A medal is more than something handed to the winner — it is a symbol of achievement and pride. Choosing the right material, design and budget for your event elevates the whole occasion.

Popular medal types

  • Metal — the most popular: luxurious, strong and well-weighted, ideal for sports and corporate award ceremonies, with crisp engraved logos.
  • Zinc / alloy — great value at a reasonable price while staying beautiful and durable; popular for marathons, school sports and large runs.
  • Acrylic — modern design, lightweight, with crisp printing and budget-friendly; ideal for events and organisations.

How to choose a medal for your event

  • Match the occasion — formal events suit premium metal or alloy; internal or community events suit value-focused options.
  • Consider the number of recipients — large runs call for cost-effective materials that keep their quality.
  • Match the design to the theme — custom designs add real value to a medal.
  • Get the size and weight right — so recipients feel the value and can wear it comfortably.
