Custom Pens in Dubai — Branded, Printed and Engraved Pens for Every Budget
Custom pens are writing instruments printed or engraved with a company logo, name or message. We Five Advertising supplies branded pens across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and the rest of the UAE — plastic promotional pens for large campaigns, metal executive pens for corporate gifts — with delivery in 4–7 working days.
A pen is the one promotional gift people actually keep. It sits in a drawer, a bag or a hotel notepad holder and gets picked up hundreds of times, which is why personalised pens still deliver one of the lowest costs per impression in promotional advertising.
Order 1,000 printed plastic pens for a trade show and your logo travels home with 1,000 visitors. Hand an engraved metal pen to a client at a contract signing and the same idea works at the opposite end of the scale — quieter, heavier, and far more personal.

A few things that keep your order moving without back-and-forth delays:
- Send vector files (AI, EPS, or PDF) instead of flattened images
- If using raster logos, keep them at 300 DPI or higher
- Print-ready files move through production faster than drafts
- Keep a 3–5 mm bleed on anything running to the edge
- Convert text to outlines so fonts don’t shift between systems
- Work in CMYK, not RGB, for accurate print colour
- Leave a safe margin — nothing critical right at the edge
- Embed or attach any linked fonts and images
- Flag exact Pantone codes if colour matching is critical

Types of Custom Pens We Supply
We supply eight main categories of custom pens: plastic promotional pens, metal executive pens, ballpoint pens, gel and rollerball pens, fountain pens, stylus and multi-function pens, eco-friendly recycled pens, and pen gift sets. Each type suits a different budget, branding method and audience, and all can be printed or engraved with your logo.
Custom Plastic Pens
Printed plastic pens are the workhorse of promotional marketing — light, cheap in bulk and available in almost any barrel colour. They are the standard choice for exhibition giveaways, conference bags, retail counters and mass mailers. Pad printing puts a crisp one- or two-colour logo on the barrel or clip; full-colour UV printing handles gradients and photographs. Choose a soft-touch rubberised finish if you want a plastic pen that feels more expensive than it costs. Popular with clients ordering cheap custom pens in volume, where unit price matters more than weight in the hand.
Custom Metal Pens
Personalised metal pens are for the gifts that need to feel like gifts. Brass and aluminium barrels with chrome, matte black, gunmetal, rose gold or brushed satin finishes give the pen real weight — usually 20–35 g compared with 8–12 g for a plastic barrel. Laser engraving is the natural pairing here: it burns through the coloured coating to expose the metal underneath, leaving a permanent silver or gold-toned mark that will not chip, peel or wash off. Ideal for executive gifts, board meetings, VIP delegates and long-service awards. Custom metal pens can also be printed if you need an exact brand colour rather than an engraved tone.
Custom Ballpoint Pens
Customised ball point pens use an oil-based ink that dries fast, resists smudging and survives UAE heat in a car or a bag far better than water-based inks. This is the safest choice for giveaway pens because the ink stays usable for years and the writing does not bleed through thin notepad paper. Available in plastic and metal barrels, retractable (click) or capped, with blue, black or red refills. Ballpoint refills also cost the least to replace, which matters for hotels and offices restocking the same pen repeatedly.
Gel and Rollerball Pens
Gel and rollerball pens write with almost no pressure, producing a darker, smoother line than a ballpoint. They suit brands that want the writing experience itself to feel premium — law firms, clinics, design studios, hospitality. The trade-off is ink consumption: a gel refill empties faster than a ballpoint. Gel ink pens are covered by ISO 27668-1, which sets out the test methods for writing performance and cap safety on this pen type.
Custom Fountain Pens
Custom fountain pens are the top tier of corporate gifting — nib-based writing instruments, usually in a lacquered or metal body, presented in a rigid gift box. They are ordered in small quantities (often 10–100 pieces) for retirements, partner gifts, government protocol gifts and board-level presentations. Branding is normally a discreet laser engraving on the cap band or barrel rather than a large printed logo, so the pen reads as a personal gift first and a branded item second.
Stylus and Multi-Function Pens
A stylus pen combines a writing tip with a conductive tip for touchscreens; multi-function models add a second ink colour, a mechanical pencil, an LED torch, a screwdriver bit or a phone stand. These are popular with IT companies, logistics firms and any business whose staff or customers work on tablets. The larger barrel also gives you more print area for a longer company name or a website URL.
