<p>More than three fourth a year has passed in 2020, and the second half of the year is the peak season for various units and companies to demand <a href="https://www.nobleaward.com/product-case" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>custom medals</strong></a> to reward individuals or groups for outstanding performance and achievements. So what are the most common medal styles in 2020? </p><p><br></p><p><strong>1. Wooden support + gold leaf/copper plate (horizontal version) medal</strong></p><p>First of all, the so-called wooden support is definitely not solid wood, most of the material is wood-grain leather attached to the board. This is not very optional. The real difference lies in whether the gold or silver one used for writing is made of gold foil or copper plate.</p><p><br></p><p>The material of gold foil is thinner. To put it bluntly, it means "paper" with a certain thickness and metallic texture. The words on it are printed. This kind of material is relatively cheap and has a short production cycle, but it is not suitable for long-term preservation, but if it is just placed in the office, there is no big problem.</p><p><br></p><p>The material of the copper plate is made by pressing real copper plate, which is relatively strong, and the words on it are engraved by chemical etching. This material is relatively expensive, and the production cycle is slightly longer, so it is suitable for long-term preservation.</p><p><br></p><p>The color of the wooden support can be either blackish walnut or brownish red; the color of gold leaf or copper plate can be either golden or silver. Which color and matching to choose, you can decide according to the practice or preference of this unit.</p><p><br></p><p>Gold or silver, which one is your favorite style?</p><p><br></p><p>Finally, let's talk about the style of wooden support. Generally speaking, there are two types, including butterfly edge and straight edge. Of course, the butterfly side is more expensive.</p><p><br></p><p>The size of this<a href="https://www.nobleaward.com/custom-medals" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong> types of medals</strong></a> can be selected relatively large, of course, the larger the size, the more atmospheric, but you should pay attention to the size of the table or tray where the medal is placed.</p><p><br></p><p>Generally speaking, medals with a horizontal pattern of "wood support + gold foil/copper plate" are mostly used for collective honors such as "advanced grassroots organizations". Individual honors rarely use this style.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>2. Wooden pallets + gold foil/copper medals</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Regarding the difference in the types of wooden supports and materials, I won't say more here, it is the same as the horizontal version. It should be noted that the size of the vertical version is relatively small, rarely hanging on the wall, and mostly placed on the table.</p><p><br></p><p>Here, I will give you Amway about the hanging and placement of medals:</p><p>Generally speaking, the medals with the vertical style of "wood support + gold foil/copper plate" are mostly used for personal honor.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>3. Wooden pallets + gold foil/copper plate (special-shaped) medals</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Only unexpected, nothing impossible. If you want to be different, there are of course many weird styles. As for whether it is used or not, you decide by yourself.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>4. Whole body stainless steel plate medal</strong></p><p><br></p><p>As the name suggests, it is a medal made entirely of stainless steel.</p><p><br></p><p>This type of <a href="https://www.nobleaward.com/soft-enamel-custom-metal-medal" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>metal medal</strong></a> is suitable for hanging on the wall of the unit, including internal or external walls, so it is likely to withstand wind and rain. For these reasons, the corrosion resistance of such medals will be very good. In terms of usage, it should not be used as a reward for "two priorities and one first", but more suitable for "listing".</p><p><br></p><p>There are four suggestions for the text of the medal:</p><p><br></p><p>1. The inscription office can be said to be either "some unit" or "some unit committee"; if it is not a superior award, but only a superior departmental award, it can also be called "some unit organization department". Which one to choose should not only be combined with the actual situation, but also follow the management of the unit, and pay more attention to the beauty of the overall layout after it is written.</p><p><br></p><p>2. The signature place can also be printed or engraved with a red official seal, which is slightly more expensive.</p><p><br></p><p>3. Fonts. Generally speaking, bold fonts and Weibei fonts are used more, you can choose by yourself, but you should pay attention to the fonts should not be too thin.</p><p><br></p><p>4. It is not recommended to use the words "awarded: certain unit", because once there is a temporary change in the subject of the award, you will never have time to make a new one.</p>
