Soft PVC Keyrings for Custom Bulk Orders
Soft PVC keyrings (also known as keychains) are flexible, colour-rich, and designed for everyday use.
They are ideal when you need bold shapes, clean edges, and a tactile 3D finish — without the risk of rust,
cracking, or peeling over time.

Manufacturing Experience That Matters
Although our name includes “Embroidery”, our manufacturing expertise extends across multiple materials,
including Soft PVC. The same production principles apply: understanding how digital artwork behaves
when it becomes a physical object.
With PVC, small decisions have a big impact. Line weight, colour joins, and mould depth directly affect
clarity and durability. For this reason, every design is reviewed before production to ensure the final
keyrings are clean, consistent, and repeatable.
Why Every Order Includes an Artwork Check
For PVC keyrings, a mock-up is more than a visual preview. It is a technical check to confirm that the
artwork is suitable for moulding and colour separation.
- Minimum line weights are checked to prevent colour bleed
- Colour split points are reviewed and raised separators added where required
- Fine detail is assessed to ensure long-term durability and legibility
How Soft PVC Keyrings Are Produced
Soft PVC keyrings are manufactured using custom moulds, with liquid PVC injected into recessed areas.
This process makes PVC ideal for bold, iconic shapes and simple-to-medium detail.
If a design contains excessive fine detail, secondary information can be moved to the reverse using
silkscreen printing — keeping the front clear, readable, and visually strong.
The Anatomy of a Premium PVC Keyring
- The Base: A solid PVC body, typically around 4mm thick, providing durability and a quality hand-feel
- The Jump Ring: High-tension metal designed to retain shape and reduce key loss
- The Attachment: Split ring, lobster claw, or ball chain selected to suit real-world use
Design Cheat Sheet (Reduce Revisions)
Following these guidelines helps artwork pass approval faster and reduces unnecessary revisions.
| Feature | Technical Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Minimum Line Weight | Lines should be at least 0.2mm thick to mould cleanly and remain visible. |
| Colour Separation | PVC is injected into moulds. A subtle raised ridge is used to prevent colour bleeding. |
| Backside Printing | Complex text or QR codes can be silkscreen printed on the reverse. |
Use Cases Beyond Giveaways
PVC keyrings are often used as long-term brand assets rather than short-term promotional items.
- Asset tagging: Colour-coded keyrings for tools, vehicles, or equipment
- Limited editions: Moulded numbering for collectable or retail releases
- Luggage and kit tags: Larger PVC formats for teams, tours, or events
Durability & Surface Finish
PVC is highly resistant to moisture, impact, and everyday wear. Unlike metal, it will not rust.
Unlike acrylic, it will not crack if dropped.
Matte and low-static finishes are available to improve grip and reduce dust or lint attraction during use.
PVC vs Embroidered Keyrings
While
Embroidered Keyrings
offer a classic textile appearance, Soft PVC is better suited to waterproof applications and true 3D shaping.
- Choose embroidery for stitched texture and fabric character
- Choose PVC for bold shapes, colour blocking, and weather resistance
- Combine both by simplifying the front and placing detail on the reverse
