Packaging Enamel Pins - Tips From The Experts
For most people, enamel pins are fun items that enthusiasts wear for many reasons.
But to pin badge designers, manufacturers, and sellers, they're how we make a living. So, your method of packaging enamel pins plays a vital part in creating attractive products and ensuring their protection during delivery.
Stick with us for the next few minutes to learn how to properly package your enamel pins for maximum saleability and minimal quality control issues.
The Importance of Effective Enamel Pin Packaging
Effective packaging is crucial for enamel pins as it protects the badges and adds to their appeal.
A well-designed package can enhance your brand identity and create a memorable unboxing experience for your customers.
Moreover, it can also significantly help you display and organise your enamel pins, especially at craft fairs and conventions.
Improve Your Products With Customised Backing Cards
Branded backing cards are a popular choice for packaging enamel pins, as they offer a canvas to showcase your brand's personality and creativity.
We can design your backing cards with your logo, colour scheme, or other branding elements. They enhance the presentation of your pins and provide a sturdy base for pin attachment that stops them from rattling around on the delivery route.

Clear Plastic Sleeves To Help Protect Your Pins
Clear plastic sleeves are a practical option for packaging enamel pins as they offer a clear view of the pin while providing a layer of protection that prevents scratches and dust.
By default, we send every enamel pin badge in a clear plastic bag to protect the pin's surface.
Packaging Pins For Protection & Posting
When dispatching pin badges to your customers, fans, and clients, it's wise to think about the level of protection you need weighed up against the cost of materials and postage.
Jiffy Bags & Bubble Mailers For Low Quantities
While some companies caution against using bubble mailers and Jiffy bags to dispatch products, if you're only sending a couple of pin badges, using these packages will be more than adequate while remaining cost-effective.
That said, if the badges you're sending are attached to backing cards, there is a potential for them to get bent in transit.
Kraft Boxes & Cardboard Book Mailers
To keep your pin badges safe, especially if you're sending multiple or large quantities of badges, use Kraft boxes and book mailers for some serious protection.
Delivery services tend to handle boxes with more care than they do envelopes, and the rigid corrugated box walls are excellent protectors to ensure your badge's refuge no matter the delivery distance.
Eco-Friendly Packaging Solutions
Eco-friendly packaging is a great way to demonstrate your brand's environmental commitment. Many options are available, from recycled paper and cardboard to biodegradable and glassine bags.
Consider using sustainable materials like cardboard or kraft paper, which give your packaging a rustic, earthy feel.
Remember, going green can also be a selling point for your enamel pins.
Creating an Unboxing Experience
Creating an unboxing experience can add value to your enamel pins. It's about making the act of opening the package a memorable event.
You can achieve this by layering packaging elements. Start with a branded box or bag, then add tissue paper, a thank-you note, or even promotional materials and offers to help repeat customers.
