Custom USB flash drives that are designed and manufactured in a shape that matches a company product or logo are without doubt one of the most compelling and popular USB flash drive options available. Compared to standard "factory designs" fully customised flash drives grab peoples attention and get them "chatting" about the flash drive they've been given and the product it represents.
But, custom USB flash drives are not without their problems:
- They are more expensive than standard USB flash drives. This is because a custom mould has to be created to allow the fabriaction of the USB sticks and each mould can only be used for the customer that commissions the custom USB sticks
- The lead time is longer - the typcial lead times for a standard flash drive printed with a logo is around 7-10 days but the lead times for custom USB sticks can be as much as 4-6 weeks. Part of this is to allow for a phyiscal sample to be produced and sent to the client for approval before mass production begins.
Pretty much any shape can be produced but more importantly these new hybrid products can be produced in a much shorter timeframe and without the premiums normally associated with custom USB flash drives (old school custom USB that is).
