Hard Enamel Pins / Epola / Imitation Cloisonné

Hard enamel pins are arguably the highest quality pins available.  Sometimes called 'epola pins' or even 'imitation cloisonné', hard enamel pins are a long lasting and durable choice for corporate pins, convention pins, event pins, fraternity pins, sorority pins or political pins. 

Hard enamel pins are die-struck and then color is applied with a small brush.  Pins are characterized by thin metal lines separating each the colors on your pin.  Hard enamel pins are heated to a high temperature and then polished, creating a bright, smooth, hard enamel finish.  For an embossed look and feel, choose Soft Enamel pins instead.

Benefits of Hard Enamel pins
  • Very high quality finish & appearance - view plating options
  • Very high perceived value - durable & smooth polished finish
  • PMS (Pantone) color matching available
  • Bright, vivid colors will not fade over time
  • Any custom shape is possible
  • Option:  add great detail with screen printing on the finished pin.
    Add $0.15 per pin and a $50.00 setup for this option.
Disadvantages of Hard Enamel / Epola pins
  • Limited color choices - they are not full color pins
  • Longer production time - pins are hand colored and polished
  • Priced higher than some other types
