Custom Ducks
🧑‍🎨 Create Your Own Custom Duck
CelebriDucks has created an amazing brand which is sold and collected worldwide. Not only do we make some of the finest rubber ducks in the world, but we offer a degree of expertise in all areas of product development. This makes us a one stop shop for people looking to find the most unique and innovative product possible for their customers. There are many reasons why so many professional sports teams and Fortune 500 companies choose to work with us.
The rubber duck was actually invented in America although all are now made overseas. CelebriDucks is the only company doing all their artwork and sculpting 100% in the USA before doing final production at our factory overseas due to the extreme detail in our designs.
It's a fact that so many promotional products people receive are thrown or given away. What is amazing about CelebriDucks is that people actually hold onto our items which make us one of the most sought after promotional products in the industry.
There is a reason that we are considered the top custom duck manufacturer in the industry. Many people are surprised when they order a custom rubber duck made overseas and get a very hard piece poorly plastic that does not float upright, let’s in water, does not meet the US child safety requirements, and has very little detail. We are considered the Mercedes of rubber ducks which is why the top brands in the world come to us.
The fact that we are considered the best in our industry means that you are in very good hands. In fact, numerous times we often had to take over jobs from other clients that come to us after getting inferior products from overseas. They are not designed well, do not float upright, let in water and thus mold, and are too hard. Plus they are poorly painted, don’t meeting safety requirements for children (which they have to even if it is for an adult crowd), and are often made with unsafe labor practices. You will have none of those concerns with us.
Because we are the only ones in the world who will do small custom runs starting at 1000 units, we get quite busy as we are the only option for so many folks. Thus our lead times can get a bit long depending on our volume of work at any given time. Please expect at least 6-9 months minimum unless we fly them in. Making a duck seems easy, but there is a lot to it. But in the end, you will have something that is so special and so unique that it will do for your brand exactly what you are looking for.
CelebriDucks offers a great branding opportunity as anyone getting one will keep it in their home or on their desk at work for years and years and it will look high-end, not inexpensive. That’s what you want and why people use us. And if you do a press release and get them in the hands of the media, so many PR outlets will run with your story. We’ll also have it in our custom duck section on our website with info about your creation plus often feature it in our social media to get you even more exposure.
In summary:
1) The quality of our products is unsurpassed. CelebriDucks are recognized to be the most intricately sculpted and painted rubber ducks in the world. The website pictures are a pale comparison to the actual ducks and packaging in real life. Unlike most inexpensive rubber ducks, CelebriDucks all float upright even in rough water and are sealed to prevent any water from getting inside. They are all lead free, phthalate free, and conform to the strictest government safety requirements for any country worldwide.
2) Quality Control. How nice it is not to worry about the quality of the end product. It is a common complaint in our industry that what is ordered and what arrives from overseas are not the same. Poor painting, poor engineering, and defective packaging are common.
3) Because of our extensive knowledge of how to work through the approval process in terms of artwork and designs, we are able to seamlessly work with our clients in the back and forth design and manufacturing process. Remember, not only do we produce the finest rubber ducks on the market, but previously we were the largest publisher of artwork from television commercials in the country. We created the first ever animation art lines for Coca-Cola, Anheuser-Bush, M&M/Mars, Pillsbury, Nike, and many others.
4) Expertise. When you have a tight deadline or a very complex and intricate project that demands real expertise, we are the ones you want to call on. We represent over 50 years of design and manufacturing experience.
5) Reliability. In our entire history we have never missed a deadline. What's that worth for peace of mind ... Priceless! Working under pressure is second nature for us.
6) Flexibility. We can create anything. There is virtually no custom project we cannot do in addition to our world class CelebriDucks. If you go to the custom duck section of CelebriDucks.com, you can see examples of some of our work and the tremendous number of well-known clients we have done work for.
7) Fair Pricing. For the quality of work we do and all the extras we add, in the end we can be very competitive. When we quote a price, there are no surprise add-ones. Our prices include such things as artwork design, molds, spray masks, etc., except shipping. It even includes our high-end beautiful gift box which we can be customized.
8) PR Value. If you are looking to get fantastic PR, we are as good as or better than any other similar product on the market having been voted one of the top 100 gifts by Entertainment Weekly. The number of media outlets who love our celebrity rubber ducks is quite amazing. The majority of those who receive one of our ducks will often do a story about the event thus giving our customers tens of thousands of dollars of free publicity.
9) Perceived Value. Due to the fact that we also produce a retail line of CelebriDucks, the end user will tend to hold on to and treasure these beautifully crafted items as opposed to just tossing it away after the event. We are a collectible and have built up a very large collectible market worldwide who appreciate our work.
As mentioned, our production times vary depending on the job, but again we recommend that you leave roughly a minimum of 6-9 months from start to finish and give us as much lead time as possible. Even if you find a less expensive product on the market, you will most likely not find a better one. And what we offer in terms of expertise, experience, and a proven track record really puts us above the rest. Please call or write us at any time if you have any questions whatsoever. All of us here look forward to the possibility of working together. And even if you don’t use us, we are happy to be a sounding board for anyone at no charge!
