Custom enamel pins have become one of the most popular corporate event gifts and brand keepsakes in Singapore — small, collectible, and endlessly customisable. This guide covers why they work, the styles available, costs and lead time, and how to order them for an event or brand drop.
In today's business landscape, standing out at corporate events is more crucial than ever. Companies are looking for unique and memorable ways to leave a lasting impression on their clients, partners, and employees. Custom enamel pins have emerged as a creative and versatile solution in corporate event gift procurement. Unlike standard giveaways, these pins offer a personalized touch that resonates with recipients, making them ideal for custom gifts that embody individuality and corporate identity.
Why Choose Custom Enamel Pins?
Custom enamel pins offer an array of possibilities when it comes to design and customization. Whether you're seeking an elegant touch for a black-tie gala or a fun and quirky keepsake for a casual networking event, enamel pins can be tailored to match any theme. They serve as both a functional gift and a memento, reminding recipients of the event and your brand long after they've left.
With custom enamel pins from Patch&Bagel, the process of creating unique pins is straightforward and customer-oriented. To start, simply reach out to them with your vision. You can even browse their Instagram highlights at @patchandbagel for inspiration from past projects. This hands-on approach ensures that every pin is crafted to meet your exact needs.
Hard Enamel vs Soft Enamel
There are two main finishes, and the choice affects both look and price:
- Soft enamel — the metal lines sit raised above recessed colour, giving a textured, tactile surface. It's slightly more affordable and shows fine detail well.
- Hard enamel — the enamel is polished flush with the metal for a smooth, jewellery-like finish. It feels more premium and is the usual choice for high-end corporate gifts.
Metal plating (gold, silver, black nickel, copper) further changes the feel, and add-ons like glitter enamel, screen-printed detail, or a custom backing card can lift the perceived value for gifting.
Cost, MOQ & Turnaround
Custom enamel pins at Patch&Bagel start from a minimum of 50 pieces, with per-pin pricing dropping as volume increases. Every order includes a free digital proof before production, and typical turnaround is around two–three weeks after proof approval, plus shipping. For event gifting, we recommend confirming your design at least 4–5 weeks ahead of the date to stay comfortable.
The Benefits of Custom Gifts in Corporate Settings
Incorporating custom gifts into your event strategy not only enhances the experience for attendees but also strengthens your corporate image. Custom gifts like enamel pins can be branded with your logo or event theme, making them a powerful tool for marketing and brand recognition. Moreover, the personal touch of a custom gift fosters a sense of appreciation and loyalty among recipients.

Design Tips for Pins That Get Worn
- Keep it bold. Pins are small — simple, confident shapes and clear colour separation read far better than fine detail.
- Send vector artwork (AI or PDF) so lines reproduce cleanly in metal.
- Lock in colours with Pantone codes for accurate, repeatable matching across reorders.
- Pick the right size — around 25–40 mm suits most lapel and lanyard pins.
