Design draft related issues

Design draft format:
Design drafts usually require source file formats such as AI, CDR, PDF, etc., which can ensure the clarity and editability of design patterns.If there is no original design, high-resolution images can be provided as a reference.
Pattern requirements:
Badge patterns should be simple and elegant, avoiding overly complex designs, as badge sizes are limited and complex designs may be difficult to present in detail.Pay attention to the thickness of the lines, as overly thin lines may only appear as metallic colors (such as gold or silver) in badges and are difficult to color.

Material and Craftsmanship

Material selection:
Common materials for badges include copper, iron, aluminum, zinc alloys, etc. Copper is further divided into bronze, brass, and purple copper. The prices, weights, and textures of different materials have their own characteristics, and customers need to choose according to their actual needs.
Process selection:
The baking paint process is commonly used, which is economical and brightly colored. Imitation enamel craftsmanship is of a higher level, with fuller and more textured colors. You can also choose electroplating (such as gold, silver, etc.), coloring (baking paint, imitation enamel, etc.), laser and other processes according to your needs.

Color and Electroplating

Color selection:
The customer needs to clarify the color requirements for the badge, and be aware that some bright colors may not be achievable in actual production. Standard colors are usually compared using Pantone color cards. If gradient color effect is required, flat printing technology may be needed, and the materials are mostly bronze or stainless steel.
Electroplating instructions:
Electroplating colors generally include gold, silver, etc., and manufacturers may arrange them according to materials such as imitation gold and nickel. If genuine gold or silver plating is required, special instructions are needed. Special electroplating effects such as antique gold, antique silver, and antique copper can also be selected.

Accessories and Packaging

Accessory selection:
The accessories of badges include spikes, pins, keychains, medal ribbons, tie clips, etc. Most accessories are soldered, with some requiring silver soldering. Customers can choose according to their needs.
Packaging instructions:
The normal packaging is usually OPP bags. If you need high-end packaging, there are various options such as plastic boxes, paper boxes, velvet brocade boxes, wooden boxes, etc., with different prices.

Time and Price

Production time:
The time for customizing badges varies depending on the quantity and complexity of the process, usually around 15-20 days. The sampling time is generally 7-10 days, depending on the complexity of the product design.
Price factor:
The price is influenced by various factors such as material, craftsmanship, quantity, accessories, packaging, etc. Customers need to choose according to their budget.
