Each piece can be personalized with your logo, recipient name, and achievement details, turning a simple trophy into a lasting symbol of appreciation.
Our range includes classic crystal and glass awards like the Edge Award and Atkins Award, contemporary acrylic designs such as the Argyle Award and Fusion Award, and unique kinetic pieces like the Awards in Motion® Afton and Mova® Globe.

Most custom awards have a minimum order quantity of 10 to 25 units, though some designs may require higher minimums. Contact us for specific product MOQs.
Common methods include laser engraving for crystal and glass, screen printing for acrylic, and UV printing for full-color designs. Each method offers different durability and detail levels.
Production lead time varies by decoration method and order size. Engraving usually takes 5–7 business days, while full-color printing may take 10–14 business days. Rush options are available.
Yes, sample orders are available for most awards. You can order a single unit with or without customization to evaluate quality and appearance before committing to a larger quantity.
Vector files such as AI or EPS are ideal for crisp, scalable results. High-resolution JPEG or PNG files (300 dpi) can also work. Avoid low-resolution images to ensure a professional finish.
When selecting custom awards, the first consideration is the recipient and the occasion. For employee service anniversaries, a timeless crystal award like the Cobalt Award or Renoir Award conveys permanence and respect. For sales achievements or client appreciation, a contemporary acrylic piece such as the Tagus Award or Mercer Award offers a modern feel. Safety programs often benefit from awards that are desk-friendly and easy to display, like the Optical Book or Oslo Clock. Matching the award style to the message reinforces the significance of the recognition.
The material of your promotional awards affects both appearance and durability. Crystal and glass awards provide a classic, high-end look with excellent clarity for engraving. Acrylic awards are lightweight, shatter-resistant, and can be edge-lit for a dramatic effect. Metal awards, such as the Awards in Motion® Global Ring, offer a contemporary, industrial aesthetic. Each material has specific care requirements: crystal may require polishing, while acrylic can scratch if not handled carefully. Consider the environment where the award will be displayed—office desks, lobby shelves, or home offices—and choose accordingly.
Personalization is what transforms a stock award into a branded keepsake. Laser engraving is the most common method for crystal and glass, producing precise, permanent text and logos. Screen printing works well on flat acrylic surfaces for vibrant color logos. For full-color artwork or photographs, UV printing or full-color heat transfer is ideal. Some awards, like the Mova® Globe, offer limited customization areas, so plan your design accordingly. Always request a proof before production to ensure the engraving or print aligns with your expectations.
Bulk custom awards orders typically start at 10 to 25 units, with lower per-unit costs as quantities increase. For large recognition programs (50+ recipients), consider ordering extras to account for future needs or replacements. Wholesale awards pricing is available for quantities over 100, making it cost-effective for company-wide programs. If you need samples before placing a bulk order, most suppliers offer single-unit samples at a reduced cost. Lead times vary by decoration method: engraving is usually faster than full-color printing, so plan your timeline accordingly.
One frequent error is choosing an award that is too large or too small for the intended display space. Always check dimensions and consider the recipient's desk or shelf size. Another mistake is using a low-resolution logo for engraving or printing—vector files (AI, EPS) yield the best results. Also, verify spelling and dates on personalized text before approving the proof. Finally, don't overlook packaging: presentation boxes or pouches add a professional touch and protect the award during shipping. Investing in quality packaging ensures your logo awards arrive in perfect condition and make a strong impression.
