IPO deal toys
An IPO happens once. The deal toy is what stays on the desks of the bankers, the board and the founders afterwards, and it is usually the only physical record of the transaction. We design and produce those pieces in house in Antwerp, from lucite embedments to 3D printed and metal tombstones.

Listing gifts that mark the transaction properly
A deal toy for a listing carries a lot of information in a small object: the ticker, the exchange, the pricing date, the deal value and every party at the table. The design job is to make that legible without turning the piece into a plaque. We work from the tombstone advert or the deal summary, translate it into a form that references the company or the sector, and produce it to a standard that matches the size of the transaction.
Built around a closing date that will not move
IPO timelines shift until they suddenly do not. We plan production so the final data, pricing and party list can land late without pushing the delivery date, and we keep the design approved and ready while the numbers are still being confirmed.
Lucite embedments for classic tombstones and prospectus captures, metal for weight and permanence, and 3D printing for shapes that reference the company itself. We combine them when the design calls for it, all under one roof.
Final pricing, allocation figures and the party list often arrive days before the closing dinner. We build the piece so that the last data layer can be applied late in the process without reopening the whole production run.
Design, 3D engineering, production and finishing all happen at Fabit in Antwerp. One point of contact, one standard, and no handover losses between suppliers. That is also why we can answer a brief within 24 hours and ship worldwide from a single location.

Frequently asked questions
Corporate finance teams and capital markets desks ask us the same questions about material, quantity, timing and confidentiality. Here are the answers.
Senior Account Manager
What is an IPO deal toy?
An IPO deal toy is a commemorative object made to mark a company going public. It usually carries the company name and logo, the ticker and exchange, the pricing date, the deal size and the advisers involved, and it is handed to the deal team and management at the closing celebration. Lucite tombstones are the classic format, but metal and 3D printed designs are increasingly common.
How much does an IPO deal toy cost?
Cost is driven by material, size, complexity and quantity. A simple lucite tombstone in a run of thirty sits at the accessible end, while a sculptural metal piece or a bespoke 3D printed design for a landmark listing sits considerably higher. Send the deal details and the quantity and you get a price within 24 hours.
How quickly can you produce deal toys after pricing?
The design and production plan can be finalised while the deal is still in the market, which means the final data layer is the only thing waiting on pricing. That normally allows delivery within a few weeks of pricing, and faster when the closing event is fixed early.
Can you handle confidential deal information?
Yes. Deal data reaches us only when you are ready to share it, we work under your confidentiality requirements, and nothing is published as a case or reference without your written approval.
Do you produce deal toys for other transaction types?
Yes. The same approach applies to M&A closings, financing rounds, refinancings, bond issuances and fund closes. See our deal tombstones page for the full range.
