Description
Our clear acrylic pin badges are made from 100% recycled and recyclable plastics that have reached the end of their life-cycle and were destined for landfill or incineration.
An environmentally friendlier alternative to enamel pin badges, our acrylic pin badges are digitally printed onto 3mm thick recycled clear acrylic and custom cut to whatever shape you choose, before fixing a sturdy metal pin on the reverse with your choice of fixing.
Recycled acrylic (R-MMA) looks and performs as well as standard virgin acrylic (PMMA) whilst being VOC and HFC free and significantly kinder to the environment.

Recycled Acrylic Merchandise
We now produce an 'Eco' range of acrylic merchandise; manufactured using 100% recycled and recyclable acrylics, that have reached the end of their life-cycle and are destined for landfill or incineration.
Recycled acrylic (R-MMA) looks and performs as well as standard virgin acrylic (PMMA) whilst being completely VOC and HFC free and significantly kinder to the environment.
Our acrylic suppliers are auto-sustainable and power their production facility using waste products from their manufacturing processes.
All our acrylics, both ‘Eco’ and ‘regular’ are collected by our suppliers and recycled into R-MMA. This has eliminated our acrylic waste.
