Introduction
Whether you're organizing a marathon, planning a corporate awards ceremony, or need custom challenge coins for your organization, ordering wholesale medals is a cost-effective way to get high-quality custom products. This guide covers everything you need to know.
Types of Custom Medals
Die-Struck Medals
Die-struck medals are created by striking a metal blank with a hardened die under high pressure. This process creates raised and recessed details, giving the medal a classic, premium look. Ideal for awards and commemorative pieces.
Die-Cast Medals
Die-cast medals are made by injecting molten metal into a mold. This process allows for more complex 3D shapes and designs. Perfect for unique, sculptural awards.
Photo-Etched Medals
Photo-etching uses chemicals to etch designs onto metal surfaces. This process is ideal for highly detailed, intricate designs on flat surfaces.
