Features of Puzzle Medal

Design Flexibility

Personalized design and its alignment with the event theme.

Since puzzle medals are not constrained by the size limitations of individual medals, designers have more creative freedom. They only need to showcase unique elements on each medal, and when these distinctive medals are combined, they form a complete medal. Each stage of the competition can be designed according to the elements of that phase, and the medals for each stage will perfectly match the theme of that particular stage of the competition.

A variety of sizes and shapes are available (such as round, square, or custom shapes).

Designers can incorporate iconic elements from each stage of a series of competitions onto the medals, such as mascots, cities, famous landmarks, etc. This allows the medals to be shaped according to these distinctive elements, rather than sticking to the classic round or square designs. These specially shaped puzzle medals can further ignite participants’ enthusiasm and excitement.

Versatility

Puzzle medals are truly a visual delight—each one is so stunning, it’s almost impossible to describe them in words. These medals can be used in a wide variety of events, including various series of sports competitions (triathlons, marathons, cycling, hiking, etc.), and they can also be utilized in corporate or school settings. Since the shape and design of each medal vary with every event, each recipient’s medal is unique, which makes it even more exciting and engaging.

Puzzle medals can also be used for different types of rewards, such as family fun runs, where different age groups receive different medals that, when combined, form a special design. They can also represent a complete set for winners, runners-up, and participation awards (finisher medals), fitting together to create a larger brand logo or the symbol of the competition series.

visual appeal

Apply our rich craftsmanship to your puzzle medals!

We can combine a variety of techniques to showcase different effects—even applying unique craftsmanship to each individual medal. Thanks to the malleable characteristics of zinc alloy, we can create medals with excellent 3D effects. With printing techniques, gradients or multiple colors can be applied to the medals, or we can use premium imitation enamel techniques to highlight the high-end quality of your competition series. These methods not only enhance the visual appeal of the medals but also elevate their overall prestige.

Types Of Puzzle Medal

Jigsaw medals

Each medal stands alone, yet these individual pieces come together to form a complete, unified medal. Whether you’re hosting a series of events, a multi-discipline competition, or simply feel constrained by the design limitations of a single medal—why not consider puzzle medals? These interconnected medals are perfect for igniting participants’ passion.

Puzzle medals are especially fitting for series competitions or team events, as each medal represents a crucial piece of the puzzle that completes the perfect whole. They symbolize unity, making every participant feel like an essential part of the greater picture.

Puzzle Badges

The diverse elements of the puzzle medals offer endless creative possibilities for unique combinations, whether it’s logos, awards, or patterns. Everything can be rearranged and reimagined. Each piece can be fully customized according to your design, ensuring that all the details—from graphics and colors to fonts—are perfectly aligned with your vision.

Scenarios For Puzzle Medal

For high-volume marathon finisher medals, such as those for the 2024 Paris Marathon, cost-effectiveness is key due to the large number of participants. By simplifying the production process and reducing the complexity of the design, we can significantly lower costs while still maintaining visual appeal. For instance, choosing an antique gold finish helps keep costs down while giving the medal an elegant and timeless look.

In virtual races, where participants register online, the medal designs are often more intricate, with more vibrant colors and complex visuals. For these events, we typically use printing techniques to achieve bright, vivid colors, including gradients to create a harmonious color scheme. To enhance the visual impact, additional techniques like glitter, 3D elements, or even LED lights can be incorporated, giving the medal an eye-catching and unique finish.

Why might the Puzzle Medal be more popular among participants?

  1. **Collecting Hobby**: Everyone has a collecting hobby, whether it’s sports cards or blind boxes—products that are incredibly popular in the market. Most people don’t want their puzzle collections to be incomplete.
  2. **Personal Memories**: Each medal represents a piece of personal growth, and no one wants a part of their memories to be missing. As a result, participants strive to earn every medal. When displayed, these medals can spread awareness of your series of events through word of mouth among friends, increasing registration numbers. (It’s worth noting that virtual runs also expand their reach through beautifully designed medals.)

How to Customize a Puzzle Medal?

Selecting Materials for a Puzzle Medal

Common Materials for Puzzle Medals

1.Zinc Alloy

   – Zinc alloy is one of the most widely used materials for making metal medals. If your event is smaller and more high-end, you may opt for brass. Both materials are popular for metal medal production.

   – Advantages: Zinc alloy has a low melting point and excellent fluidity, which helps it fill the mold completely during production, ensuring intricate details are captured. It also boasts high hardness and strength, making it resistant to deformation, wear, and corrosion. Its light weight and rust resistance are due to its low density and minimal iron content.

   – Disadvantages: Poor conductivity and heat dissipation, though these factors don’t significantly affect medal production.

2.Brass:

   – Advantages: More affordable than gold or silver and offers a more premium feel compared to zinc alloy.

   – Disadvantages: Lower corrosion resistance and tends to form an oxidation layer, losing its shine over time.

3.Acrylic Medals:

   – Advantages: No mold fees, high transparency, and strong impact resistance with minimal risk of breaking. It’s eco-friendly and recyclable, making it suitable for environmentally conscious events. Acrylic medals are lightweight, ideal for children’s awards.

   – Disadvantages: Fragile during transport, prone to scratches, and susceptible to aging, turning yellow and brittle over time. It’s also not heat-resistant and can deform under high temperatures.

4.PVC Medals:

   – Advantages: PVC medals can feature a wide range of colors and designs. They are highly durable, resistant to wear, waterproof, and suitable for various environments. PVC is lightweight, flexible, and safer for children’s competitions. It’s also cost-effective for bulk orders due to its affordable material, though mold costs are higher.

   – Disadvantages: Feels cheap due to its light weight, and it deforms easily under high temperatures. PVC may release harmful substances, posing environmental concerns, and its durability is lower compared to metal medals.

5.Crystal Medals:

   – Advantages: No mold costs and offers an exquisite appearance. Crystal medals can refract sunlight beautifully, giving them a luxurious feel. They’re highly customizable through cutting and color printing techniques and have strong durability. Crystal is eco-friendly and commonly used for government and corporate awards.

   – Disadvantages: Fragile and heavy. Crystal medals require thick packaging for safe delivery.

6.Wooden Medals:

   – Advantages: Made from eco-friendly wood with unique natural textures and colors. Wooden medals have no mold costs and are lightweight, reducing shipping costs. Various types of wood are available for selection.

   – Disadvantages: Prone to moisture and flammable.

Weight Considerations

Metal and crystal medals are generally heavier, while wooden, PVC, and acrylic medals are lighter.
