Crystal awards are typically personalised with laser engraving for a crisp, permanent finish, while trophies and plaques often use engraved plates, direct engraving or full-colour print depending on the surface and budget, and medals may be engraved, printed or enamel-filled for bold designs. For reliable reproduction, supply your logo as a vector file (AI, EPS or print-ready PDF), and share any Pantone references if colour accuracy matters. We’ll confirm the printable/engraveable area, recommend a suitable position, and flag if very fine lines or small text need simplifying for clarity.

Awards and trophies create a tangible moment of recognition that feels more meaningful than a standard giveaway, because it celebrates a specific achievement with a keepsake people tend to display. Crystal awards and quality trophies are often used for top-performer and leadership accolades, plaques suit formal milestones such as long service or retirement, and medals are great for team challenges, charity events and training completions. Adding names, dates and award titles makes the gesture personal and credible, while consistent branding across the set helps reinforce your values and culture during presentations and in follow-up photos and communications.

The simplest approach is to provide one final, clearly labelled spreadsheet showing exactly what should appear on each item, with separate columns for name, award title, department (if needed) and date, plus a reference to the product type and quantity. This reduces copy-and-paste errors and makes it easier to keep formatting consistent across crystal awards, plaques and medals. We can help you standardise line breaks and text hierarchy so the whole collection looks cohesive, then share a visual proof for approval before production.
