Custom Printed Pins

We manufacture custom lapel pins in sizes ranging from ½” to 4 inches. Our most popular choice is the 1-inch size, which offers the ideal balance of visibility, fine design detail, and comfortable everyday wear on lapels, hats, and bags.

The key difference lies in the manufacturing method, surface texture, and design complexity: Custom Enamel Pins: Feature recessed metal line work filled with colored enamel paste, producing traditional die-struck metal borders and a classic, tactile finish (available in textured Soft Enamel or smooth Hard Enamel). Best suited for clean line art, bold logos, and solid color blocks. UV Printed Pins: Use direct-to-substrate digital UV printing onto a flat metal or acrylic base, allowing for unlimited colors, seamless gradients, and photorealistic detail without metal separating lines. Best suited for complex artwork, photography, and fast-turnaround orders.

After you approve your digital proof, sample production and mold creation take 2 to 5 days , depending on the size and detail of your design. Once you approve the physical or photo sample, full production and shipping take approximately 10 days . Overall, you can expect to receive your finished order within 2 to 3 weeks of final sample approval.

1-Inch Pins: Include up to 6 colors. Larger Pins: Include up to 9 colors for complex artwork and multi-tone designs.
