Griffith University – Gold Coast
Last Updated: 15 April 2026
Griffith University, renowned for its sustainability efforts, wanted a practical, eco-friendly giveaway for their new students during Orientation Week. They ordered 2,000 green reusable straws from Cubic Promote, each set in a container with the Griffith logo. The straws not only aligned with the university’s values but also provided students with a functional, long-lasting item for the school year.
Given out at student info booths, the straws quickly became a hit, thanks to their bright colour and usefulness, particularly in the Queensland heat. They sparked conversations about sustainability, while offering students a practical item to use throughout the year. View Griffith University – Gold Coast website
