Emoji Company partners with Vistaprint to launch new face masks range and support businesses in the US and Canada

The Emoji Company has partnered with Vistaprint to produce a new line of face masks featuring some of the most recognisable Emoji brand icons. Ten per cent of the total sales made by the masks will be donated to help empower small businesses across the US and Canada.

To date, Vistaprint has raised more than $5million in cash and in-kind product donations to support small businesses through its mask sales.

Available in the United States and Canada, the Emoji collection features a variety of designs including some of the most popular Emoji brand icons giving consumers plenty of options to choose from.

“We are excited to be launching this playful collection of masks in collaboration with Emoji- The Iconic Brand that will bring some light and fun to people’s everyday attire,” said Vistaprint’s North America market director, Erin Shea.

“We use digital icons every day to express ourselves on social media, in text conversations, and emails. Self-expression is important and we believe that a mask should not limit a person’s ability to express themselves. Our mask design partnership with the emoji® brand is one way we’re helping people do just that.”

Vistaprint’s RFS masks have a three-dimensional chin structure, a bendable nose bridge, and adjustable straps to give your reusable face mask the perfect fit all day long. Designed with wearability in mind, the masks are available in a wide range of colors and prints for both adults and children. Sold separately in packs of ten, filters can be inserted into the RFS masks. Each filter can be used for up to 12 hours.

“With face masks such an important part of daily life, we welcomed the opportunity to partner with Vistaprint for high quality face masks that empower consumers of all ages to express themselves in unique and fun ways,” said Marco Hüsges, CEO and founder, the emoji company.

Emoji Company partners with Redbubble to allow fans to curate their own licensed merchandise

The Emoji Company has partnered with the world’s largest fan-driven artist marketplace Redbubble in a partnership that will allow fans to develop their own Emoji products by selecting the artwork and the product options they want to see it on.

The official Emoji marketplace and Fan Art Partner programme includes a variety of artwork and product options for fans to choose from. The partnership is the latest move in the customisation movement, bringing fans of the brand exclusive product that can only be found on the Redbubble marketplace.

The deal was brokered by Retail Monster LLC, the emoji company’s North American licensing agent. 

In response to the current recommendations from the CDC and other health organizations regarding face masks, Redbubble has also added the new essential accessory to the Emoji brand merchandise store.

“We know that the creativity of the Emoji branded masks – both the ones in their official store and those designed by independent artists – can help brighten people’s day in these challenging times,” said Redbubble SVP of content partnership and general manager of global licensing, Eric Morse.

“Redbubble is committed to helping make the transition to widespread mask use a bit easier.” 

“Our companies are both rooted in creative expression, building the perfect synergy,” said Marco Hüsges, CEO and founder, The Emoji Company. “We are so excited to see the designs our fans will create. This is the perfect place for people to be able to express themselves and their individuality through high-quality, everyday products they love.” 

The Emoji face masks are now available worldwide on the marketplace.
