7 Reasons Clipper Lighters Are the Ultimate Promotional Product in 2025

According to a 2023 ASI study, 67% of consumers keep promotional items for more than a year and those who do are significantly more likely to feel loyalty toward the brand.

So why are some lighters still seen as a throwaway item?

If you're considering branded merchandise for your event or company, choosing the right lighter is more than a design choice - it's a statement.
And Clipper lighters are quickly becoming the smarter, safer and greener choice for forward-thinking B2B marketers in the EU.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Clipper lighters safe?

Yes, Clipper lighters meet rigorous EU safety standards including ISO 9994 and EN13869. They are designed with child-resistant mechanisms and fixed flames for controlled use.

Why are Clipper lighters better?

They are refillable, recyclable, brandable, and built with higher-quality materials. They also last longer and offer better user experience.

Can Clipper lighters explode?

Like all pressurized products, misuse can pose risks. However, Clipper lighters are engineered for safety, and incidents are rare when used properly.

How long do Clipper lighters last?

With proper use and refills, a single Clipper lighter can last months or even years, far outlasting disposable competitors.

They are made from nylon (body) and metal components for the ignition and flint systems. The materials are durable and chosen for safety and reusability.

Safety First: Why Clipper Is a Trusted Brand

Many cheap lighters are prone to malfunction, which can be a legal and reputational risk.
Clipper lighters, made in compliance with ISO 9994 and EN13869 safety standards, feature a fixed flame and child-resistant mechanism.
They are engineered to reduce the risk of accidents, making them ideal for giveaways at public events or MERCHANDISE CAMPAIGN MARKETING.

Sustainability That Speaks Volumes

Clipper lighters are REFILLABLE AND RECYCLABLE, making them a standout in the era of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) brand responsibility.

They help reduce plastic waste compared to disposable alternatives, aligning with the EU Green Deal and the values of eco-conscious consumers.

In a world where sustainability is more than a buzzword, a Clipper lighter reflects a brand's commitment to real impact.

Brandability and Everyday Visibility

Thanks to their iconic cylindrical shape and removable flint system, Clipper lighters offer more surface area for branding.

They're also used daily — at events, at home, or on the go. That means more impressions and longer brand exposure. According to a Global Ad Impressions study, the average promotional lighter generates 1,000+ impressions over its lifetime.

Durability and Reuse: A Long-Term Investment

While most promo lighters are tossed after a few uses, Clipper lighters can last for months - even years - with refills.

This significantly increases your return on investment.
Users can refill the gas and replace the flint, giving your brand presence a long shelf life.
