Printing Sustainable Promotional Items: FSC® Yardsticks from BAUMA®
In times of climate change, growing resource scarcity, and an increasing environmental awareness in society, sustainability is becoming an ever more strategic necessity for companies – including in marketing and customer retention. Promotional gifts play a central role in this: they are visible ambassadors of the brand and convey values directly. Therefore, the question of what is given as a gift is just as important as how and why.
With the Combination of Environmental Awareness and Brand Communication, Companies Position Themselves Perfectly and Secure Various Advantages:
Sustainability as Part of Brand Identity
Modern consumers expect more from companies than just good products – they expect responsibility. A sustainable promotional gift signals: This company acts with environmental awareness, thinks long-term, and takes social responsibility. This strengthens trust in the brand and promotes customer loyalty – particularly among a younger target audience, for whom ethical consumer behavior is increasingly important.
Eco-Friendly Action as a Competitive Advantage
Sustainable promotional items – such as an FSC®-certified yardstick – appear high-quality, thoughtful, and values-driven. Companies that position themselves clearly in this regard stand out from the competition and can make strong arguments in B2B communication with points like sustainable forestry, durability, and local production.
Added Value with Practical Use – Instead of Short-Lived Giveaway Items
A sustainably produced yardstick is not only an ecological statement but also a practical, durable everyday tool. This increases the likelihood that the item will be used long-term – and thus the promotional message remains present for a longer period. This is in stark contrast to disposable items, which often end up in the trash within a few days and can negatively affect the brand image.
Meeting CSR Requirements & Procurement Guidelines
More and more companies and institutions are adopting sustainable procurement policies or committing to specific environmental standards as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). To succeed as a supplier, one must offer sustainable alternatives – and clearly communicate which certifications and standards are met (e.g., FSC® or REACH compliance).
A promotional gift like an FSC® yardstick from BAUMA® meets several key requirements of modern corporate communication:
- It combines practical use with positive brand perception.
- It conveys credibility and value orientation.
- It supports corporate sustainability goals.
- And, last but not least, it serves as a friendly conversation starter.
Various BAUMA® models with FSC certification are perfectly suited as high-quality giveaways.
| Model | Material | Suitable for |
| FSC® Yardstick B600-650 | Glass birch wood with external metal fittings and hidden rivets | Professional model for tradespeople |
| FSC® Yardstick B700 | Glass birch wood with oiled steel hinges for smooth operation | Ideal for the wood industry, carpenters, or joiners |

High-Tech Printing Technology at BAUMA® – Precision That Impresses
When it comes to printing yardsticks, BAUMA® has set standards for decades – quite literally. The company is considered a pioneer in the field of image printing on yardsticks and has gained a leading position in the industry through continuous investments in modern technology and years of experience. Those who have a yardstick printed at BAUMA® benefit from a well-thought-out printing process that combines quality, precision, and durability.
With the latest techniques such as pad printing and digital printing, a wide variety of designs can be precisely transferred onto the material – whether it’s a simple logo, a multicolored text, or a detailed photographic image. These technologies have been specifically adapted to meet the requirements of yardsticks, ensuring that even the smallest details, such as fine lines or complex color gradients, are displayed clearly, with high contrast and lasting durability.
A yardstick with a print from BAUMA® stands out due to:
- Brilliant colors
- Razor-sharp contours
- High resistance to abrasion and weathering
BAUMA® ensures consistent precision from the first to the last piece. This is achieved through automated quality controls, standardized color systems, and a controlled workflow. Companies that want to use yardsticks as promotional gifts in larger quantities – for example, at trade shows, events, or as customer gifts – can rely on the fact that each yardstick meets the high standards of their brand.
Especially for corporate designs, where color accuracy and recognizability are crucial, this consistency is a significant advantage. Logos appear in the desired company colors, even with more complex CMYK graphics. This not only ensures a high-quality appearance but also builds trust with the recipient, as a professionally printed yardstick looks high-end, well thought-out, and signals appreciation.
In addition, BAUMA® supports its customers with personalized advice on the optimal printing technique, color choice, and positioning of the print – tailored to the intended use.
Whether it’s a one-sided print, double-sided design, or special requests such as numbering and QR codes: The technical infrastructure allows for customizations even with large quantities, without compromising on quality.
In short: When you have a yardstick printed at BAUMA®, you’re choosing a high-quality, precise, and visually appealing solution that sets new standards in technology and quality. Ideal for companies that don’t want to compromise on their promotional materials – whether in small quantities or for large orders.

Target Groups & Areas of Application – Who Has Yardsticks Printed?
A printed yardstick is a highly attention-grabbing promotional item with great everyday utility. Therefore, by 2025, it is no longer just traditional trade businesses or construction companies that commission personalized yardsticks from BAUMA®. More and more companies from various industries are discovering the benefits of this durable promotional gift.
Typical target groups still include construction companies, carpentry shops, joinery businesses, and other craft companies that have yardsticks printed with their own logo, slogan, or contact information – either as a customer gift or as a daily tool for their own staff. However, even DAX-listed corporations and large industrial companies rely on high-quality printed yardsticks as part of their brand communication.
Tip: Companies often have their yardsticks labeled to permanently display contact information or specific details.
A particularly creative use of the yardstick is found in the areas of associations, sports clubs, and federations. For example, football clubs use printed yardsticks as fan merchandise or promotional items – featuring the club logo, club colors, and special designs that evoke emotions and foster a sense of connection. Similarly, insurance companies, banks, and companies from the financial and service industries like to use this versatile promotional gift to remain permanently in the memory of customers.
The production and processing industry is also discovering the yardstick as a robust promotional item that immediately establishes a connection to the brand in the daily work environment.
Whether for equipping distribution partners, for promotional activities in the field, or for employee retention – the benefits of a custom-designed yardstick go far beyond the traditional promotional purpose.
Typical areas of use include, for example:
- Giveaways at trade show booths, exhibitions, and industry events
- Anniversary campaigns with special designs or limited editions
- Promotional gifts for customers and business partners
- Merchandise products for fans and brand ambassadors
- Onboarding or welcome gifts for new employees
Thanks to the ability to print logos, images, company colors, or QR codes with razor-sharp precision, yardsticks can be customized and aligned with the brand. This makes it a perfect promotional item for any company that focuses on sustainability, functionality, and brand impact – whether in the craft sector or in a corporate environment.
Tip: Also available in very large quantities – even with complex print designs!
