How To Design Your Own Pencil Case

When you create your own pencil case with Contrado, you can be assured that you will receive a completely unique piece, that has been handmade specifically for you. Skilled print technicians and seamstresses work together to ensure the perfect final product. Once you upload your designs onto the system, they are quality checked and then printed onto the flexible and strong neoprene fabric. The neoprene has a slight sheen to it, which will give your designs even more life. This print techniques create a flawless and permanent finish, as we print deep into the fibres of the fabric. Seamstresses then sew the front and back of the case together in a seamless finish, and add the zipper in your choice of trim colour.



Care Instructions

To maintain the life of your pencil case, we recommend wiping it with a damp cloth if it gets dirty or dusty. Alternatively, you can pop it in the washing machine on a cold and delicate wash cycle.

  • Wipe Down
  • No Soak

Design Tips

Your pencil case measures 20 x 12.5cm, making it landscape in design. As such, we recommend keeping this orientation in mind when creating the design for your case. Repeat patterns work particularly well, otherwise, use images that are wider rather than longer, to ensure you get the best out of your designs.

    When you create your own pencil case, you are a step closer to being that bit more organised and tidy. These cases are perfect for adults and children alike. If you have an arty kid at home, who loves doodling and drawing wherever they go, then design a pencil case and let their passion grow. You can customise the design with paintings or drawings made by them, and even add their name or a little portrait to make it even more personal.

  • Business

    For airline companies, these pouches would make ideal gifts for passengers. They can be filled with complimentary treats. This would work particularly well for Business Class or First Class passengers. They can be filled with items such as mini shampoo, face wash, moisturiser, a cleaning cloth, and a mini toothbrush and toothpaste set. Upload the logo and branding of the airline onto the case, so passengers will always look back on their flight in a positive way.

  • Design Brand

    Design your own pencil case with original artwork and expand your current product line. If you are looking for ways to update your portfolio, then homeware and stationary are a wonderful way to attract new clients and please existing ones. This custom pencil case is a simple yet stylish piece, that can be used to store everything from pens and pencils, to everyday essentials. Printed with your designs, your clients will love adding this case to their home.

Frequently asked questions:

Is the print permanent?

Yes, the print on your new pencil case is absolutely permanent. We use a specialist printing method where the inks are fused deep into the fibres of the material, creating a lasting finish that won't fade away or scratch off.

How big is this pencil case?

Your pencil case measures 20cm long and 12.5cm high. This is the perfect size for everything from pens and pencils, to scissors and protractors! It is a great size to pop into your handbag, work bag or school bag.

What is it made from?

We make these cases out of a durable and flexible custom printed neoprene fabric. This fabric was chosen thanks to its thick and spongy handle, which is protective and secure, and its amazing print qualities.

Print Guideline

  • DPI-Print Guideline Icon

    What's the best resolution to print in?

    We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally, your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi, this means that no resizing of your file occurs stopping any interpolation.

  • Jpeg-Tiff Print Guideline Icon

    Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?

    For multi-coloured or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.

  • RGB-CMYK Print Guideline Icon

    Which colour model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?

    We advise providing images in the RGB colour space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best colour results.What does this mean? In your editing software choose RGB as the working space, and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)

  • GSM ICON

    What does GSM mean?

    Grams per Square Meter (GSM) is an international standard for measuring the weight of paper or fabric. GSM uses the weight of a square meter (1000 x 1000mm) as an indication of the weight and thickness of a given fabric. We class 20-100gsm as light (summer fabrics, gauzes and fine silks), 101-249 gsm as medium (most clothing fabrics) and 250+ gsm as heavy (upholstery fabrics, and other specialist fabrics).

  • Fill Bleed Areas ICON

    What are bleed areas?

    When designing your product, it’s best to make sure that your image is slightly larger than needed. In printing, the extra printed image is referred to as a “Bleed Area” or margin, and it is removed from the finished piece. A bleed area acts as a buffer for slight inconsistencies in the manufacturing process. however, it’s important to fill your bleed areas completely, or you may end up with white, unprinted strips along the edge of your finished product.

  • Transfer-Print Guideline Icon

    Do you print on garments a customer supplies?

    Unfortunately not. All our garments are printed on flat fabric and sewn into finished products, which gives a better-finished result and all-over print. We test meticulously so that we know what gets the best results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, so if you have access to a heat press you can press your fabrics or flat garments easily.

  • Pattern Alignment Across Seams ICON

    Can you Align a Pattern or design across panels of a garment?

    We always strive for the greatest accuracy when printing and constructing your garments. However, due to unavoidable stretch or movement of the fabric during the stitching process, we cannot guarantee perfect pattern registration across garment seams. We are generally accurate within 2-3mm, which is close enough for most patterns but may show slight issues with detailed geometric patterns.

  • print label option icon

    Can I print my own Labels?

    Most of our garments now come with printable label space for you to add your own company information and branding! If you would like to sew in your own labels, we also offer Printed Fabric Labels here.

  • Eco friendly Printing

    How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?

    With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water-based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colours and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfilment.

Please note: As everything we provide is handmade to order, all measurements may vary slightly.
