One pen. Many ways to carry it. ✍️

From keys and backpacks to lanyards and gear loops, Pokka Pens are designed to move with the people who rely on them every day. Whether it’s a warehouse associate keeping notes on the floor, a technician needing quick access on the job, a delivery driver grabbing signatures on the go, or an office professional moving between meetings, having a pen within reach makes a difference.

This is what Pokka was built for...simple, reliable access to a writing tool wherever work happens. Practical design, flexible carry options, and everyday usefulness all in one compact pen. Perfect for promo purposes.

Some moments are meant to be savored. 🥃🍫

Warm notes of chocolate and bourbon, rich textures, and a writing experience designed to linger. PenScents brings together scent and function in a way that feels indulgent, familiar, and intentionally crafted.

In partnership with St Regis Group (SRG), we’re showing how sensory-driven writing instruments can elevate promotional moments. From corporate gifting and client appreciation to hospitality, events, and brand experiences that aim to leave a lasting impression. When a pen engages more than just the page, it becomes a conversation starter people remember long after it’s received.

Mondays after a long holiday have a rhythm all their own.

Getting back into the swing, catching up, and easing into the week one small step at a time. Watching details like O-rings being placed on Garland pen components is a quiet reminder that progress doesn’t have to be rushed, it just has to be steady.

There’s something grounding about returning to familiar processes and letting the work guide you back in. Here’s to smooth starts, well-made details, and a week that finds its flow.

These moments from our company holiday party capture what we’re most grateful for...time together, shared laughs, and a chance to celebrate the people behind the work. Coming together outside of the day-to-day reminds us how strong this team truly is.

AAWI is built on dedication, collaboration, and genuine care, and we’re thankful for everyone who makes this place what it is. As we head into a new year, we’re carrying that spirit with us.

Wishing our team, partners, and community a happy and healthy New Year. 🎉✨

As a new year begins, we find ourselves thinking about what brands are really looking for right now. Clean design. Simple ideas. Something familiar, but done in a new and thoughtful way.

The RePen® embodies that mindset, created using rPET made from recycled water bottles, turning something old into something purposeful and new. It’s a reminder that meaningful branding doesn’t have to be loud to be impactful. Sometimes the most memorable pieces are the ones that feel intentional, responsible, and easy to use every day.

As we look ahead, we’d love to ask: what are your clients hoping to see in the new year? Fresh branding, sustainable materials, or timeless simplicity with a modern twist?

There’s something incredibly satisfying about watching an idea take shape...literally. This is injection molding in action, where Pokka keychain docks are formed with precision, consistency, and care right here in our facility.

From tooling to molding to final assembly, keeping this process in-house allows us to maintain quality, move quickly, and stay closely connected to the products we make every day. It’s hands-on manufacturing at its best, and a behind-the-scenes look at how even the smallest components are thoughtfully made.

Built with intention, molded with expertise, and ready for everyday use.

Sometimes the smartest solutions are the ones that quietly do their job well.

The RePen® is one of those products, thoughtfully designed using rPET made from recycled water bottles, helping reduce plastic waste while still delivering reliable, everyday performance.
