Choose custom flasks & thermos if your moment is winter client gifting, staff onboarding kits or conference speaker and vip gifts.
Winter client gifting
A 500ml copper-vacuum flask with a tone-on-tone deboss and a branded coffee pairing lands beautifully in June-August briefs. The flask stays on the desk long after the campaign ends.
Staff onboarding kits
Pair a 350ml commuter thermos with a notebook and reusable tote. Laser engraving reads as considered rather than promotional, and the capacity suits the morning coffee run.
Conference speaker and VIP gifts
A 750ml thermos flask with full-wrap sublimation carries a campaign line edge-to-edge. Our project managers handle gift-boxing and split-shipping to hotel concierges for speaker days.
Field and site teams
For resources, construction and utilities briefs, the 1L vacuum flask with a carry handle and wide-mouth lid survives site conditions and keeps soup hot from breakfast to smoko.
“We sent the copper flasks as our winter client gift and three of our accounts reordered the campaign kit for their own teams. The deboss was exactly what we'd hoped for — quiet, considered, the opposite of shouty.”
“The Sense2 team suggested a 350ml commuter size when I'd briefed 500ml, and they were right — our new starters keep them on their desks. Delivery arrived beautifully boxed and a few days ahead of when we needed them.”
“Customers consistently rate Sense2 for bringing brand thinking and warmth to every drinkware project — from brief to launch, with delivery that always lands on time.”

How to choose
Start with when and where the flask gets used — that's where the creative brief starts to write itself. A 350ml commuter thermos is the one that lives on the desk; a 500ml is the all-rounder for office and weekend; a 750ml or 1L suits field teams, travel and hospitality briefs. Double-wall vacuum is non-negotiable for anything carrying the brand — single-wall flasks condensate and the insulation story falls apart. Finish decides how the brand lands. Laser engraving on stainless steel reads as quiet luxury — tone-on-tone, no colour, just a clean mark in the metal. Pad print carries a single-colour logo simply and costs less at low MOQ. Full-wrap sublimation or UV print is how a campaign line wraps the body edge-to-edge, which is where flasks start photographing beautifully for social. Copper-lined interiors hold heat longer; bamboo lids and accents add warmth to premium-tier kits. On MOQ: most flasks start at 50-100 units. Premium copper-vacuum and bamboo-trimmed styles begin at 100. At 500+, expect 20-35% off the 100-qty tier. Always request a sample — flasks are a hand-and-weight decision. Forty-eight hours from our Sydney warehouse, and the choice usually makes itself.
Pricing guidance
Pricing rule of thumb: at 100 units with a 1-position laser engraving, a 350ml stainless thermos sits around AU$14-$22, a 500ml vacuum flask AU$18-$28, a 750ml premium copper-lined flask AU$24-$34, and a 1L field thermos AU$28-$38. At 500 units those drop 20-35%. Full-wrap sublimation adds AU$2-$4 per unit. Laser engraving setup is AU$55-$85 per position, once-off. Gift-box packaging adds AU$2.50-$6 per unit.

Frequently asked questions
What's the minimum order for custom flasks and thermos bottles?▾
Most flasks start at 50-100 units, with premium copper-vacuum and bamboo-trimmed styles beginning at 100. Larger briefs (500+) drop 20-35% from the 100-qty tier. For pilot runs or sampling ahead of a national rollout, ask our team for a stepped quote across 100, 250 and 500.
How long do branded thermos flasks take to produce and deliver?▾
Standard lead time is 10-15 business days from artwork approval. Many core stainless flask lines brand in 1-4 business days, and 3-5 day express is available on selected SKUs. For Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane briefs we can sometimes courier same-week on stocked laser-engraved styles.
What branding methods work best on flasks?▾
Laser engraving reads as premium — tone-on-tone, no colour, a clean mark in the stainless steel that never fades. Pad print carries a single-colour logo at lower cost. Full-wrap sublimation and UV print allow edge-to-edge campaign artwork in full colour. Setup is AU$55-$85 per position, once-off.
How long do your thermos flasks keep drinks hot or cold?▾
Our double-wall vacuum flasks hold hot drinks for up to 12 hours and cold for up to 24. Copper-lined interiors extend heat retention further, which is why we recommend them for winter gifting and field teams. Single-wall styles are not suitable for branded hot-drink briefs.
Do you offer eco-friendly or sustainable flask options?▾
Yes. Our flask range includes recycled stainless steel, bamboo-trimmed lids, and plastic-free gift packaging with FSC paper and recycled fill. For briefs with a sustainability story, our creative team will route you to the styles with the cleanest material provenance and longest product-life profile.
Can I see a sample before I order?▾
Yes — free samples ship Australia-wide, dispatched within 48 hours from our Sydney warehouse. Flasks are a hand-and-weight decision, and the right capacity usually becomes obvious the moment someone holds it. Pre-production samples with your actual engraving or print are available on larger runs.
