Are your woods kind to the environment?
Preserving our planet’s trees, woodlands and forests is imperative, which is why all the wood that we use comes from sustainable, responsibly managed woodlands.

We only ever use fast-growing species of trees like Maple, Cherry and Walnut as these are the most sustainable. These woods are removed at the rate of their growth which means that the woodlands, from which they originate will retain their supply and characters indefinitely.

How thick are your woods?
Our veneered MDF is 4mm thick.

What does each wood look like?
Our Maple wood is the lightest in colour, with a light golden appearance. Our cherry wood is next, with a slight reddish hue to the wood.

Maple and Cherry have the lightest grains and smoothest textures.

Our Walnut wood is the darkest of all of the woods and has the heaviest, deepest grain. Remember to always orders samples to see if each material will work with your designs.

Please note that wood is a natural material which means that the colour, grain, and texture of each sheet will be different from the next. This should be taken into consideration when using any of our woods.

What is a locking pin back?
A locking pin back is a secure way of attaching your metal pin badges to garments. The locking mechanism on these clutches ensures that your pins won't detach, unless you lift the locking mechanism.

Are the backing cards single or double sided?
Either. If you submit double sided artwork we'll print your backing cards double sided, with a different design on each side. If you only submit a single side design, we will produce your backing cards single sided.

Are your backing cards and clear display bags environmentally friendly?
Yes. Our backing cards are made from recycled card stock and our clear display bags are made from vegetable starch and are biodegradable and compostable.

How long do I have to submit my artwork?
