Custom Sandblast Pins
Crafted with precision, polished to perfection.
Elegant metal pins with a subtle matte texture and brilliant polished highlights — perfect for awards, recognition, and premium branding. Your design becomes jewelry-grade: raised metal shines, recessed areas are softly sandblasted for contrast.
Why Choose Sandblast Pins
When you want a design that quietly flexes, this is it. Custom sandblast pins keep the logo or lettering in glossy raised metal while the background is textured with a fine blast. That light-diffusing surface makes the shiny areas pop! Think “award-worthy” without screaming for attention.
We make the process easy: quick help from a real person, proofs in 1–2 business days, and plating options that nail the look you’re picturing. From employee recognition to membership badges, details matter — and this finish shows them off.
Sandblast vs Other Pin Styles
