Label Pins

Metal pin badges, medals, honor medals and keychains have long been popular and attractive items in countries such as North America and Europe. Any patterns and texts can be represented by badges to indicate the wearer's identity, occupation, and other marks.

       In the market, there are many materials that can be used for making metal pin badges. Gold has a beautiful color and is an upscale choice for metal pin badge production. Besides, there are also silver, copper, stainless steel, iron, zinc alloy, etc. These materials are not expensive and are quite economical. Zinc alloy and iron materials are the most popular and chosen among metal materials. There are also non-metal materials such as plastic, acrylic, plexiglass, PVC soft rubber, etc. that can be used to make pin badges. Non-metal pin badges have the characteristic of being resistant to water, and thus they are also widely used in daily life.

      Metal materials are the most commonly used materials in the production of lapel pins. Metal lapel pins are made by using metals such as copper, iron, zinc alloy or gold and silver, through certain lapel pins-making processes. At the same time, die-casting and stamping are common processes in lapel pins production. Besides the differences in the properties of different metals, more badges can also be created by adjusting the color and combination of various metals.
