On the twenty third of September, the Kingdom dresses in green and white, and the occasion becomes a chance for your brand to share a meaningful national moment with customers and employees. But real presence is not created by placing a logo on a gift. It comes from a clear idea, the right material, and execution that respects the identity of the occasion.
Custom printing for Saudi National Day 96 starts with defining the campaign’s goal, whether it is employee gifts, boxes for VIP clients, or seasonal product packaging. The official “Our Pride Is In Our Nature” identity (عزّنا بطبعنا) is then carefully combined with your company’s own identity.
Since 1998, Dar Medhat ElSewedy Printing has helped companies, restaurants, hotels and institutions turn seasonal ideas into gifts, packaging and print materials ready for production and shipping preparation to Saudi Arabia. In this guide, you will learn about the best options for National Day 96, and how to choose what suits your audience, your budget and your campaign timeline.
Start planning your order early, and set aside enough time for design, sampling and production before the National Day season gets busy.
What Does Custom Printing for Saudi National Day Mean?
Custom printing for Saudi National Day means turning the occasion’s identity and your company’s identity into print materials, gifts and packaging designed for a specific goal, not just placing a logo on an existing product.
Customization starts with defining the audience, the intended use, and the quantity, then choosing the product, size, material, colors, message and suitable finishing. A campaign may include gift boxes, bags, cups, stickers, notebooks, and point of sale materials.
The goal is for every piece to carry a consistent identity that respects “Our Pride Is In Our Nature,” while keeping your brand clearly visible, whether the campaign targets employees, customers, or branch visitors.
Why Is Saudi National Day 96 an Exceptional Marketing Opportunity?
The Numbers Say It All
Over 35 million people celebrate the same occasion at the same time. No other season carries this scale of shared emotional engagement.
Weeks of preparation: companies, families and institutions start preparing 4 to 6 weeks before the season.
Open budgets for national gifts: major Saudi companies allocate significant budgets to employee and client gifts during this season.
Three Things That Make the Difference
Timing: a company that sends its national day gift on the first of September stays in memory longer than one that sends it on National Day itself.
Quality: a cheap national gift says obligation, not care. A premium gift says you deserve this.
Personalization: your company’s logo on a national gift means presence in a powerful emotional moment, which builds a deeper relationship with your customer.

The Saudi National Day 96 Identity: What Should You Consider Before Designing?
The General Entertainment Authority launched the identity for Saudi National Day 2026 under the slogan “Our Pride Is In Our Nature,” inspired by the values and character that define Saudi society. To preserve the identity, official files should be used instead of copying the logo from an image or redrawing it.
Before sending the design to print, make sure of the following.
Following the identity’s colors, proportions, and the safe spacing around the logo. Not changing the logo’s shape, font, or the arrangement of its elements. Preparing a version suited to each product’s space instead of using one design for every size.
Achieving a clear balance between the National Day identity and your company’s logo. Reviewing the colors on the actual material and approving a sample before producing the full quantity.
What Can Companies Print for Saudi National Day?
Saudi National Day print materials range across corporate gifts, product packaging, and restaurant or branch setups. The right choice starts with the audience and how the item will be used, not with the product shape alone.
Corporate Gift Boxes
Rigid boxes or custom cardboard boxes can be produced for employees, customers and key partners, printed with the company logo and an occasion message, with an insert added to hold the contents in place. The box type is determined based on the gift’s value, weight, and how it will be distributed.
Date, Chocolate and Coffee Boxes
Well suited to Saudi hospitality and gifting, these can be designed with different sizes and internal dividers to present dates, chocolate or coffee along with a greeting card. Materials and inserts should be chosen based on how the product is packed and its safety requirements.
Bags and Seasonal Product Packaging
Stores can launch limited National Day packaging through custom boxes, bags and sleeves. If reproducing the entire package is not suitable for the budget, the current packaging can be refreshed with a carefully designed seasonal sleeve or sticker.
Available types:
Delivery bag: for restaurants doing delivery, printed with a national design along with the restaurant’s name and contact details.
Retail bag: for shops and stores, a premium design that highlights the store’s national identity.
Gift bag: for premium products, a rope handle with green and gold paper inside.
Cups and Cup Sleeves for Restaurants and Cafes
Paper cups, cup sleeves and bags help unify the look of a restaurant or cafe’s campaign across branches and delivery orders. Materials and inks suited to the intended use should be used, and design clarity should be reviewed across different sizes before production.
The most requested designs: a palm frond pattern on a green background, a map of the Kingdom in national colors, a company logo with “for Saudi National Day 96,” and custom national phrases.
Available sizes: 4 ounces, 8 ounces, 12 ounces, 16 ounces, and 20 ounces.
