Reflekt Experiences is an experiential marketing and live event production company based in Wood-Ridge, NJ, with a second office in Orlando, FL. It produces live printing, on-site personalization and branded photo experiences for brand activations, corporate events and trade shows across the New York metro area and nationwide, for clients including Meta, Google, Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. Rated 5.0★ on Google.
A patch bar lets every guest build their own piece of merch. They browse trays of patches and designs, lay out their favorites on a tote or garment, and our team heat-presses them on in front of them. No two pieces come out the same.
It's a hands-on, creative experience that works for every kind of guest, and it's highly brandable: your logo, product icons, campaign art, city references and event marks can all become designs on the menu. At a Meta event, guests built their own totes from a spread of brand and New York themed designs.
Reflekt staffs the bar, supplies the presses and plans the design menu and guest flow with you. It pairs naturally with laser-engraved leather patches when you want to offer names and logos alongside the patches.

Why book it
Massive brand impact from a simple idea
Guests do the designing
Choosing and arranging patches is fun, low-pressure and social. People compare, trade ideas and come back with colleagues.
Every piece is one of one
Guests leave with merch they designed themselves, which means it gets carried and worn instead of left behind.
Your brand in the menu
Logos, product icons and campaign graphics sit alongside fun designs, so your brand ends up on every finished piece.
Quick to press
After a quick press and cool-down the item is ready to go. We plan the number of presses around your guest count.
Practical takeaways
Tote bags are among the most-used event giveaways: sustainable, practical and visible long after the event.
Works anywhere
Conference foyers, trade show booths, office lobbies and retail floors. The bar scales from one table up.

This was entertaining and unlike anything I’ve ever had at an event before the live printing had everyone mesmerized. I look forward to booking them for our next corporate event.
