Lapel Pin Types - Offset Printed Pins

why use offset printed pins?

Offset printed pins are a type of custom pin that utilizes offset printing technology to create detailed and colorful designs. Unlike enamel pins, where colors are separated by metal lines and individually filled, offset printed pins allow for the seamless integration of full-color images, gradients, and intricate details. Offset printed pins and soft enamel pins are two distinct types of custom pins with different manufacturing processes and visual characteristics. The design is printed directly onto the surface of the pin using a digital printing process similar to traditional offset printing. This method allows for full-color designs without the need for color separation. Offset printed pins have a smooth and flat surface with a glossy finish, similar to a high-quality printed photograph. Offset printing is often a cost-effective option for designs with multiple colors, as there is no need for individual color separation plates. 

 

 

pin design flexibility

Offset printed pins are the ideal choice for capturing intricate designs, including detailed logos, photographs, and illustrations. With the ability to represent subtle color shifts, fine lines, and complex patterns, offset printed pins offer a precision that may be challenging to achieve with other pin-making techniques. Utilizing state-of-the-art printing technology, these custom offset printed pins are shaped using a trimming tool once the color is set, allowing for highly versatile and unique designs. If you're seeking a versatile and long-lasting accessory for any event, including sports team functions or award ceremonies, offset printed pins are an excellent option to consider. The durability and high quality of offset printed pins make them a popular choice for various occasions and needs.

more cost effective

Offset printed pins are often regarded as a more cost-effective option for several key reasons. First, the technology allows for full-color printing without the need for metal lines to separate colors, eliminating the labor-intensive and costly process of hand-filling individual sections. Second, the precision of the offset printing method reduces errors and waste, meaning fewer resources are spent on reprints or adjustments. Third, the method is well-suited for bulk production, with cost savings becoming more significant as the quantity increases, providing substantial economies of scale. Fourth, the ability to adapt to intricate and multicolored designs without additional expenses makes it a budget-friendly choice for complex imagery. Lastly, the quick turnaround time can further reduce costs, making offset printed pins a practical and economical choice for businesses and individuals alike.

Ideal for complex designs

Offset printed pins are particularly ideal for complex designs, and there are several reasons for this suitability. First, the offset printing method allows for full-color reproduction, including gradients and subtle shades, enabling the realization of intricate and multicolored designs without the need for metal lines to separate colors. Second, the precision of this printing technique can accurately capture fine lines, tiny details, and complex patterns, making it perfect for reproducing detailed logos, photographs, or illustrations. Third, the surface finish, often protected with a smooth epoxy resin coating, provides a glossy appearance that enhances the visual appeal of complex images. Fourth, the flexibility of offset printing enables the customization of pins to virtually any shape or design without compromising the integrity of the original image. Lastly, the technology's adaptability means that even the most complicated designs can be faithfully replicated on the pins, making offset printed pins the go-to choice for those looking to translate complex imagery into a tangible and attractive form.

What is the difference between a soft enamel, hard enamel, and offset printed pin?

For soft enamel, you will be able to feel the ridges of the metal separating the colors. For hard enamel, you will have more of a smooth, polished look. For offset printed, we print directly onto the metal and there is a epoxy dome over the top of the pin.

What is the difference between a die struck and die cast pin?

Die struck pins have the designs transferred to a front & back (optional) mold, the raw iron or brass being struck by each mold with enough force to transfer both the raised & recessed areas of the design into the pin metal. Die-Cast molds are fit together and molten zinc metal is injected into the die to create the pin.
