The above pricing will serve as a "ball park price" for most customers. Pricing subject to change upon submission of art. If your pin is a different size than shown here please call us or fill out a form on the right for a quote.

Flexibility

The printed pin process offers the customer a great deal of flexibility. With the die struck metal pins, there are a lot of limitations on what you can and can't do with your pin design. With printed pins you can:

• Use photographs
• Print full color
• Make the pin smaller than metal pins

Printed pins are cheaper than Hard Enamel pins at the 3000pc level and higher. So for projects where you need a lot of pins, this process might be a great option for you.

Printed vs. Die Struck

Printed pins, as the name suggests are made by printing your design on a piece of paper and mounting it to a metal back. The design is then covered with a clear epoxy dome.

Die struck pins are stamped from metal and require approximately 8 more steps in the manufacturing process.
