: Conferences, mailers, sports events, parties, and event giveaways.
