Custom Awards
Designed From Scratch.
Manufactured to Represent Achievement.
We manufacture custom awards to match your brand, event, and recognition goals.
When standard plaques and trophies are not enough, our Custom Awards team designs and manufactures fully original recognition pieces. From concept renderings to final production, we build awards that reflect your brand, milestone, and message with precision and craftsmanship.
From initial concept to final production, our team manages the entire process so your recognition piece feels intentional, substantial, and worthy of the achievement it represents.

Case Study: On-Brand at Every Level
A national brand with a highly specific PMS color came to us to ensure color-matching across acrylic, glass, metal, and UV print processes so that every award from Sales Awards to Service Awards reflected the same brand standard.
The result was a unified recognition program in which every piece, from milestone awards to sales performance trophies, reinforced the brand with precision and consistency.
Custom Awards FAQ
Our team handles the design and production so you can focus on the recognition experience.
What is the minimum order quantity for custom awards?
Minimum quantities vary depending on materials, production method, and budget. The ideal range for custom award manufacturing is 25 pieces, but with the right budget and recognition in mind, a single piece is often accomplishable. If you need a limited number of pieces, we can advise on the most cost-effective approach.
How long does a custom award take to produce?
Most custom award projects require approximately 3 to 6 weeks after final design approval. Larger quantities, complex materials, or international production may extend timelines. If you have a firm event date, we will structure the design and production schedule around it.
Do you provide design concepts or renderings?
Yes. Our team develops detailed 3D renderings within 3 to 5 business days after project alignment. Renderings allow you to review structure, materials, and decoration details before production begins.
Can you match our brand colors?
We can closely match brand colors across materials and decoration methods, including UV print, metal finishes, and acrylic layers. We can even create custom crystal colors. Exact PMS matching may vary slightly depending on material type, but we work to achieve the closest visual alignment possible.
What materials can be used in a custom award?
Custom awards can incorporate crystal, glass, acrylic, metal, wood, stone, resin, and mixed materials. We will recommend materials based on your desired look, budget, and durability requirements.
Do you offer prototypes or samples?
For complex or high-volume projects, prototype samples may be available prior to full production. Timing and cost depend on the structure and materials involved. We will advise whether a prototype is recommended for your specific project.
Can custom awards include logos, 3D objects, or embedded elements?
Yes. We frequently design awards with dimensional logos, embedded components, layered construction, edge lighting, and custom structural bases. These elements are engineered during the concept phase to ensure stability and finish quality.
How is pricing determined?
Pricing is based on size, materials, decoration method, structural complexity, and quantity. We design with your target budget in mind and present options that balance impact and cost efficiency.
Can you create a completely original shape?
Yes. We design fully custom silhouettes, including anniversary numbers, architectural forms, industry symbols, abstract shapes, logos, and mascots. Awards are engineered for stability and display while maintaining design integrity.
Do you handle packaging and shipping?
Yes. We manage inspection, protective packaging, and coordinated delivery. Custom packaging solutions are available for executive presentations or premium events.
