Production Process of Our Enamel Pins
Discover the meticulous production process of our enamel pins, from raw materials to finished products. Each step emphasizes our commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.
Raw Material Selection for High-Quality Enamel Pins
We start with the highest quality metal sheets, ensuring a strong foundation for all types of enamel pins, including soft enamel, die-struck, hard enamel, and offset printed pins. Our materials are sourced sustainably, reducing environmental impact and ensuring durability and longevity.
Precision Die-Striking for Detailed Enamel Pin Designs
The die-striking process involves using precision molds to create intricate designs with raised and recessed metal details. This technique is essential for die-struck and hard enamel pins, providing a high level of detail and contrast, especially when paired with antique metal finishes.
Enamel Filling and Color Application
For soft and hard enamel pins, we carefully fill the recessed areas with vibrant enamel colors, ensuring a smooth and polished finish. Each color is precisely applied to maintain the design's integrity, with metal lines separating the colors in soft enamel pins.
Screen Printing for Detailed and Gradient Designs
Screen printing is ideal for designs requiring detailed imprints and gradient effects. This process allows for up to three color imprints on any flat shape, making it perfect for complex designs without the need for metal separation lines.
High-Polish and Antique Metal Plating Options
We offer a range of metal plating options, including high-polished gold, nickel, copper, and bronze, as well as antique finishes. Each plating option enhances the pin's appearance, providing a unique and professional look. Note that hard enamel pins are not eligible for antique metal plating.
Quality Inspection and Sustainable Packaging
Before shipping, each enamel pin undergoes a stringent quality inspection to ensure it meets our high standards. We also prioritize sustainable packaging, using eco-friendly materials to minimize our environmental footprint while delivering your pins safely and securely.

Application Scenarios and Expert Advice
Corporate Branding and Employee Recognition
Custom enamel pins are perfect for corporate branding and employee recognition. Soft enamel pins with high polished gold plating can be used to display company logos, while die-struck pins with antique finishes can commemorate years of service or special achievements. These pins not only enhance corporate identity but also boost employee morale.
Event Souvenirs and Promotions
Enamel pins make excellent souvenirs and promotional items for events. Offset printed pins with full-color designs are ideal for capturing intricate event logos and themes. Screenprinted pins, limited to three colors, are perfect for simple yet impactful designs. These pins serve as memorable keepsakes that attendees will cherish long after the event.

Custom enamel pins are effective tools for fundraising and raising awareness.

Specialty finishes like double metal can add a unique touch, making the pins even more desirable. These pins help spread the message and generate funds for important causes.
Collectibles and Hobbyist Items
Enamel pins are highly sought after by collectors and hobbyists. Soft enamel pins with custom cut-outs and high polished nickel plating can create intricate designs that appeal to collectors. Packaging services, such as custom printed backing cards, enhance the presentation and value of these collectible items. This makes them perfect for limited edition releases and special collections.

Frequently Asked Questions
Soft enamel pins feature raised metal borders with recessed enamel filling, giving them a textured feel. They are economical and versatile. Hard enamel pins, also known as "mock cloisonné," have a smooth, polished finish where the metal and enamel are at the same level, providing a consistent surface. Hard enamel pins are more durable and have a higher perceived value.
Yes, you can add cut-outs to your enamel pin design. A cut-out is an empty area surrounded by metal, and it must be at least 2mm wide to be cut completely through. If the opening is less than 2mm, it will be changed to recessed metal. Be sure to indicate your cut-out preferences on the Order Form or in the design notes.
We offer a variety of metal plating options, including high polished gold, nickel, copper, bronze, antique gold, antique nickel, antique copper, antique bronze, black nickel, black dye plating, and rainbow plating. Specialty platings like custom dyed and antiqued platings may vary slightly due to the handmade nature of the product.
To ensure your offset printed pin design is accurate, submit your artwork cropped around the shape of the design. Avoid enclosing shapes, such as a white background, unless they are part of the final product. If editing is required, an additional fee may incur. Offset printed pins are ideal for designs with gradients and shading.
We offer custom printed backing cards and flap-seal polybags for an additional $1.00 per pin. Backer cards are 2.5" by 3.5" in size, printed in full color on 16pt white matte paper.

Die-struck pins are metal-only pins without enamel filling, featuring raised and recessed metal details. They can have an antique finish for added contrast. Screenprinted pins allow for up to three color imprints on a flat shape. However, due to the printing process, some detail loss may occur, especially for intricate designs.
No, we do not offer Cloisonné pins due to health concerns associated with the materials required for their production. Instead, we provide hard enamel pins, which offer a similar appearance at a lower cost and with fewer health risks.
Yes, double metal finishes are available for both soft and hard enamel pins at an additional cost. However, hard enamel double-metal pins are limited to high polished nickel or gold finishes. Dye platings are not possible, and raised or recessed details cannot change metals without a barrier.
