Wholesale Custom Lapel Pins & Enamel Pins
Custom lapel pins are one of the most versatile promotional products for brands, events, and organizations. Sino Awards manufactures soft enamel pins, hard enamel pins, die-struck pins, offset printed pins, and 3D cast pins at factory-direct prices. Based in Dongguan, China, we ship custom pins to clients worldwide.
Whether you need branded pins for a trade show, membership pins for an organization, or collectible enamel pins for retail, we help you choose the right style, finish, and backing to match your design and budget. With Pantone color matching and strict quality control, your pins will look exactly as designed.
Lapel Pin Styles and Materials
We use high-quality metals and proven production methods to create durable, attractive lapel pins. Each pin style offers a different look, feel, and price point to match your project.
Soft Enamel Pins
Most popular style with raised metal lines and textured color fills. Great for detailed designs and tight budgets.
Hard Enamel Pins
Smooth, polished surface where enamel and metal are level. More durable and premium feel.
Die-Struck Pins
No color fill. Raised metal design with sandblasted backgrounds for a classic, elegant look.
Printed Pins
Full-color offset or UV printing for gradients, photographs, and complex artwork.
Finishes, Plating, and Color Options
Custom lapel pins can be plated in shiny gold, shiny silver, antique gold, antique silver, antique bronze, black nickel, or rose gold. We match Pantone colors for enamel fills so your pins align with brand guidelines. Special effects include glow-in-the-dark, glitter, translucent enamel, and sequential numbering.
Backing and Attachment Options
Choose the right backing based on how your pins will be worn or sold. Standard butterfly clutches are lightweight and affordable. Rubber clutches are more comfortable for clothing. Deluxe clutches and locking pin backs offer extra security. Magnetic backings avoid pin holes in uniforms or expensive fabrics. Safety pins work well for large or heavy designs.
Popular Uses and Industries
Custom lapel pins are used across many industries and occasions. Common applications include corporate branding and employee recognition, event badges and conference giveaways, school and university clubs, nonprofit fundraising, sports team membership, political campaigns, military and veteran groups, fashion and retail collectibles, and wedding or anniversary keepsakes.
