Grill and relax
What is a duck doing at the barbecue and why is it wearing an apron?
Why should you still rely on haptic promotional gifts in times of tight budgets and ever-growing digitalisation?
Because they work!
Statistics and surveys from Germany show that 90% of the surveyed companies have already used promotional products and that haptic promotional products are appreciated as giveaways
Values can still be conveyed most strongly through personal gestures and small gifts. Haptics play a major role in this. Things we touch, we understand. Our likeable promotional items create a physical connection between the customer and your brand or your company that cannot be achieved through digital or print advertising. Touch facilitates the storage of information and creates closeness in the process. Ideal conditions for a successful positioning of your company. The likeable products from mbw® make it into the hearts of the recipients.
This gives them a lasting presence in the customer's life, which leads to a greater reach and a positive attitude towards the brand.
Studies show that 88% of customers who have received a promotional gift perceive the company more positively and 85% have already contacted a company once because of a haptic promotional item.
Expand your product range with original gift items on trendy themes and make your customers, employees or partners' eyes sparkle.

The strengths of haptic promotional products
A Bear for Farewell – with Heart, Message and Impact
It was Frieda’s last day of rehabilitation in Bad Neustadt. The sun was shining, and the mood was relaxed. As a farewell gift, not only Frieda but every patient received a lovingly designed MiniFeet® teddy bear with the clinic’s logo on its T-shirt.
A heartfelt gesture that stays in mind – and continues to have an impact long after the stay. At home, the little companion reminds Frieda of the positive time she spent there, brings comfort and puts a smile on her face.
A cuddly toy can be more than just a gift – it becomes an emotional brand ambassador.
Rehab clinics, hospitals and care facilities are increasingly using this positive effect to stay present in a warm and memorable way.
A Summer Full of Joy – with a Duck That Leaves an Impression
Lisa could hardly believe her eyes when she stepped into her parents’ garden on a sunny day: a brand-new pool was waiting – ready for splashing and cooling off. But the real highlight was floating in the water – a giant squeaky duck featuring the logo of the pool manufacturer Koohei.
It instantly became Lisa’s favourite swimming buddy – and a charming brand ambassador. Because what kids love, sticks in the minds of their parents. The oversized duck draws attention, sparks conversations, and brings the brand playfully into family life.
Koohei proves: promotional products with charm create real brand experiences.
And in winter? The duck moves into Lisa’s room – and stays a lasting memory.
Visible and Safe – A Day to Remember
It was a very special day for Hanna: her cycling proficiency test. She had practised for weeks – and proudly passed. As a reward, Officer Meier handed out not only certificates, but also a small gift with big impact: two reflectors with the logo of the local police department.
The children were thrilled – and now safer on the road, especially in the dark. At the same time, the Neustadt police left a positive and lasting impression as a reliable community partner.
A great example of how well-chosen promotional products attract attention and offer real added value.
Fire brigades, emergency services and rescue teams also use such friendly giveaways – for example at community events or school safety days.
Rubber Ducks on Duty – How TopBau Wins Hearts
Lukas is a heating technician at TopBau and on the road almost every day – even on weekends. Personal contact with his customers is important to him. That’s why he always brings along a small but memorable gift: a rubber duck bearing the company’s logo.
Whether holding a screwdriver, trowel or drill – each duck is a little original that brings a smile to bathrooms, workshops or office desks.
“Some customers call me just to ask for a new duck,” Lukas says with a grin.
The ducks have quickly become popular collectibles – and true brand ambassadors for TopBau.
A great example of how creative promotional items boost brand visibility and create authentic customer connections.
Calling All Grill Fans – BBQ Ducks as a Retail Hit
Reiner Thordsen has been running a successful grocery store in Wanderup for years – and he knows exactly what his customers want.
“Wine or flowers as a gift? That just felt too ordinary,” he says. Looking for a more original impulse buy, he discovered the BBQ ducks from mbw® – with great success.
Whether roofers, tax advisors or lawyers – many of his customers share one thing: a passion for barbecuing.
“The ducks are a perfect fit for the grilling season. The included display stand really catches the eye – and the margin is great from a retailer’s perspective,” Thordsen explains.
By now, the ducks have become real collector’s items. Demand is growing – and reorders are already on the way.
A perfect example of how charming products can drive sales while building brand loyalty.
Investing with a Smile – Promotional Products That Truly Connect
Family Bank has relied on high-quality promotional items from mbw® for years. Whether as giveaways at trade fairs, welcome gifts for new employees, or as part of a loan signing – these charming items have become a well-established part of their customer communication.
“Our clients are always delighted by these little surprises,” says Sylvia Bahnsen. Particularly popular: the custom-branded SQUEEZIES® stress figures, which often end up in a prominent spot on desks or living room shelves.
A true recipe for success: customer engagement through humour, quality, and lasting impact.
The brand stays visible – and gets recommended. Family Bank shows how modern customer loyalty can be built with creativity and heart.
