Campaign masks are the new trend for election mementos in 2022

Political mementos are a part of modern elections. And in 2022, the campaign mask is a big trend. More and more candidates are giving out face masks at campaign events, whereas in the past they often gave voters tissue paper. We took a trip to a mask manufacturer that is happy to be booked up with orders from local politicians. Face masks roll off a production line. A political candidate’s card is placed on each one before they are packaged. Then a sticker is added by hand, and these campaign mementos are ready to leave the busy factory. Yang Ssu-min FTV reporter The mask factory is working flat out, with 18 machines working at full speed, all in an effort to get these campaign materials out as fast as possible. As electioneering ramps up, candidates are giving out all kinds of flyers and leaflets at events. Many printers are totally booked up with orders, there’s so much demand. This production line is expected to be running 13 hours a day from now until November, producing 300,000 masks a day. Yang Chia-hao Biotech company CEO In the past it was always packs of tissues that were campaign promotional products. Now, because mask production costs are low, and you can package them individually, it’s changed a lot. We used to place the candidate’s card behind the pack of tissues. We don’t do that now. You can print it on the whole mask. You can also put a card in with the mask. Some masks come with a card, while others have a name or a slogan printed directly on. The production cost of face masks used to be much higher. Following advances in technology and the greater protection afforded by new materials, custom masks are a more attractive freebie. They’re cheaper, too. Chao Chin-ying Biotech company CEO In reality our production costs are only NT$3-4 per gram. So, accordingly, we use them in our masks and toiletries, for example. So that’s why our final price is affordable for the general public. Before the pandemic, there were about 44 mask manufacturers in Taiwan. After demand exploded and the “National Mask Squad” was formed, manufacturers multiplied until there were almost 700. Many shut down afterward, and now there are about 200 manufacturers. Luckily at election time there’s a fresh spike in demand for election souvenirs.
