Sadly There are No Stress Balls Made In Australia

Unfortunately there are no stress balls made in Australia but if you’re like us and want to support local industry, we do get all of ours printed locally instead of overseas. I guess PU material items are too difficult for local industry so all the different stress balls and shapes you see on our website and others are all imported from overseas. I guess you can only be competitive in certain things and for Australian businesses this is not one of them. We do use local printers both I Sydney and Melbourne depending on where you are based, so at least we can get that done here.

It’s amazing how popular stress balls have become as a promotional item. We sell tens of thousands every year to all manner of businesses, adding custom printed logos or slogans. They are very popular as training tools for human resources departments, along with hospitals and obviously any one dealing with stress management. We recently had a company that demanded we get them locally, but after we explained that wasn’t possible they said they would go elsewhere. Two days later they called back to place an order. We were very polite and didn’t tell them “we told you so”.
