Custom Type C USB Drives
Every one of these custom Type C USB drives has both a Type C plug and a USB-A plug, so the real differences come down to body and features. Here's how they step up.
- Metal and plastic double end drives with a swivel or pull cap, running a Grade A chip on USB 2.0.
- Flat plastic wallet card drives sized to sit in a wallet, with free data upload and auto-run or password protection.
- Wheat straw swivel drives that pair a plant fibre body with the same chip, warranties and upgrade option.
- All metal swivel, spin, fold and twin connector drives, with a USB 2.0 upgrade, a one year replacement warranty and a ten year data retention warranty.
A trade show exhibitor wants visitors to leave with the full product catalogue and demo videos, not a flyer that gets recycled at the airport. A drive does that job. The visitor plugs it into their Type C laptop on the flight home, or into the older desktop at the office, and everything opens without a download link or a working wifi signal.
Most styles can be screen printed as branded Type C USB drives, and some can be engraved. The wheat straw options also appear in our eco friendly USB drives.
Things People Ask
What's the difference between Type C and USB-A plugs?
Type C is the smaller oval plug that fits either way up, found on most new laptops, tablets and phones. USB-A is the older rectangular plug, and every drive here has both so one drive covers both port types.
Does USB 2.0 limit what these drives can do?
USB 2.0 handles documents, slides and photos comfortably, and it's the base interface on every drive here. Most styles offer an upgrade for faster transfers, which helps when moving large video files between devices.
How does a swivel drive differ from a fold or pull cap style?
A swivel rotates a cover around the body to expose one plug at a time, while a fold design closes up into a compact shape. A pull cap style comes off to reveal both plugs at once and goes back on to protect them.
Which custom Type C USB drives suit events with a sustainability focus?
Wheat straw swivel drives suit those events, pairing a plant fibre body with the same Grade A chip, warranties and upgrade option as other styles. Both a Type C and a USB-A plug sit on each one, so guests can use it on new and older laptops.
