About Us

A Division of Ball Chain Manufacturing

LogoTags is a division of Ball Chain Manufacturing Co., Inc. (Ball Chain), the world’s largest manufacturer of ball chain and related accessories. Founded in 1938 by Frank Taubner and his son, Val, in the garage behind their home in the Bronx, Ball Chain has grown to employ more than 95 people. Under current President Bill and his brothers, Val and Jim, Ball Chain manufactures the industry’s highest quality ball chain and distributes its products globally. Our ball chain is part of everyday life and is featured in items such as light fixtures, plumbing devices, key chains and chain necklaces.

Manufactured in the United States

Still family owned and operated, Ball Chain proudly manufactures all of its ball chain in the USA. We are headquartered in Mount Vernon, New York (just north of New York City). Our 70,000 square foot production facility houses the manufacturing operation, along with offices for the entire company, including the LogoTags division and the Ball Chain Architectural division, which distributes its ShimmerScreen® decorative ball chain curtains. Our factory produces millions of feet of ball chain a week, and we are the only remaining company to manufacture ball chain in the USA.

LogoTags Division is Born

Continuing a decades-long tradition, Ball Chain supplies the U.S. armed forces with ball chain for the iconic military ID dog tag necklaces worn by American soldiers. To meet the increased demand for these necklaces in the marketplace, Ball Chain launched LogoTags, our promotional products division. LogoTags quickly expanded its product line by offering challenge coins, bottle openers, jewelry charms, key chains and custom metal tags of all shapes and sizes. Today, we offer just about every type of promotional product imaginable, helping us to remain at the forefront of the promotional products industry.

Savings Delivered Straight To The Consumer

With 80 years of experience, Ball Chain has forged strong relationships with major suppliers all over the world. These relationships, coupled with the overall volume of our business, allow LogoTags to pass along significant savings to the customer, often as much as 50% over industry competitors. We distinguish ourselves not only with our professionalism and exemplary customer service, but also with our ability to process large volume orders that overwhelm our competitors. Customers benefit from dealing with our experienced staff at every level of the process, from the initial design concept until the highest quality product is in hand. Our in-house team, consisting of sales, art, manufacturing and shipping professionals, makes the entire process seamless and eliminates the need to work with different companies to achieve the finished product.
