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.)
Nous lui avons donc fourni une liste des processus les plus appropriés sur la base de notre expérience.
Il a estimé que ces processus méritaient d'être essayés, et nous sommes passés à l'étape suivante de la discussion.
Bien entendu, si vous avez déjà décidé des procédés à utiliser, vous pouvez également en informer directement le fournisseur.
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!
| Émail mou | Fill the paint colour into the products. The surface is linear. |
| Émail dur | Préparer une certaine proportion de peinture et d'autres colles, les introduire dans le produit, et polir la surface à un stade ultérieur pour obtenir l'effet émail. La surface est lisse. |
| Impression UV | Print a pattern on the surface(Suitable for more complex pattern colours or colour gradients) |
| Epoxy | Une couche de colle transparente est ajoutée à la surface du produit pour le protéger. |
| Lueur | En absorbant la lumière, la nuit peut briller |
Transparent Colours | The colour is transparent and the bottom can be seen |
| Découpage | Découper le produit et le déplacer pour obtenir un effet de creux |

| 3D/2D | En forme d'arc ou multicouche / le produit n'a que deux couches concave et convexe |
| Placage | The process of attaching a layer of the metal film to the surface of metal or other material parts by electrolysis. It can prevent corrosion, improve wear resistance, conductivity, and reflective properties, and enhance appearance. And make medals shiny gold in the sun, you can choose shiny gold silver or antique gold silver. |

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 médaille, 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.
Il y a moins d'options pour les accessoires de médailles que pour les insignes, ce qui correspond au scénario d'application des médailles.
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.
En ce qui concerne l'emballage, un vieux dicton chinois dit que les gens dépendent des vêtements et les chevaux des selles, ce qui signifie que les gens ont l'air extraordinairement spirituels lorsqu'ils portent une robe décente ; les chevaux ont l'air particulièrement raides et beaux lorsqu'ils sont équipés d'une paire de couvertures de selle élaborées.
Our personalised medals are also the same. Packaging is all about presentation.
What image do you want to convey to your awards winner, do you want it to be sophisticated, interesting, or valuable, consider the material of your packaging as well as the design, and even any other branding information you want to include.
But don’t forget that the most important thing the packaging needs to be is durable enough to allow for the protection of your personalised medals during shipping and storage.
At the same time, beautiful packaging can make you win in the future, it can impress the awards winner and even create a collecting hobby.
So let’s get creative and make your packaging stand out from everyone else!
We now have at least 6 packaging options for you to choose from. If you want other packaging methods, please send us the pictures, and we will solve it for you once and for all, you don’t need to spend time finding another supplier.
William estime que pour se démarquer des autres événements et mettre en valeur le sien, en laissant une impression durable sur les gens, il a choisi la boîte de velours.
It must be admitted that customised medals with exquisite box packaging can be displayed beautifully, and William’s choice is excellent.
So, you’ve decided on your design sketches, medal sizes, accessories, and even the packaging. Now, it’s time to find a match supplier to make your dream come true. But how do you know who to trust? Look for a supplier with a track record of delivering quality products on time and being responsive to your needs and concerns. You can also ask for references or look for reviews from other customers.
Remember, cheap isn’t always the best, with production time, shipping time, etc. involved in the middle – when it comes to something as important as your custom medallion, quality and reliability are key. Don’t miss your event time!
Determining your budget is like playing a game of Tetris – making sure everything fits together perfectly is the key to your success or failure! But fear not, my dear reader, for there are many options to fit every budget range and sometimes other processes can be used appropriately to achieve the same results.
Generally speaking, shiny gold silver and antique gold silver medal designs will be cheaper.
But don’t fear, my dear reader, for there are many options to suit every budget. From simple and affordable to extravagant and luxurious, there is a medal design option for everyone.
