Despite a spike in COVID-19 cases, people are still going to be traveling. It’s inevitable. Flights are still taking off and roads are still open - so people will be on the move.
Whether it’s because of family emergencies, essential work, or just visits with family and relatives, you’ll likely have some clients still hitting the roads. And now - more than ever before - safety on the go is a top concern.
So if you have customers, employees, or clients that you know are traveling, think about giving them a promotional item to help keep them safe. Consider this pre-departure safety checklist when choosing the right promotional giveaways for travelers. This will help keep your gifts sensitive and considerate, which in return will be more appreciated.
Experts have recommended travelers to make sure of the following:
- Social distance as much as possible
- Wear a mask (including at rest areas, inside gas stations)
- Wash or sanitize hands frequently (especially after touching things like gas pumps, door handles, other common surfaces)
- Pack all the essential PPE
- Avoid touching commonly touched surfaces
With the right products, travelers will be more equipped to get to their destinations safely, without spreading (or catching) any germs. Here’s a look at our top 10 promotional giveaways that are perfect for traveling clients, prospects, or consumers.
1. Hand Sanitizer Spray
Hand sanitizer is a must for keeping hands clean in public areas with lots of commonly touched surfaces. But it can be bulky carrying around a bottle when traveling. This antibacterial credit card-sized spray sanitizer is perfect for the traveler.
When selecting a hand sanitizer, remember the CDC recommends the solution to be at least 60% alcohol-based. This product - and all of our hand sanitizing products - meets this requirement.
The travel-sized “credit card” design makes it perfect for your pocket, purse, or even wallet. The sanitizer container holds .68 ounces or 20 ml of solution and is citrus scented. The best part is the customizable features. It comes in ten different colors and can be imprinted with a full-color process decal or one color direct print to spread.
2. Advanced PPE Travel Kit

3. TouchTool

Create distance between yourself and these surfaces when you open the door to the restroom or stop to get money out of the ATM.

Travelers aren’t going anywhere without their devices. Which makes wireless chargers an essential on the promotional giveaways list for travels. Even more handy, is a portable charger that can keep devices clean. This UV Clean Wireless Charger does both.
