Former Royal Navy veteran David Bonner turns 25 years of discipline and a lifelong love of making things into a new Kent-based business specialising in laser-engraved keepsakes.
BB Laser Engraved Gifts has officially launched, bringing a new standard of personalised gift-giving to Kent and beyond. Founded by David Bonner, a veteran of over 25 years in the Royal Navy, the business offers fully customised, laser-engraved gifts crafted right here in Kent, designed to last a lifetime. From personalised pet tags and hip flasks to wedding keepsakes and engraved memory boxes, every product is made to order with a name, photo, message, or combination of all three.
Throughout his Naval career, David developed a deep appreciation for precision, quality, and the value of things built to endure. It was this same spirit, a love of creating with his hands and leaving something meaningful behind, that led him to discover laser engraving. What began as a hobby quickly revealed itself as something more: a craft that combined technical skill with genuine emotional impact, producing gifts that don't just look beautiful, but carry real personal significance. After more than two decades of service to his country, David has now channelled that same dedication into building something of his own.
BB Laser Engraved Gifts offers a wide range of products across categories, including home décor, gifts for couples, keyrings, pet accessories, and seasonal items. These are all personalised to order. Unlike printed or embroidered alternatives, laser engraving is permanent. Names, dates, photographs, and heartfelt messages are etched directly into the material, meaning they will never wash away, fade, or peel. Every item is engraved in the UK, ensuring quality at every stage of the process.
"Serving in the Royal Navy taught me that the things worth having are the things built to last," said David Bonner, founder of BB Laser Engraved Gifts. "That's what I want every customer to feel when they hold one of our pieces, that someone took the time to make something just for them, something that will still be there in ten, twenty, thirty years' time. This business is my next chapter, and I'm incredibly proud to be building it here in Kent."
Looking ahead, David plans to expand BB Laser Engraved Gifts into the corporate and events market, offering engraved business cards, name badges, and bespoke products for weddings, corporate events, and hospitality businesses across Kent. With next-day dispatch already available on many products, the business is well-positioned to become the go-to personalisation partner for both individuals and local businesses looking for something genuinely memorable.
