Lapel Pin Types
Century
Hard Enamel Lapel Pins - The most popular pin manufacturing
process used today. An excellent and less expensive alternative
to Traditional Hard Enamel, Century Hard Enamel uses a resin
paste to achieve an authentic, hard, glasslike appearance.
Unlike Traditional Hard Enamel, Century Hard Enamels can be
matched to meet your exact PMS color needs. |
Traditional
(Cloisonné) Hard Enamel Lapel Pins - An
art developed over 6,000 years ago in China. Each design is
stamped into metal. The recessed areas are filled with a glass
paste, (in limited colors), and individually hard fired at
1,400-degree temperatures. A beautiful hard glass finish is
created, making Traditional Hard Enamel the choice for those
who require the very best. |
Die-Struck
Lapel Pins - In place of enamel colors, add elegance
to your pins using stamped metal to express your message with
simplicity. A variety of plating, finishes and textures can
be incorporated for added style and identity.
The
perfect solution for recognition and award programs, Die-Struck
Medals & Medallions are authentic symbols
of achievement. Available as 2- or 3-dimensional dies, with
a variety of finishes including gold, silver and copper
plating, sandblast, high polish and antique or matte. |
Etched
Soft Enamel Lapel Pins - Your design is photo etched
into a bronze base metal, creating thin and shallow recessed
areas. Enamel colors are then injected into the areas, creating
fine color-between-the-lines detail - not possible with other
metal processed. An epoxy dome can be applied for added protection
and a glossy effect. |
Stamped
Soft Enamel Lapel Pins - Your design is stamped
into a copper base metal creating deep, recessed areas. Enamels
are then injected into the areas about 3/4 full, achieving
a dimensional effect of higher metal walls with your design.
The enamels are well protected within the metal walls and
can be left exposed for a 3D effect, or an epoxy dome can
be applied for added protection and a glossy finish. |
Silkscreen
Printed Lapel Pins are ideal for solid color design
reproduction on a metal or enamel base. Colors are printed
one at a time to create a sharp, 100% printed pin, or combination
enamel pin with screen-printed images or text for added clarity.
An epoxy dome may be applied for added durability. |
Offset
Printed Lapel Pins are the perfect alternative
when the enamel fill process is not compatible with your design,
or when vivid high color impact is your goal. As in traditional
printing, your design is separated into four colors - CMYK,
enabling continuous tone color variations into your pin design.
An epoxy dome is then applied for added durability. |
| Lapel
Pin with Simulated Precious Stones - When your main objective is to professionally reward groups for outstanding achievements, your pins can be inlaid with a variety of simulated stones like Diamonds, Emeralds, Rubies, Garnet, etc. They are perfect for years of service awards or for a special fundraising effort. Simulated stones do not add much cost to your pin!
