For the Work Itself
A supervisor who keeps a supply on hand can hand someone a pin the same week the good work happens. People wear employee lapel pins beside a name badge, and a growing row shows the work behind them. Teams order employee appreciation pins for a safety record, for a finished certification, for joining a program, and for a staff pride group. A new hire can get a starter pin on day one. A trainer pin tells customers who to ask. Gift cards get spent and emails get deleted, but a pin stays in view for coworkers. The pin stays with them during the shift, and coworkers ask what it is for. A pin can make for a nice award you can present for an achievement or a competition.
Soft enamel fills the recesses below the raised metal lines, giving the face a textured feel. Some orders switch to cloisonné for the most durable style, or to die struck for an all-metal pin with an antique finish. Each category or level has its own design and mold, and we keep the mold on file for reorders.

Ceremony
for Leaders
A values campaign closes with a short ceremony for its leaders. Each leader gets a pin with the initiative on it. They put it on before the group photo. Extras go to anyone who missed the ceremony.
Lasting
Recognition
A pin keeps the recognition with someone long after the moment has passed. The people they work with can still see it on an ordinary day. The person who earned it can look down and remember the day it was given.
Certification
Pins
A training class earns a pin when it passes. The pin shows the certification and attaches to the lanyard people already wear at work. The next class gets the same pin from a reorder.

Teams ordering recognition pins usually start with a few practical questions.
Employee recognition pins are custom pins a company gives employees for what they did. One might name a company value the person lived, and another might mark volunteer hours they logged. People passing in the hallway notice the newest one.
The minimum order is 100 pins. Larger counts bring the price per pin down. A gold set and a silver set can ship together, and the pin outline can be shaped like a star or a crest.
Yes. Hospitality Excellence, a Teamwork Award, an employee of the month pin, and an employee of the year pin are separate designs. Each award has its own mold. Copper plating can mark one award, and gold plating can mark another. You reorder only the designs you still need for the next round of recipients.
The mold stays on file for a reorder of the same pin. Next quarter’s winners can receive that design. A change in the wording makes a new design, and that design needs its own mold.
A larger size is the first upgrade people notice. Gold plating can mark the top honor, and silver plating can mark the level below it. Each level is its own design with its own mold.
We do. Our years of service pins cover time in the role, from a first year through the decades after it. If a colleague led a drive this month, that calls for a different pin.
Production takes 3½-4 weeks after the proof is approved, plus a few days in transit. A buyer with an event date should tell their rep the date up front. A slider needs more time than a pin with no moving pieces.
