FAQ – CUSTOMIZABLE WOODEN MEDALS ONLINE

Where do your medals come from and how are they made?

All our medals are produced in our workshop located in the heart of the Chartreuse massif (Isère). We use 5mm thick solid wood, selected for its robustness and its ecological character (sustainable forest management). Thanks to this local short-circuit manufacturing, our products benefit from the official Origine France Garantie® label. This is the assurance of an ethical and quality reward.

What are the shapes and styles of medals available?

We offer several finishes to match the spirit of your event :

• The classic Round Medal: A clean and perfect cut (available in 60mm and 70mm).

• The “Log” Medal: A more rustic and natural style.

• The Bottle Opener Medal: The perfect combination between souvenir and utility. All our medals are pierced to accommodate a ribbon (lanyard).

How do I customize my medal online?

The process is simple via our simulator. Once the diameter (60 or 70mm) and the model have been chosen, you import your logo or illustration and add your texts (Date, Name of the race, “Finisher”). You view the rendering of the engraving on the screen before validating. It is ideal for small and medium standard series.

Why does the file have to be in “black flat” for burning?

The personalization is carried out by laser engraving: the beam burns the wood slightly to inscribe the visual. This technique does not make it possible to reproduce the colors or the shades of gray. In order for your logo or text to be perfectly readable and clear, it must be provided in pure black (100%) on a white background, without gradients or shading effects.

For which events is the wooden medal suitable?

It is essential for nature and outdoor events: trails, running, hiking, Nordic walking or petanque tournaments. It is also very popular with companies (team building, eco-responsible seminars) and individuals for private events: country weddings, birthdays, baptisms or cousins, where it serves as an original and sustainable guest gift.

Is it possible to have colored medals or a custom-made shape?

The models sold directly online are exclusively made of engraved wood (natural monochrome rendering). If you want a medal with color printing, a specific cut shape (the shape of your logo for example) or special finishes, we invite you to go through our “Custom-Made” page or the Express Quote form. Our graphic designers will accompany you to create a 100% unique medal.
