What is the Medium Clear Prism Acrylic with Black Base?

Item APR36PIB1R is a acrylic award in acrylic, chosen for how well it takes a mark and how long that mark lasts. It measures Blank is 3" x 6". This is the clear colorway, one of 2 in the range.

Acrylic is roughly half the weight of glass and dramatically harder to break, which matters more than people expect. It survives shipping to a remote office, it survives a trade show crate, and it survives being knocked off a desk.

Acrylic is the only award substrate that reproduces a full-color logo cleanly and survives being posted to a home address. Acrylic takes full-color UV printing beautifully, so unlike crystal it can reproduce a logo in exact brand colors rather than as a frosted silhouette. Laser engraving gives the frosted look when that is preferred. The two together are why this item re-orders.

This reads as a considered gift, which means it rewards a named list and wastes its advantage on a table by the door. Concretely: $27.75 each at 1-11, $17.20 at 500+.

Decoration options

The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 2 in x 2 in.

UV Printing

UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.

Best for

Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.

Color

Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.

Laser Engraving

A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.

Best for

Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.

Color

Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.

Laser Cutting

The laser cuts entirely through the sheet to a custom outline. A shape cut to your logo or silhouette rather than a stock outline.

Best for

Acrylic awards and signage that should not look off-the-shelf.

Color

Material color.

Artwork requirements

  • We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
  • Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
  • Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
  • Do not spend a week hunting for the perfect file. Send what exists and we will tell you what is usable.
  • Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.

Common uses

Full-color brand awardsWorks well for full-color brand awards, where the acrylic award format does what a printed handout cannot.
Sales recognitionSpecified regularly for sales recognition. The imprint area at 2 in x 2 in is sized for exactly that job.
Remote-team shippingRemote-team shipping is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
Team and department awardsRecognizing a group without the cost or ceremony of individual crystal for every person.
Renewal and retention giftsTimed to the contract date rather than the calendar, which is when the recipient is actually paying attention.
Service anniversariesFive, ten and twenty years. The object marks the span in a way a announcement never manages.
Sponsorship and partner thanksGiven to the people who funded or enabled the work, in a form they can keep visible.
Booth and trade show handoutsThe item that gives someone a reason to stop walking, and a reason to remember which booth it came from.

Where this works best

The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.

1

Franchise & Multi-Location Brands

The hard problem in multi-location branding is consistency, not creativity. A single approved item list, locked artwork and a repeatable re-order path stop forty locations producing forty versions of the logo. Stocked programs with fixed pricing are what make that governable. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. Too good to scatter. Pick the recipients deliberately.

2

Sports Leagues, Tournaments & Clubs

Sport needs volume, deadlines and a clear hierarchy of awards. Awards are read as a hierarchy whether or not you intended one. If the participation piece and the champion piece look similar, the champion feels short-changed, and that is remembered longer than the result. Acrylic is the only award substrate that reproduces a full-color logo cleanly and survives being posted to a home address. Volume takes it to $17.20, which widens the list without cheapening it.

3

Nonprofit & Fundraising

Every pound spent on a donor gift is a pound not spent on the mission, so the gift has to earn it. Volunteer recognition is where the money works hardest. Volunteers give time that would otherwise cost you wages, and the marginal cost of thanking them properly is trivial against what their continued involvement is worth. Acrylic takes full-color UV printing beautifully, so unlike crystal it can reproduce a logo in exact brand colors rather than as a frosted silhouette. Laser engraving gives the frosted look when that is preferred. The gesture is the product here. Spend the thought, not just the budget.

4

Technology, SaaS & Startups

Distributed teams have no office to carry the culture, so the objects have to. Shipping a considered kit to a home address is now a standard part of remote onboarding, and it is the rare marketing spend that shows up in retention numbers. Ship-safe materials matter more here than in any other segment. The acrylic award format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. At $27.75 before breaks, name the recipients rather than filling a table.

5

Employee Recognition & Service Awards

Recognition fails when the object does not match the words. The presentation matters as much as the piece. An award handed over in a hallway is worth a fraction of the same award presented in front of the team, which means the object should be specified for the moment it will be photographed in, not the shelf it ends on. This reads as a gift. Give it to people you chose, not people who walked past.

6

Education, Schools & Universities

Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Student-facing items live rough. They go in backpacks, get left outdoors and are rarely cleaned, so durability matters more than finish. Faculty and donor gifting is the opposite problem and deserves an entirely separate specification. Acrylic is roughly half the weight of glass and dramatically harder to break, which matters more than people expect. Worth personalising individually at this price; the response rate justifies it.

What do buyers ask about APR36PIB1R?

Can I see a proof before you produce the order?

Always, and we do not start without written approval. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. Once approved, the proof becomes the specification for the run, so check the spelling and the placement carefully. The personalization area on APR36PIB1R is 2 in x 2 in.

Do you keep this item in stock?

Stock on APR36PIB1R is confirmed when you order. If a color is short we say so the day you order rather than the week before the deadline. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.

What artwork do you need from me?

Send vector if it exists, raster at 300 dpi if it does not, and whatever you have if neither. The personalization area on APR36PIB1R is 2 in x 2 in, and we redraw or re-proportion anything that will not survive it. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.

Can I order more later and have them match?

Re-orders reproduce rather than reinterpret. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. On natural materials the base itself can shift a little between batches, so tell us if an exact match matters. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.

Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?

Yes. APR36PIB1R runs in 2 colors and they combine for pricing, as long as the artwork does not change between them. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. APR36PIB1R is priced on a written quote rather than a published ladder, and the figure is confirmed before you pay.

What does it actually cost at quantity?

APR36PIB1R is priced on a written quote rather than a published ladder, and the figure is confirmed before you pay. The personalization area on APR36PIB1R is 2 in x 2 in. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.

Is there a setup charge?

No. Setup is free on every order at every quantity. Art preparation, machine setup and your digital proof are built into the price, with nothing added for them later. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.

What is the minimum order for APR36PIB1R?

There is no minimum beyond one piece on APR36PIB1R. APR36PIB1R is priced on a written quote rather than a published ladder, and the figure is confirmed before you pay. The price per piece only goes down as the quantity rises.
