Making Custom Silk Screen Pins
Silk Screen Lapel Pins are a great choice for companies who must strictly maintain their branding standards and achieve perfect reproduction of their logo colors, without using metal outlines to hold in filled enamel or cloisonné colors. This pin style uses a 0.8mm pin blank and screens your design onto the pin one color at a time. All solid colors are producible, but an offset printed pin will be most suitable, if gradients are needed. A silk screen pin is a great choice when corporate branding guidelines do not allow for metal borders found in the soft enamel or cloisonné lapel pins.
There is a $19.00 silk screen setup charge for this style of pin, which is definitely something to keep in mind if your quantity is low, and you are looking for the best value. An optional epoxy protective coating (dome) can then be applied to protect the silk screened colors from fading, chipping, or cracking over time.
Another compelling application of a silkscreen is in its use on top of a cloisonné pin. Silkscreens on cloisonné pins are used for three main reasons. The first is to gain the ability to have two colors touching, without a metal stroke, in a specific part of the pin, while retaining the traditional cloisonné style in the remainder. The second is to achieve exceedingly fine levels of detail in pin design; text can be made even smaller while remaining legible if a silkscreen is utilized. The third and most popular use is to create years of service or employee pins that have customized years, dates, or award titles. Opting for a silkscreen-cloisonné hybrid is best when doing these types of pins, since the same mold can be used to create the base pin. After the cloisonné has cured, the silkscreens can be applied to achieve the most budget-conscious final step in customization.
