If you are the head of a tournament organizer, you may not know what processes are applicable to your medals and what facilities your suppliers can offer you, don’t worry, after reading this article you will know how to bespoke medals and communicate with your suppliers.
William is the organizer of a rainbow run program(a running race for fun, people can splash rainbow multi colour paint on others. ) with over 1000 participants. He has been working with us on custom medals for over 3 years. Sometimes he bespoke cast medals, sometimes custom insert medals.
We initially reached out to him, and it just so happened that he was also looking for a better supplier, so he sent us his logo and the design (if you don’t have one, don’t worry, most suppliers will provide a free design service). Tips: A shiny gold medal is more likely to attract more registrants.
At that time he did not tell us which processes he would like to use. (If you don’t have an idea, just send your logo to us, and we will offer free design service.)
Así que le dimos una lista de los procesos más adecuados basada en nuestra experiencia.
Consideró que merecía la pena probar estos procesos, y pasamos al siguiente paso del debate.
Por supuesto, si ya ha decidido qué procesos va a utilizar, también puede comunicárselo directamente al proveedor.
This article will list the massive range of the processes commonly used on medallions and explain how they work for your reference. If you want bespoke medals to be more special, you can use multiple processes at the same time!

Now, let’s talk about size, shall we? Size matters, but not in the way you think!
A bigger medal doesn’t necessarily mean it’s better unless you’re compensating for something, of course. The medal size should be determined based on the design and the purpose of the medal.
Based on William’s design, we suggested the size of the medal is 3″. William wanted a larger size, but to custom perfect medalla, he might have to reduce the process a bit, which might not work well, so William took our advice.
For instance, if you want custom personalised medals, you might want to go for a larger size to make it more eye-catching. On the other hand, if you’re making a medal for a charity event, a smaller size might be more appropriate to keep the costs down.
But don’t worry, we won’t leave you hanging on this one. We’ll help you choose the right size for your medal based on your design, budget, and logo. And if you’re not sure, we’ll guide you through the whole process. So, let’s work together to make your medal stand out, no matter the size!

To be in line with the Rainbow Run theme, we are in complete agreement with William’s goal of selecting bespoke printed ribbons due to their ability to incorporate gradient colours.
Hay menos opciones para los accesorios de las medallas que para las insignias, lo que se ajusta al escenario de aplicación de las medallas.
In our 10+ years of medal making, the vast majority of medal ribbons are made with either Fabric Ribbon or Satin Ribbon, Satin Ribbon can be printed with gradient colours and your event logo, while Fabric Ribbon is a bit plainer.
Customers also chose other accessories such as medal ribbons in the past, such as Ball Chains, ropes, and chains, you can request other accessories, and we will communicate with the appropriate manufacturer.
Llegando al paso del embalaje, hay un viejo dicho en China que dice que las personas dependen de la ropa y los caballos de las sillas de montar, lo que significa que las personas tendrán un aspecto extraordinariamente espiritual cuando lleven un vestido decente; los caballos tendrán un aspecto especialmente empinado y hermoso cuando vayan equipados con un par de elaboradas mantas de silla de montar.
