How much do custom awards cost?

The price tag on a custom award can be a significant factor in decision-making. Yet, understanding what influences that cost can be a maze of variables. At Award Maven, we believe in transparent pricing, but it’s important to recognize that “custom” means just that — unique to your requirements. Let’s delve into the elements that impact pricing and offer a clearer picture of what to expect.

Factors Influencing Custom Award Costs

Material:

• Crystal: Crystal awards, known for their elegance and prestige, tend to be on the higher end of the spectrum. For instance, the Pinnacle Award, a towering crystal obelisk, commands a premium due to its substantial size and intricate design.
• Acrylic: Acrylic (or Lucite) offers a cost-effective alternative without compromising on aesthetic appeal. The Radiant Star Award, a shining example from our collection, is both budget-friendly and visually impressive.
• Metal: Metal awards, particularly those made with precious metals like gold or silver, naturally come with a higher price tag. However, options like the Metal Award Insert can add a touch of metallic elegance to your acrylic pieces without breaking the bank.
• Wood and Stone: The cost of wood and stone awards depends on the rarity and quality of the material, as well as the complexity of the design. The Harmony Award, a beautiful fusion of wood and crystal, falls somewhere in the middle of the price range.

Size & Complexity:

• Larger awards require more material and often involve intricate manufacturing processes, increasing the cost.
• Similarly, complex designs with multiple components or intricate details will likely cost more than simpler designs.

Quantity:

• Generally, the more awards you order, the lower the per-unit cost. This is because there are certain flat costs associated with manufacturing a custom award that can be distributed across a larger number of units.

Personalization:

• Engraving, etching, or printing adds a personalized touch to your award but also adds to the cost. The level of detail and complexity of the imprint process(es) will affect the final price.

Additional Features:

• Some awards may include additional features like LED lighting, custom packaging, or presentation cases, which can influence the overall cost.
