Printed Gold Metal Medals With Lanyard

Name: Printed Gold Metal Medals With Lanyard
Brand: BEU Gifts

Product Overview

What This Product Is

When a medal has to carry a full-colour logo, a photograph or a gradient, printing does what enamel cannot. These are 80 mm zinc alloy medals with a 2D plated face and the artwork printed on, which keeps participation medals affordable at volume without dropping to a plastic disc.

Key Benefits

Printing reproduces gradients, photographs and multi-colour logos directly.
2D tooling costs less than 3D relief, which shows at participation volumes.
Gold plating around the printed area keeps the medal reading as metal.
Lanyards fitted before shipment.

Comparison

Against the soft enamel medals in this range, printing wins on colour complexity and cost and loses on depth and durability. Printed medals suit participation, enamel and cast medals suit the podium.

Use Guide

Supply print artwork at high resolution; printing shows detail that enamel would lose.
Check the printed colour against your brand reference on the sample.
Store away from direct sun before the event, as with any printed surface.

Certifications

The company holds an export certificate and has shipped to United States, Russia, Europe. No further product certification is published for this item, so anything your market requires should be confirmed before ordering. Product certification: TBC
