What Are Custom Military Medals?

Custom military medals are personalized commemorative or recognition pieces created for an organization, event or approved program. Unlike government-issued decorations with fixed official standards, a custom medal can use original shapes, dates, unit or association wording, commemorative themes and event-specific artwork to mark reunions, anniversaries, memorials, academy recognition and other authorized occasions.


For projects that require deeper sculpting, portraits, aircraft, ships, shields or dimensional emblems, our custom 3D medals capability can be combined with antique plating, enamel and other finishes.


Important Note on Insignia and Official Marks: Protected military insignia, emblems, seals and official marks should only be used when the customer has the appropriate permission or authorization. QIYI focuses on original custom manufacturing and does not present custom commemorative products as government-issued decorations.

Types of Custom Military Medals

Custom Army Medals
Custom Navy Medals
Custom Air Force Medals

Custom Army Medals

Army-themed commemorative medals can feature approved unit emblems, shields, eagles, laurel elements, service dates, reunion wording, academy identity or other original artwork. Deep relief and antique finishes work especially well for traditional, heritage-focused designs.

Custom Navy Medals

Navy-themed designs can use anchors, ships, waves, rope borders, fleet-inspired elements and authorized insignia. Ribbon colors, plating and relief can be coordinated to create a consistent commemorative set.

Custom Air Force Medals

Air-force-themed medals can incorporate wings, aircraft silhouettes, stars, sky motifs, squadron references and approved symbols. 3D relief is useful when aircraft, wings or layered emblems need clear dimensional detail.

FAQ About Custom Military Medals Manufacturer

1
What is the minimum order quantity for custom military medals?
Order quantity can be discussed based on the design, tooling, material and production method. Small commemorative projects and larger bulk orders can be reviewed separately.
2
Can I order matching ribbon drapes with the medals?
Yes. We can coordinate custom ribbon drapes, printed or woven ribbons and compatible attachment fittings with the medal design.
3
Do you provide artwork before production?
Yes. Production-ready artwork is prepared for approval before tooling or mass manufacturing. Key specifications such as size, relief, plating, color, ribbon and back text should be confirmed on the approved version.
4
How long does a custom military medal order take?
Lead time depends on whether new tooling is required, the complexity of the relief, order quantity, finishing, accessories and shipping destination. Rush production can be reviewed for time-sensitive events after the specifications are confirmed.
5
Can you reproduce official military medals or protected insignia?
QIYI specializes in original custom manufacturing for commemorative and recognition projects. If your design includes protected military insignia, emblems, seals or official marks, please confirm that you have the appropriate authorization before production.
6
Can you create antique and 3D military-style finishes?
Yes. Depending on the artwork, we can combine 2D/3D relief with antique gold, silver, bronze or copper-style finishes, enamel, engraving and selected cut-outs.
7
What information should I send for a quotation?
Please send the approved artwork or reference concept, size, thickness, quantity, material or finish preference, ribbon requirements, packaging, target in-hands date and destination. If official marks are involved, include confirmation of authorization as appropriate.
8
What materials are commonly used for custom military medals?
Zinc alloy, brass and iron are common options, depending on the design and production method. Zinc alloy is suitable for complex cast shapes and dimensional relief, while brass or iron may be considered for die-struck designs. Material selection should reflect the required detail, weight, finish and budget.
9
Can custom military medals feature designs on both sides?
Yes. Front and back designs can include original emblems, commemorative dates, mottos and decorative relief. The layout on both sides should be reviewed together with the medal thickness, ribbon connection and any attachment fittings.
10
Can military medals be personalized with names or serial numbers?
Engraved names, service dates, award titles or sequential numbers may be added where the design provides a suitable area. Please specify whether the personalization is identical across the order or different for each medal so the method, cost and production schedule can be reviewed.
11
Can you make medals for unit anniversaries, reunions or retirement ceremonies?
Original custom medals can be developed for unit anniversaries, veteran reunions, retirement presentations and other commemorative occasions. Share the event theme, proposed wording and reference artwork so the design can reflect the purpose of the project.
12
What is the difference between soft enamel and hard enamel for military medals?
Soft enamel sits below the raised metal borders, creating a textured surface. Hard enamel is polished to create a smoother surface that is generally level with the surrounding metal. Suitability depends on the relief, plating and layout, especially when the design includes sculpted 3D details.
13
Can I request a sample before bulk production?
A pre-production sample may be arranged to review the medal’s relief, finish, color and ribbon assembly. Sample availability, tooling charges and additional lead time depend on the project and should be confirmed before the production schedule is finalized.
14
What packaging options are suitable for custom military medals?
Individual protective bags, presentation boxes and display cases may be considered depending on the medal dimensions and presentation requirements. For boxed sets, the insert should accommodate the medal, ribbon drape and any additional components. Packaging availability and customization should be confirmed during quotation.
15
How should custom military medals be stored and cleaned?
Store medals in a dry place and protect them from moisture, direct friction and prolonged contact with chemicals. Use a soft, dry cloth for light cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners or metal polish unless confirmed suitable for the specific plating, enamel and antique finish.
