Nametag

Custom epoxy metal name badges provide a clear and professional way to identify employees, volunteers, event organizers and customer-service teams. Each badge can display a company logo, employee name, job title, department or event role.

The rectangular shape provides a useful printing area for both branding and identification. The metal base gives the badge a stronger and more polished appearance than a basic plastic or paper name tag.

These custom badges are suitable for offices, hotels, restaurants, retail stores, healthcare facilities, schools, conferences and exhibitions. They can also be used by temporary staff and volunteers during special events.

Three Rectangular Size Options

The product page shows three sizes:

• 2.75 × 0.75 inches, approximately 70 × 19mm

• 2.25 × 0.50 inches, approximately 57 × 13mm

• 2.75 × 1.25 inches, approximately 70 × 32mm

The 2.75 × 0.75-inch size is selected in the screenshot. It offers enough space for a logo and one line of text, such as an employee name or event role.

The smaller 2.25 × 0.50-inch option suits simple names, departments or short titles. The larger 2.75 × 1.25-inch badge provides more room for a logo, employee name and job title.

The website currently writes the second size as 0.50 × 2.25 inches. If the badge is displayed horizontally, the width should appear first for consistency.

Full-Color Custom Printing

The gallery shows badges with logos, colored backgrounds and text, indicating that full-color printing is available. This allows customers to match their company branding and reproduce detailed logos.

The badge may include a solid background color, gradient, logo, employee name and position. High contrast between the text and background will make names easier to read.

A light background can work well with dark text, while white lettering may stand out against darker brand colors. Avoid using very thin fonts or small wording that may become difficult to read on the finished badge.

Clear Epoxy Protective Coating

A clear epoxy layer appears to cover the printed front of the badge. This coating creates a smooth, glossy and slightly raised surface.

The epoxy helps protect the artwork from light scratches, fingerprints and ordinary handling. It may also make printed colors appear brighter and give the badge a polished appearance.

The website should clearly state whether the epoxy covers the full front or only selected areas. Customers should also confirm whether the coating is water-resistant and whether it can handle regular cleaning.

Unless specifically tested, the badge should not be described as waterproof or suitable for strong chemicals.

Gold- or Silver-Tone Metal Finishes

Gold and silver finishes are shown as free options. The gold-tone finish creates a warm and traditional appearance, while the silver-tone finish provides a clean and modern look.

Gold may suit hospitality, awards and formal corporate environments. Silver can work well for technology companies, retail stores, healthcare and general staff identification.

The wording “Gold Plate” and “Silver Plate” may suggest that the badges use valuable solid metals. “Gold-tone finish” and “silver-tone finish” are clearer unless the exact plating material is confirmed.

Add Names, Titles and Departments

A professional name badge may include:

• Employee name

• Job title

• Department

• Company logo

• Branch or location

• Staff identification number

• Event role

• Volunteer position

• Short company message

The page should confirm whether every badge can have a different employee name. This is known as variable-name printing and may include additional setup or handling charges.

Customers ordering several personalized badges should provide a clear spreadsheet containing the exact name, title and quantity for each person.

Safety-Pin Attachment

The safety-pin attachment is shown as a free option. It provides a simple way to attach the badge to shirts, jackets, aprons and fabric uniforms.

A pin attachment is suitable for many everyday applications, but it may leave a small hole in delicate clothing. Staff should also take care when attaching or removing the badge.

The website should display a clear image of the back so customers understand the pin size, position and closing method.

Strong Magnetic Back

A strong magnetic attachment is available for an additional $0.85 per badge. Magnetic backs allow the badge to be worn without pushing a pin through the fabric.

This option is useful for formal shirts, jackets, hotel uniforms and other clothing where customers want to avoid holes. It can also make the badge easier to attach and remove.

Magnets should not be used by people with pacemakers or certain implanted medical devices without professional guidance. They should also be kept away from magnetic cards and sensitive electronics.

RAFFLESTAG should include a clear safety notice with magnetic name badges.

Artwork Preparation

Customers can upload artwork files up to 10MB. Vector AI, EPS, SVG or editable PDF files are recommended for company logos, icons and text.

A high-resolution transparent PNG may also be used. Avoid screenshots, compressed messaging-app images and low-resolution files because they may look blurry after printing.

Request the correct template for the selected badge size. Keep names, titles and logos inside the safe area and away from the outer edges.

All spelling, capitalization and job titles should be checked carefully before production.

Preparing a Personalized Name List

For badges containing individual employee names, prepare a simple spreadsheet with one person per row. Suggested columns include:

• Employee name

• Job title

• Department

• Badge size

• Metal finish

• Attachment type

• Quantity

Write every name exactly as it should appear. RAFFLESTAG should provide digital proofs for personalized badges before production begins.

If several names are long, the font size may need to be adjusted so each name fits comfortably.

Minimum Order Quantity

The product page shows a minimum order quantity of five pieces. This is suitable for small teams, new employees and event staff.

Customers should confirm whether all five badges may contain different names or whether the minimum applies separately to each design.

For repeat orders, ask whether existing artwork and templates can be reused. This may make it easier to order badges for new employees later.

Ideal Uses for Epoxy Metal Name Badges

Custom metal name badges are suitable for:

• Office and corporate employees

• Hotels and hospitality teams

• Restaurants and cafés

• Retail and customer-service staff

• Healthcare and wellness centers

• Schools and education providers

• Exhibitions and conferences

• Volunteers and charity workers

• Security and event teams

• Membership and association programs

A consistent name-badge design can help customers identify staff while strengthening the organization’s professional image.

Packaging and Care

The standard packaging is not shown and should be confirmed. Individual polybags may protect the epoxy surface during storage and delivery.

Clean the badge gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid rough materials, strong chemicals and sharp objects that could scratch the epoxy surface.

Store magnetic and pin attachments separately when not in use to prevent damage to the printed front.

How to Order Custom Epoxy Metal Name Badges

Enter a quantity of at least five pieces and choose one of the three available sizes. Select a gold- or silver-tone finish and choose a safety pin or strong magnet.

Upload artwork up to 10MB and provide all required names, job titles and departments. Include special instructions in the order-notes field.

Review the RAFFLESTAG digital mockup carefully. Check every name, title, logo, color, size and attachment before approving production.
