A cast metal promotional keyring is a great way to add a touch of elegance to your marketing campaign. Most people are accustomed to plastic or resin cast promotional keyrings; however using metal is a great way to differentiate yourself from the pack. Not only will a cast metal promotional keyring be more elegant than its plastic counterpart, it will also show that your company is a heavy hitter and committed to producing quality products or valuable services. Naturally because it is made out of cast metal this type of promotional keyring is quite a bit more expensive than a plastic keyring both in terms of material and labor costs. This will more than likely not be your every day promotional keyring, however for a big event where you want your company to make an impact there are few choices better than a cast metal promotional keyring.
The sky is the limit when picking your materials for a cast metal promotional keyring; however you will probably want to pick a more inexpensive metal to keep costs low. Obviously a solid Gold promotional keyring is out of the question; however something more reasonable like aluminum, steel, or iron would be better. A good midrange option for a very classy looking cast metal promotional keyring is bronze. A bronze keyring will convey many of the same qualities as gold without the high cost; additionally bronze is a very underappreciated metal for its decorative value. Remember a cast metal promotional keyring is going to be expensive no matter what material you choose so it is really more about managing the cost rather than avoiding it.
It is also possible to apply various finishes to your cast metal promotional keyrings. These finishes can either chemically alter the actual metal, or just act as a top coat to give you your desired effect. Commonly you'll see copper or iron being oxidized to produce a nice patina. Alternatively you can use a top coat of your cast metal promotional keyrings to add an aged or colored effect. These top coats can be as simple as a clear finish to protect the surface of your mental promotional key chain, to as complicated as a dark lacquer that will give the piece an aged effect. No matter what topcoat finish you choose for your mental promotional keyring you will want to apply a clear sealant to protect the surface. The sealants can be either matte or glossy depending on your personal preferences.
