Beermats used to promote Community Safety Team

July 08, 2008 By: Whistleblower Category: Beermat Campaigns No Comments →

When Northamptonshire Police wanted to introduce offices of their Community Safety Team, they opted to use beermats provided by UK manufacturer Thirstys to design and print their messages. Beermats were handed out to the public and placed in local pubs and clubs across the area served by the Community Safety Team.

In addition to introducing officers of the CST, the beermats were also used to appeal to the public to support the team by reporting crime and any concerns to the local officers. Because Thirstys beermats are litho printed in full colour, the clarity of the images was excellent.

A spokeperson for Thirstys said “We believe this was an excellent local initiative and providing a perfect opportunity to demonstrate how beermats can be used as a high impact, cost-effective method of getting an important message over. Furthermore, because the beermats are 100% recyclable, this method of advertising is environmentally friendly”.

Thirstys.co.uk Limited is a UK based manufacturer of beermats. Thirstys have lead the way in demonstrating how beermats can be used for non-alcohol marketing and branding exercisees and have eased the process by introducing new production and printing techniques which make it possible to print much smaller volumes at exceptional prices. Thirstys allow customers to order as few as 25 beermats, which are litho-printed, in full colour on genuine beermat (pulpboard) board.

UK beermat manufacturer, Thirstys.co.uk Limited have announced the launch of new volume breaks which will allow purchasers to buy as few as 25 beermats. These new volumes will continue to be litho-printed and, as expected from an established beermat manufacturer, will be genuine beer mats made from pulp board.  In addition to the introduction of volumes as low as 25, Thirstys will also offer other volume breaks of 100, 250, 500, 750, 1000 and upwards.

A Thirstys spokesperson said “although we recognise that most of our customers will continue to require much higher volumes, the introduction of these low volume breaks is to allow our existing customers to use beermats for staff messages, conferences and so on, whilst also allowing businesses that have not utilised beermats before, to dip their tow in the water, without having to break the bank.

Better still, buyers will not have to compromise on quality or impact, because the beermats will, as usual, be manufacturer from pulp board and litho printed, in full colour, if that is required by the design specifications. We will also continue to offer industry leading turnaround times”.

Thirstys.co.uk Limited is a well established UK based manufacturer of genuine, pulp board beermats, litho-printed in full colour. Thirstys can offer different sizes and shapes as required. As well as the UK, Thirstys also have a sister operation based in South Africa. Thirstys export to Asia, Europe and north America.
