Why Choose Our Ice Buckets for Promotional Campaigns
Ice buckets are more than just a drinkware accessory. They’re a branding game-changer. Add your custom or personalised designs to make them perfect promotional items for bars, clubs, and other social and outdoor events. Businesses focusing on social events can increase brand recognition whenever customers grab a cold drink.
The durability of stainless steel and high-quality plastic options ensures long-lasting brand exposure. Unlike disposable promotional items, ice buckets are reused repeatedly, strengthening brand association with every event.
What Are Printed Ice Pails?
They are portable containers that keep beverages cold by storing ice cubes or crushed ice. Commonly used in hospitality, entertainment, and event industries, they range from compact bar buckets for a few bottles to large party tubs ideal for multiple drinks.
Materials vary, including stainless steel, acrylic, and durable plastic; many feature double-wall insulation, built-in handles, or drainage systems for convenience. Businesses use them as bar accessories, event giveaways, and branded merchandise, making them a practical and obvious marketing tool.

Case Study: A Successful Brand Activation with Ice Buckets
Sydney-based beverage company was preparing for a summer product launch and needed a bold, practical promotional product. They ordered 500 custom-branded stainless steel ice buckets from Cubic Promote for events they sponsored, including outdoor festivals, bars, and private tasting events. Each bucket featured its logo and vibrant brand colours using full-colour digital printing. The sleek design made it a social media-worthy product, with attendees snapping photos of their drinks inside the branded buckets. The campaign boosted brand awareness.
