How to choose

Begin with the open and folded dimensions. A paddle presents a continuous face, while a folding design introduces ribs or pleats that need to be considered in the artwork. Ask which area can be printed on the selected model before drawing a border or placing small text near an edge.

Then plan how the fans will be handed out: on seats, at a welcome desk or alongside other individually ordered gifts. Check the packed dimensions against your bags or boxes. Share the artwork, colours, quantities and required date with Sense2. Confirm the material composition and available decoration method for each item, then review the digital artwork proof before production. Setup and freight are quoted separately.

What is the minimum order for custom hand fans?

Minimums start at 100 units in this range; each product states its own minimum order. Unit price depends on quantity, so ask for a stepped quote across the quantities you are weighing up.

How long does production take for custom hand fans?

Between 2–8 weeks from artwork approval, depending on the product — each product page states its own production window. Freight time depends on your destination and is quoted with the order.

Are there eco-friendly custom hand fans?

Yes — 4 products in this range are made with bamboo, recycled materials or rPET. Each product page states its material, so the sustainability claim you make to your recipients is backed by the item itself.

Can I order a sample of Custom Hand Fans before placing a full order?

Yes — samples are available. Samples are charged at cost plus freight up front, and we credit the sample cost back on orders of 100+ units (and for returning customers) — so the sample effectively costs nothing once you order. Branded pre-production samples are also available with a setup fee that's credited back on the full order.

Does the Best Price Guarantee apply to custom hand fans?

Yes. If you show Sense2 an Australian competitor's advertised price for an identical product, we verify it and match it — the guarantee covers promotional merchandise resellers operating in Australia and excludes clearance, seconds and manufacturer pricing. Details are in our terms.

Can I order custom hand fans in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or elsewhere in Australia?

Yes — Sense2 supplies custom hand fans Australia-wide, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Gold Coast and Hobart, with dispatch from our production centres and freight quoted for your destination on each order.

What are custom hand fans typically used for?

Most of this range is chosen for team celebrations, anniversaries and openings. Tell Sense2 the occasion, the recipients and the quantity and we will point you to the right pieces for the brief.

How do I choose between a paddle and a folding fan?

Compare the open dimensions, folded format and printable area of the actual items. Decide whether you want a continuous graphic face or a folding design, then check how the chosen fan fits your handout arrangement.

Can artwork run across the whole fan?

That depends on the selected model. Handles, ribs, folds and edges may change the available print area. Ask for the artwork template and confirm the placement before preparing a full-face design.

What is the minimum order?

Minimum quantities vary by item and decoration. Send the fan you prefer, your quantity and artwork to request a quote. Setup and freight are quoted separately, so compare the complete order rather than a headline unit price.

When should I place the order for an event?

Share the event date and destination at the start. Availability, artwork approval, production and freight all affect the schedule. Confirm timing for the selected fan before treating it as part of your event plan.

What material details should I check?

Ask which materials are used for the face, handle and ribs on the selected fan. A material name does not establish water resistance or care requirements; request the product-specific information if those details matter.

How does artwork approval work?

Sense2 prepares a digital artwork proof for your selected item. Review placement and dimensions before approving production. The digital view is not a physical sample or an exact colour-match guarantee across different materials.

A place on every seat

Imagine the seats set out before a courtyard gathering. Beside the programme sits a folded fan, its artwork planned around the shape of the leaf. At the welcome desk, a rigid paddle is another possibility: a different outline and a different space for the same design. Consider those objects before choosing the print. Where does the guest pick it up? Where does the mark sit when the fan opens? Does the packed item fit alongside the programme? These are small decisions, but they give the brief a practical shape before an order is placed.

When people reach for these

  • At the welcome desk

    Compare rigid fan shapes and print areas for a handout that introduces the event identity.

  • Alongside a seat programme

    Check the folded dimensions and artwork layout of a folding fan before arranging the seats.

  • Inside a visitor gift

    Measure the selected fan against the packaging and quote the other gift items separately.
