Photo Etching

Photo etch lapel pins offer a higher level of detail compared to die-struck soft enamel or die-cast pins. This process involves chemically etching your design into the base metal, followed by hand-filled color application. A thin epoxy coating is then added to protect the colors and enhance durability. Because photo etch pins use a thinner metal and have a lower die charge, they are often a more cost-effective option.

Common Uses:
Photo etch lapel pins are ideal for designs with intricate details, situations where pin weight is a concern, or when budget-friendly pricing is a priority.
