Ever been to an event or a conference and noticed those tiny, shiny pins people have on their suits, shirts or sarees? Yes! We are talking about lapel pins. These little guys might be small, but they are packed with meanings and stories – they have a way of bringing people together and sparking conversations. It’s funny how something as seemingly insignificant as a tiny piece of metal can hold so much meaning, right? It was this subtle charm of lapel pins that inspired the birth of Pinnacle Pins.

These pint-sized accessories aren’t just for show; they say a lot about a person, about what they stand for, and the organization they represent. It’s like wearing your identity and your values, all wrapped in this little piece of art. 

Having made thousands of pins for various organizations and occasions, here is a list of ways that these tiny wonders can do for you – 

Lapel Pins that Make You Belong

Imagine wearing a small piece of metal, and suddenly, you’re not just an individual anymore. You’re part of a tribe, representing your company and all its awesomeness. That’s the magic of lapel pins. They’re like the secret handshake of the business world, helping customers spot employees in places like exhibitions, conferences and even airports. Within companies, they’re like glue, holding the team together.

Lapel Pins that Shout Your Values

Some lapel pins are all about making a statement. They’re designed around themes, causes, or projects that a company deeply cares about. Think “Make In India” for those proud domestic manufacturers or “Cruelty-Free” for the ethical cosmetic companies. You can even whip up special campaign pins to bring attention to  your values and engage your audience.

Lapel Pins for the Heart

Ever noticed that when you do some good for a social cause, you often get a lapel pin in return? Those pins are like badges of honor, like the pink ribbon pins for Breast Cancer Awareness. They’re not just symbols of support; they’re tiny champions for the causes they represent. Each organization has its own moral compass, and lapel pins are the compass needles.

Lapel Pins as Celebration

Remember those gold stars you used to get in school? Lapel pins are like the grown-up version. They’re perfect for recognizing and appreciating your team members for their hard work. Plus, they’re a must-have for those always-on-the-move teams or for individuals to flaunt at special events.

Armed Forces Recognition Pins 

Speaking of recognition, we’ve got a soft spot for our armed forces and all the service heroes out there. We’ve crafted some amazing pins for these dedicated folks. I mean, we once made a 3D fighter plane pin for the Indian Air Force that was so detailed it looked like a tiny model. 

Service Recognition Pins

Lapel pins also make fantastic additions to Long Service Award Kits, celebrating those work anniversaries in style. It’s like saying, “Hey, you’ve been an amazing team mate for 10 years, and we want the world to know it!” So, when it comes to recognizing and rewarding loyal team members, these pins truly shine. 

Lapel Pins for Celebrations

Special anniversaries, important events, milestones – lapel pins are there to get the party started. Whether it’s a company’s 10th birthday bash or an annual fair, these pins make for sweet souvenirs and keepsakes. Despite their small size, they’re like attention magnets, and at Pinnacle, we’re experts at creating designs that get people talking.

Lapel Pins as Cherished Keepsakes

Sometimes, we’ve gone all out and created exact 3D replicas of our customers’ products or logos in the form of lapel pins. These pins aren’t just stunning; they’re cherished like family heirlooms.

Well, this is just the tip of the lapel pin iceberg. They’re also big hits with sports teams, country clubs, golf enthusiasts – you name it.

And as for our range, it’s like a lapel pin wonderland. Our finishes range from antique to shiny metal to satin to sterling silver, and yes, even 24-karat gold.
