What is the Silver Aluminum Rectangle Name Badge?
This name badge is made from anodised aluminum, light and corrosion-resistant. It measures 3" x 2" x .045". This is the silver colorway.
Aluminum gives you a metal look and metal durability at a fraction of the weight, and it matters when you are shipping several hundred units.
Badges are the most-read piece of branded material an organization produces. Laser engraving cuts through the anodised layer to bright metal. Sublimation-coated aluminum also accepts full-color photographic printing.
Giveaway pricing, which changes how you should think about quantity. Running short at a booth costs more in missed conversations than the extra units would have cost to print. Concretely: $5.34 each at 1-11, $3.31 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 1.5 in x 1 in.
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.
Dye Sublimation
Heat converts solid dye to gas, which bonds into a polyester coating or ceramic glaze. Full-color artwork embedded in the surface rather than sitting on top of it.
Best for
Full-wrap photographic decoration on mugs, coated drinkware and coated metal.
Color
Full color. Cannot print white. The substrate supplies white.
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.
Artwork requirements
- Raster artwork should be at least 300 dpi at the finished imprint size, on a transparent or white background.
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
- Outline your fonts before sending. It removes the most common cause of a proof coming back wrong.
- Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually will not.
Production schedule
| Artwork proof | 1 business day from receipt of usable art |
|---|---|
| Standard production | 3 to 5 business days after proof approval |
| Rush production | quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay |
| Ground transit | 1 to 5 business days depending on destination |
Common uses
Staff identificationStaff identification is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
ConferencesA natural fit for conferences, which is one of the settings this name badge was specified for.
Hospitality and retail teamsBuilt for hospitality and retail teams. That is the use case the format was designed around, not one retrofitted to it.
Sponsorship and partner thanksGiven to the people who funded or enabled the work, in a form they can keep visible.
Team and department awardsRecognizing a group without the cost or ceremony of individual crystal for every person.
Recruiting and onboardingIncluded in offer packs and first-day kits, where the object is doing culture work from the very first hour.
Event and conference giftingHanded to qualified conversations rather than to everyone, so the spend goes where the pipeline is.
Fundraising and donor recognitionThanking the people who gave, in a form that quietly encourages the next person to.
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
Hospitality, Restaurants & Breweries
In hospitality the promotional item and the retail item are the same object. Branded glassware and drinkware serve guests, then sell to guests at the end of the visit. That dual use changes the maths entirely. The decoration cost is recovered at the till rather than written off to marketing. Down to $3.31 at volume, which is where this stops being a cost.
2
Healthcare & Senior Living
Healthcare buyers screen for practicality and hygiene before they screen for design. Shift work changes the specification. Items are carried between home, locker and ward, so anything that leaks, breaks or cannot go through a dishwasher gets abandoned within a fortnight regardless of how good it looked at the point of purchase. Aluminum gives you a metal look and metal durability at a fraction of the weight, and it matters when you are shipping several hundred units.. Buy for coverage. The arithmetic rewards it and the budget will not notice.
3
Franchise & Multi-Location Brands
The hard problem in multi-location branding is consistency, not creativity. Artwork drift is cumulative and invisible until it is severe. A locked file held centrally against each item number, rather than a logo emailed between locations, is what stops forty sites gradually producing forty logos. At $5.34 before breaks it is cheap enough to hand out without counting.
4
Government, Military & First Responders
This segment is precise about protocol and unforgiving about quality. Challenge coins, unit recognition, retirement and commendation pieces all carry established conventions. Sourcing compliance and documented lead times usually matter as much as the item itself. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. The unit cost here is low enough that reach matters more than restraint.
5
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Departments buy separately even when the brand is shared, which is how a university ends up with nine versions of its own crest. A single approved item list with locked artwork solves more than any individual purchasing decision will. An imprint area of 1.5 in x 1 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. Order deep. At this price the waste of a few extra is cheaper than running short.

What do buyers ask about UN5950?
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on UN5950 runs from $5.34 a piece at 1-11 down to $3.31 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. UN5950 sells from a single unit at $5.34, the first rung of its published ladder, so a sample is simply a normal order. A decorated single piece goes through the same proof as a full run.
Can you work to a fixed in-hand date?
Yes, and it is the right way to brief us. Tell us the date the box has to be open rather than the date you want it shipped, and checkout works the schedule backwards from there. It refuses a date it cannot keep rather than accepting it and missing it. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
Do you ship to multiple addresses?
Yes, through a quote. Card checkout ships one order to one address, so for a split run send the address list with a quote request and we confirm the freight for every destination in writing before you pay. The artwork is proofed once and applied across the whole run. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
Can I see a proof before you produce the order?
Yes, and nothing runs until you have signed it off. Read it properly rather than skimming, because the approved proof is the specification we produce against. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on UN5950 is 1.5 in x 1 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.
Is there a setup charge?
There is no setup charge, ever. Art preparation, machine setup and the proof are part of the price on this page. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
What is the minimum order for UN5950?
UN5950 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on UN5950 runs from $5.34 a piece at 1-11 down to $3.31 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on UN5950 is 1.5 in x 1 in.
