U Name It: personalised printing, embroidery and engraving in Havant

U Name It is a personalisation business based in Havant (United Kingdom) offering personalised printing, laser engraving and embroidery services. Founded by Kate and her husband Dave, the project began with the idea of making it easier to create gifts and items that feel personal and useful to the recipient. The company has more than ten years of experience in the sector and works with both individuals and local businesses, schools, clubs and retailers.

Personalisation services

The main activity is built around three techniques that can be applied to a range of materials and finishes:

• Personalised printing: allows names, messages, logos, photographs or designs to be added to clothing, bags, mugs and other items. It is aimed at birthdays, businesses, events, clubs, schools and family gifts.
• Laser engraving: turns everyday objects into lasting keepsakes through detailed engraving on suitable materials. It is used for gifts, awards, accessories and branded pieces.
• Embroidery: gives a neat finish to clothing, towels, uniforms and accessories through stitched designs that are durable and personal.

Typical products in the catalogue

The U Name It catalogue includes a wide variety of personalisable items. Among the most requested products are custom T-shirts, mugs, tote bags, hoodies and sweatshirts, embroidered towels, engraved gifts, corporate and team clothing, and event merchandise. The company also offers items such as embroidered beanies, photo and message cushions, keyrings, magnets, cake toppers and Christmas sacks, among other examples shown on its website.

How we work

The company's working method follows four steps. First, the customer shares their idea, the item they want to personalise and any names, colours, wording or artwork they want to include. The team then advises on the most suitable technique for printing, engraving or embroidery. Next, the item is made using the right method for the desired finish. Finally, the details, timescales and delivery or collection options are confirmed. The company accepts both single-item orders and larger orders for groups, events or businesses, and there is no need to have a design ready: if the customer does not have final artwork, they can bring an idea and the team will help develop it.

Customers and applications

U Name It has supplied personalised products to individuals, local organisations, schools, clubs and businesses.

The company also handles orders for branded workwear and promotional clothing for businesses.

Track record and new chapter
