Custom Zinc Alloy Enamel Pins for Brands, Events and Teams

A custom zinc alloy enamel pin is a lapel pin die-cast from zinc alloy in the shape of your design, filled with coloured enamel and plated in a metal finish. Because the metal is cast in a mold, zinc alloy holds fine detail, raised edges and 3D shapes that flat stamped pins cannot, and it stays cost-effective as quantities grow.

USTAR has manufactured custom pins since 2003. Our in-house team of 40+ mold designers reviews every artwork before production, so you know what is possible, and what it will cost, before you commit. Orders start from 50 pcs.

Customize Your Zinc Alloy Enamel Pin

You can customize every part of the pin: the base metal, enamel technique, colours, plating, design depth, attachment and packaging.

Hard Enamel vs. Soft Enamel vs. Cloisonné: Which Should You Choose?

Choose soft enamel for the lowest cost and a textured feel, hard enamel for a smooth, polished, premium finish, and cloisonné for ceremonial or award pins. If your artwork has gradients or photographic detail, printed pins are usually the better option.

Enamel TypeLook and FeelBest For
Soft enamelColour sits below the raised metal lines, giving a textured surfaceEvents, giveaways, budget-conscious orders
Hard enamelColour is filled and polished flush with the metal for a smooth, glossy surfaceCorporate, premium and collector pins
CloisonnéTraditional high-end enamel finishAwards, ceremonial and commemorative pins
PrintedArtwork is printed onto the pin surfacePhotographic or gradient designs enamel cannot reproduce

Not sure which to pick? Send us your design and we will recommend the best option for your look and budget.

Why Zinc Alloy Instead of Brass or Iron?

Zinc alloy is usually the best choice when you want 3D detail, complex shapes or double-sided designs at a manageable cost. Brass and iron pins are typically stamped, which suits simpler, flatter designs.

Zinc Alloy (die-cast)

  • Detail and shape: Fine detail, raised edges, 3D and cut-out shapes
  • Cost as quantity grows: Cost-effective after the mold is made
  • Typical use: Brand pins, event pins, collectible and merch pins

Brass or Iron (stamped)

  • Detail and shape: Flatter designs with simpler outlines
  • Cost as quantity grows: Suited to simple, high-volume designs
  • Typical use: Classic flat lapel pins and badges

USTAR also makes pins in brass, bronze, copper, iron, aluminum and stainless iron. Tell us your design and budget and we will recommend the right metal.