Eco-Friendly and Recycled Pens
Eco pens are made from recycled PET, recycled paper barrels, bamboo, wheat straw or corn-starch bioplastic. UAE sustainability procurement policies and single-use plastic rules have pushed many organisations towards them, and they photograph well for CSR reporting. Bamboo and wooden barrels can be laser engraved, which produces a dark burn mark against the light grain — a look that printed ink cannot reproduce.
Pen Gift Sets, Pens and Pencils, and Pen and Notebook Combos
Branded pens and notebooks sold as one set lift the perceived value of the gift without much extra cost. Standard combinations include a pen and mechanical pencil in a metal box, a pen with an A5 PU-leather notebook, or a three-piece set with a keychain or USB drive. We can brand every item in the set with the same logo and finish so the pieces look like one product rather than three items packed together.
Who Orders Branded Pens From Us
- Corporate offices and SMEs
Pens for reception desks, meeting rooms, welcome kits and client folders. Most run two lines: printed plastic for volume, boxed metal for clients — often bundled into one corporate gift delivery. - Exhibitions and events
GITEX, Gulfood, Big 5 and ADNEC stands need thousands that last past day two. Book 3–4 weeks ahead; our 4–7 working day turnaround covers late additions. - Schools and universities
Orientation packs, exam kits, open days and alumni events — high volume, tight budgets, so plastic ballpoints in school colours with a printed crest. Vented-cap models available for younger students (ISO 11540). - Government and semi-government
Summits, majlis events, delegate folders and internal recognition, usually with an Arabic and English logo lockup and matched packaging. Written spec provided for your purchase order or tender file. - Hotels, hospitality and healthcare
Slim ballpoints for guest rooms, banqueting and conference desks, with batch-to-batch consistency on repeat orders. Wipeable plastic barrels for clinic and pharmacy counters.
Why Companies Choose We Five Advertising for Custom Pens
Four things separate us from a general trading company reselling pens.
1. In-house printing and engraving
Pad printing, UV printing and laser engraving run in our own unit — no subcontractor to chase. Rush jobs for exhibition deadlines are ours to solve, same day.
2. Free digital mockup before production
You see your logo on the actual pen model at actual print dimensions, not a stock photo. Unlimited free revisions until you approve.
3. Pantone matching and a written spec
Colours matched to PMS references, with a spec sheet listing pen model, barrel colour, print positions and dimensions, ink references and refill type. Keep it and your reorder next year matches today’s batch.
4. Low minimums and tiered pricing
Plastic pens from 100 pieces, metal from 50. Prices drop at 250, 500, 1,000 and 5,000 — and we’ll flag when a small quantity bump crosses a price break.
Custom Branded Pens Delivery in UAE
Our standard customized pens are typically produced and delivered within 5–7 working days.
Custom-designed, engraved, branded, or bulk orders generally require up to 10 working days, depending on the design complexity, personalization requirements, and order quantity.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How much do custom pens cost in Dubai?
Price depends on the pen material, branding method, quantity and packaging. Printed plastic pens sit at the low end and are quoted per unit in tiers, while engraved metal pens in gift boxes cost several times more. The biggest single lever is quantity — moving from 250 to 1,000 pieces usually reduces the unit price noticeably. Send your quantity and target budget and we will quote against the closest matching models.
Q2: What is the minimum order quantity for personalised pens?
From 100 pieces for plastic pens and from 50 pieces for metal pens. Individual engraved pens — a single name on a gift pen, for example — can be quoted separately at a small-quantity engraving rate.
Q3: What is the difference between printed pens and engraved pens?
Printing lays ink on the surface and can reproduce your exact brand colours, including full-colour artwork. Engraving removes the top coating with a laser to expose the base material, producing a permanent tonal mark rather than a colour. Printing suits plastic pens and colour-critical logos; engraving suits metal, bamboo and wooden pens and gifts intended to last.
Q4: Can I get my logo printed in full colour on a pen?
Yes. UV digital printing reproduces CMYK artwork including gradients and photographic detail. Light-coloured barrels give the best result because a white base layer keeps the colours bright. Send your artwork and we will show you on the mockup how it will reproduce at actual size.
Q5: Can I see a sample before placing a bulk order?
Yes, and we recommend it for orders above 1,000 pieces or for any gift set. Physical samples let you judge weight, grip and writing feel, which no photograph shows accurately. Every order also includes a free digital mockup of your logo positioned on the actual pen before production begins.
