Corporate gifts

The value of corporate gifts should never be underestimated. Gone are the days when pens were bought in bulk and simply handed out left, right and centre. With a little thought, corporate gifts could become so much more than a simple token – it can become an object that works for you.

When you hand someone the aforementioned pen, they know that it carries no special meaning. The gift feels hollow. But a gift that says you thought about it, immediately carries more value, and has the power to create a positive headspace about your company in that person’s mind. You could have something custom made, or simply engrave the person’s name on it to make it more personal. Gifts that are useful in their profession can also serve as a constant reminder of your company every time they use it. Contact us at Trophy & Medal Boutique and let us help you with corporate gifts that hit home.

Few things in life are as inspiring and motivational as being recognised for your achievements and hard work. It is this level of emotional encouragement that companies aim for when presenting corporate awards, and the winners have usually worked very hard to deserve the award they receive.

• Soft enamel badges are normally used for social events and are cheaper than hard badges.
• Hard enamel badges are robust in design and provide a polished look. The badges are suitable for long term use.
• Printed types are used when the design is too complicated for stamp badges. They come in silver, bronze, and gold. The printed enamel badges can be more colourful than the stamped types.
• Stamped types – normally in gold or silver with metallic finishes and a glossy polished look – suitable for less complicated designs.
• PVC types are made from polyvinyl chloride materials and are extremely soft. These types of badges are normally worn by teenagers for fun.
• Pewter types can be used for complex designs and since pewter lends itself to easy moulding the pewter type is perfect for a modern complex design.
