It can be a simply sketch or an existing logo and we will create vector artwork that can be used to make a number of different products. There are a lot of options when it comes to designing your own custom pins.
If you need jewelry quality pin badges we suggest going with hard enamel. They are also called cloisonne and are a bit more expensive, but they are worth every penny if you need a very high quality pin. These pins are struck from brass or copper and then plated with your choice of plating. All of the colors are then filled with a special enamel or glass, and then baked until the enamel or glass has melted and formed into the recessed areas of the pin perfectly. Then the pins are buffed flat on a large buffing stone. This makes the surface of the colors and the metal perfectly smooth and even, meaning that the surface of these pins is smooth to the touch without having to add an epoxy coating.
The most popular, and cost effective pin is soft enamel. Whatever your pin needs might be, chances are that a die-struck soft enamel pin will be the perfect pin for you. These pins are made from a metal blank, usually made of iron, that is die-struck with your design and then plated. We have many different plating options for you to choose from. After plating, the recessed areas of the pins that need to be colored are filled with colored enamel and left to dry. Don’t let the name fool you, once the enamel is dry, it is hard, very durable and will look great for decades to come.
