Product categories
Our product range is divided into four main product groups, which are the most frequently chosen categories.
Often the most important aspect is flexibility and short lead time. Our “Sprint” medals can be done in as little as 2 weeks. The production is especially economical in smaller quantities, as it is not necessary to make an expensive metal mould for casting. The best price / value ratio is available for larger sizes (70-90 mm). They are mainly made using recycled metal, so in addition to the low cost, they are also considered to be particularly environmentally friendly compared to other medals.
Our most successful product category. It is characterized by uncompromising quality and endless variability. A “Specialtymedal” is made with the most advanced casting technology available on the market using a metal mould at high pressure, resulting in exceptional richness of detail and beautifully crafted surfaces due to its high density. After finishing is done, the medals gets hand polishing and then receive a layer of lacquer, ensuring the highest quality and durability.
A coin is an excellent choice for your business partners, sponsors or other honorees. Unlike medals, they are made without ribbons metal loop, so they can be placed in either a gift box or a plastic capsule. If required, they can also be made of brass raw material with die stamping technology. Ask for a diamond cut for a truly high-quality, exclusive look.
A custom-made pin or badge can be an elegant representative of your company, association or a timeless memory of an important event. You can also use it to honor your partners or excellence.
Other products:
In addition to the four main categories above, we make keychains, shopping cart coins, tie pins, custom crystal and metal awards, and plaques.
Finishings
You can request your medal or badge with many different finishings. You can choose from classic gold, silver or bronze colors, glossy, matte or antique. You can also request a black nickel or rose gold medal / badge, but a custom matte or metallic finish is also available.
Enamel options
Below are the most common painting options you can choose for our “Specialtymedal”, “Coin” or “Badge” products. The coloring is done with enamel, we work with direct colors based on the PANTONE scale.
The basic coloring is done by soft enamel. Optional epoxy coating available, which we usually recommend for keychains and badges. If you want to toss your coin / badge with something other than the colors, we recommend glittering or painting that glows in the dark.
Hard enamel is also available, it is mainly recommended for badges and can only be used in combination with shiny (gold, silver or rose gold) finishings.
If you have other requests or ideas, we are also open to them. In the past we have implemented numerous ideas based on the requests of our customers. We have already made, among other things, a transparent, Tiffany-style enamel. Also have combined medals with a unique, printed plexiglass insert. Browse the “special” category in our works for more inspiration.
Design
When ordering, you can choose between two- and three-dimensional implementations. Both options are of course embossed. Two-dimensional means several (usually 2-5) distinct planes. For colored, painted medals, we usually recommend this solution. The three-dimensional design is much more detailed and realistic. We recommend it if you prefer a metal-colored, classic-looking solution.
Ribbons
Our standard one- or two-color ribbons are available from our collection in several colors or national tricolor. Our sublimated satin neckbands are made according to individual designs with four color prints. Can be made in single or double-sided design. All our strips are 900 mm long and 20 to 35 mm wide (the standard, solid colors can only be selected in 20 mm sizes, with a few exceptions).
