Tips to choosing the right Enamel badges

Enamel badges are available in the widest range of quality materials and finishes to suit every promotion and price point. The most economic type of enamel badges are promotional quality badges, which are ideal for charity fundraising or as promotional giveaways. Logos can be accurately reproduced and finished with hand coloured pantone matched acrylic enamels, giving the badges a high perceived value despite their low unit cost. At the mid price point are cold enamel badges, which are also known as soft enamel badges. They are die stamped with a cold enamel filling, then all the metal areas are hand polished to give a luxurious feel and quality appearance. The most expensive option is the premium quality enamel badge. The manufacturing process uses a synthetic and vitreous enamel which is harder and of superior quality, producing a more durable finish and accurate reproduction every time. As a result, hard enamel badges are ideal for collectable badge sets and corporate brooches, which demand a premium product.Choosing the right enamel badge will clearly depend as much on the available budget as it will on the marketing objective and the target market. For example, the best enamel badges to be handed out at trade shows and events to raise awareness and generate sales leads are the inexpensive promotional quality badges, whereas hard enamel badges are best suited for employee long service awards.The quality and price options as presented by enamel badges make them an extremely flexible and cost-effective promotional marketing tool.