Food safe guaranteed materials: all our cups are made from food grade paper with a safe internal PE coating for hot and cold drinks.
Notebooks, Planners and Greeting Cards
Notebooks and planners suit employee and customer gifts because they are practical, and the cover and first pages can be customized with the company’s name and message. A greeting card can also be added inside the gift or order for a personal touch.
Stickers and Point of Sale Materials
Stickers are used to refresh existing products and packaging, while display posters, standees and storefront decals help unify the look of branches. Each design should be prepared based on size, viewing distance, and the nature of the surface it will be applied to.
Uses: stickers on existing products to mark the season, promotional giveaway stickers at events, stickers for vehicles and storefronts, and a custom QR code directing customers to national offers.
Available types: paper sticker, waterproof vinyl, transparent, and gold or silver foil.
Brochures, Flyers and Promotional Print Materials
These print materials suit National Day promotions, events, and distribution campaigns inside stores and exhibitions. A QR code can be added to direct the customer to the offer or campaign page, instead of loading the design with a large amount of information.
Start with the goal, not the product. A gift for VIP clients differs from an employee gift, and seasonal packaging differs from branch setup. Defining the audience first helps you choose the solution that delivers real value without unnecessary cost.
Materials and Finishing Suited to National Day Print Materials
There is no single material or printing method that suits every product in the campaign. The choice depends on the number of pieces, how long they will be used, how they will be distributed, and the value you want the recipient to feel.
Choosing the Product Structure
| Option | Suited For | What to Consider |
| Folding carton | Product boxes and commercial distribution | Lighter for storage and shipping, suited to large quantities |
| Rigid box | VIP client gifts and premium boxes | Stronger rigidity and opening experience, but higher cost and storage space |
| Coated paper | Flyers, posters and bags | Displays colors and images clearly |
| Uncoated paper | Cards, notebooks and gifts with a natural character | A calm texture, but colors appear differently than on coated paper |
| Paper or vinyl sticker | Packaging, storefronts and seasonal refreshes | Chosen based on the surface, duration of use, and exposure to water or sun |
For cups and food packaging, materials, inks and coatings should be chosen based on the intended use, without assuming that any paper material is automatically suitable for contact with food or drinks.
Offset or Digital Printing?
Digital printing is practical for limited quantities, prototypes, and orders that include multiple names or designs. Offset usually becomes more efficient when producing large commercial quantities that need color consistency and a better unit price.
The choice is made after knowing the quantity, size, material and number of designs, not based on one method being absolutely better than the other.
Finishing That Adds Value to the Design
- Hot foil: suited for highlighting the logo or a simple element in gold or silver.
- Spot UV: adds localized gloss to a specific word or engraving.
- Soft touch: gives the surface a smooth texture and a calm look.
- Matte or gloss lamination: protects the printing and changes how colors reflect.
- Embossing or debossing: adds a tactile effect to the logo or main element.
- Variable printing: allows a different name to be added for each employee or customer.
- Internal inserts: hold the box’s contents in place and improve how they appear when opened.
A premium gift does not need every finish used together. Often, choosing one or two finishes that serve the idea is stronger than a crowded design that raises cost without improving the experience.
Design Ideas for National Day 96
The Most Used Visual Elements
Core colors: Saudi green (#006C35), the official color of the national identity. White for contrast and purity. Gold for luxury and celebration.
Symbols and elements: use the official elements of the National Day 96 identity, patterns inspired by traditional textiles, and the approved heritage fonts and patterns, while avoiding use of the Saudi flag or the state emblem on commercial products.
The most requested phrases for printing: “96 years of pride and glory,” “Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, strength and glory,” “Happy National Day,” “We are proud of our belonging,” and “Saudi National Day 96.”
Mistakes to Avoid in National Day Designs
Using the wrong green: the official Saudi green has a specific code, #006C35. Deviating from it shows a lack of attention to detail.
A crowded design: simpler is always better. A large clear logo plus a national color plus one distinctive element is stronger than ten overlapping elements.
Low quality logo: your company logo should be at least 300 DPI. A pixelated logo on a national occasion leaves a bad impression that is hard to erase.
Ignoring lighting: dark colors under dim indoor lighting look different. Test the design in an environment similar to where it will be used.
Using too much finishing: it raises the cost and can make the design crowded without adding a real effect.
Relying on a screen preview: colors and texture vary with the material, printing and finishing, which is why a physical sample remains important.
Ignoring packing and shipping: the packaging and stacking method should be designed to protect the products until they arrive and get distributed.
Ordering late: production capacity for the national season fills up starting mid August. Ordering late means paying rush fees or missing the delivery date.
