Your Brand, In Their Hand

If you’ve ever spotted a small box of mints at your favourite airline, hotel or insurance company, there’s a good chance it came from us—through ADMINTS®.

We’re the only ones in Australia offering this kind of custom-printed, portion-controlled mint box. Whether it’s JILA® mints, JOLS® pastilles or jellybeans, ADMINTS® makes it easy to put your brand directly into customers’ hands.

Most recently, we partnered with DULUX to deliver 22 million jellybeans—each one packed into fully recyclable, individually branded boxes. It looked great, carried their brand far and wide, and fixed a long-standing issue with spoilage from bulk jars.

ADMINTS® isn’t just smart branding—it’s practical, hygienic and made to leave a lasting impression.
