Imitation & Traditional Cloisonné Pins Cloisonné, or hard enamel pins, are the highest-quality dye-struck pins available. The traditional cloisonné is a hard-fired enamel pin using powdered glass with a limited number of colors. Imitation cloisonné is very similar to
traditional, but is now one of the preferred methods with a smoother surface finish for a more affordable price. These lapel pins can be made to match the full array of Pantone™ colors; the end result is a truly beautiful product.
Dye-Struck Soft Enamel This pin is an excellent choice for 3-D cubic designs or designs requiring fine details. The colors are produced using Pantone colors. If you are looking for a quality pin that's less expensive than a cloisonné, the soft enamel is ideal. All
of the dye-struck, soft enamel pins are polished before coloring; any metal showing has a shiny surface. A thin epoxy covering is optional and recommended to protect the colors.
Stamped Iron Stamped iron is a dye-struck process using iron as the base metal. The style can be electroplated with a full range of metal choices, including gold, brass, nickel, and black nickel. A stamped iron pin is an excellent choice and less
expensive than the other processes.
Photo-Etched Pins Photo-etched pins are made by using a chemical acid to put the recessed areas into the design. These areas are then filled with a full range of Pantone colors. The thickness of the pin is normally .08 mm., but can be made thicker if
requested for a nominal additional charge.
Silk-Screen & Offset Printed Pins Both silk-screen and offset printing are your best solutions for complicated artwork and gradual colors. You can choose from brass with gold or nickel plating, brass without any electroplating, stainless steel, and aluminum without electroplating. In order to avoid scratches, we suggest a clear epoxy coating to
protect the pin. Camera-ready art is required for these processes.
