Discover the Craftsmanship Behind Custom Metal Medals: Process, Quality, and Versatile Uses

1. The Art of Crafting Metal Medals

Creating a high-quality metal medal requires a combination of skilled craftsmanship, advanced machinery, and strict quality control. The process begins with a design—either provided by the client or created by our in-house designers based on your needs.

Common materials used:

• Zinc alloy

• Brass

• Iron

• Stainless steel

• Copper

Each material offers different textures, weight, and finishing possibilities. Zinc alloy is especially popular for its flexibility in design and cost-effectiveness.

2. The Production Process

Here’s how we transform raw metal into beautiful, customized medals:

Step 1: Mold Making
A custom mold is created using CNC engraving or hand-sculpted tools based on the approved design.

Step 2: Die-Casting or Stamping
Depending on the material and design, the medal is either stamped (for thinner medals) or die-cast (for thicker, 3D designs).

Step 3: Polishing
The surface is polished to remove imperfections and prepare it for finishing.

Step 4: Plating
Common plating options include gold, silver, bronze, antique finishes, black nickel, and two-tone plating.

Step 5: Coloring (Optional)
Soft enamel, hard enamel, or printed colors can be added to enhance details.

Step 6: Attachment & Ribbon
The medal is assembled with the ribbon or lanyard. Custom ribbon printing is also available.

Step 7: Quality Control & Packaging
Each medal is inspected and carefully packaged to ensure it arrives in perfect condition.
