Recommendations
If you want the most formal, prestigious plaque
Crystal is the best choice — thick, clear and optically bright, and it can be laser-etched inside the glass itself. Ideal for major ceremonies, honours and executive-level awards.
If you need an affordable plaque in quantity
Acrylic answers best: lightweight, cut to any shape you like, printable edge to edge in full colour, and the easiest to budget once you are ordering dozens.
Choose a plaque that fits the occasion — material, engraving method and budget
A plaque is the award that stays on someone’s desk for years. Getting the material and the engraving right matters as much as the design. Here is what to settle before you order.
How do the materials differ?
- Crystal — the most prestigious look: thick, clear and satisfyingly heavy, with 3D laser etching inside the glass. Suited to honours and formal ceremonies.
- Wood — warm and classic, with grain that is different on every piece. Popular for government bodies, schools and awards that want gravitas.
- Acrylic — modern and light, cut to any outline, printable in full colour, and the easiest to keep on budget at volume.
- Metal and ABS — durable and able to carry an engraved plate; suited to outdoor use or wall mounting.
Laser engraving or colour printing?
- Laser engraving — crisp and permanent; it will not peel or fade. Best for recipient names, citations and line-art logos.
- UV colour printing — reproduces brand colours and gradients exactly. Best on acrylic and anywhere the design needs colour.
- You can combine both — print the logo in colour, engrave the name separately, so individual names change without reprinting the whole face.
- Send vector artwork for the best result. Our graphics team lays it out and sends a proof before anything goes into production.
What size and how many?
- Follow the hierarchy — a grand prize or honour should be visibly larger than a general award.
- Follow the text — long organisation names and multi-line citations always need more width than you expect.
- Follow the handover — if it is held for photographs on stage, comfortable weight and size beat sheer scale.
- Order a small surplus — cheaper than opening a new production run for one misspelt name or a late addition.
Do I need presentation boxes?
- Yes, if the plaque travels — fabric or velvet boxes stop crystal chipping and protect the finish in transit.
- It lifts the ceremony — opening a box on stage gives the moment noticeably more weight.
- Match the colour to the event — several are available, and they can be ordered alongside the plaques in one job.
- Boxes start once the plaque design is confirmed, so plan both together rather than at the end.
