Join a Creative Manufacturing Company That's Growing
At Compilation Ltd, every day is different. We design and manufacture bespoke promotional merchandise for businesses, universities, artists, charities and global brands across the UK and around the world.
No two orders are ever the same, which means you'll be creating a huge variety of products rather than repeating the same task every day.
Compilation Ltd is home to two specialist manufacturing brands:
Zap! Creatives – Manufacturers of custom acrylic and wooden merchandise, eco-friendly products and vinyl stickers.
www.zapcreatives.com
The Enamel Pin Factory – Manufacturers of bespoke enamel pins and custom patches.

Our production facility and design studio are based in Thornaby, near Stockton-on-Tees.
