Custom enamel pins are one of the most popular corporate event gifts and brand keepsakes in Singapore — small, collectible, and endlessly customisable. Patch&Bagel produces custom enamel pins from a minimum order of 50 pieces (SGD $320 for 50, $520 for 100), in hard or soft enamel with a range of metal platings, each with a free digital proof and roughly 2–3 week production before shipping. This guide covers why they work, hard vs soft enamel, cost and lead time, and how to order for an event or brand drop.
Standing out at corporate events matters, and enamel pins offer a personalised touch that generic giveaways don't. They serve as both a functional gift and a memento, reminding recipients of the event and your brand long after they've left.
Why Choose Custom Enamel Pins?
Custom enamel pins offer an array of possibilities when it comes to design and customisation. Whether you're seeking an elegant touch for a black-tie gala or a fun, quirky keepsake for a casual networking event, enamel pins can be tailored to match any theme. With custom enamel pins from Patch&Bagel, the process is straightforward: share your vision, and 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 (SGD $320 for 50, $520 for 100), with per-pin pricing dropping as volume increases. Every order includes a free digital proof before production, and typical turnaround is around two to three weeks after proof approval, plus shipping. For event gifting, confirm 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 enhances the attendee experience and strengthens your corporate image. Enamel pins can be branded with your logo or event theme, making them a powerful tool for marketing and brand recognition, while the personal touch fosters appreciation and loyalty.

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.
