Solutions for manufacturing metal merchandising that strengthens brand identity.

Materials for the manufacture of personalised metal merchandise

Metal promotional items are widely used in promotional campaigns, corporate events and marketing initiatives. Items such as pins, key rings, badges and promotional medals help to convey a brand’s identity through durable and easily recognisable visual elements.

At Coniex, we supply technical materials that facilitate the production of this type of item, enabling the manufacture of metal parts with high-definition logos, text and corporate symbols.

Coniex’s solutions are used in the manufacture of various promotional products, including:

  • corporate pins
  • personalised metal key rings
  • promotional badges
  • commemorative medals for events
  • metal merchandise items

The combination of casting and decoration techniques makes it possible to produce bespoke pieces with attractive finishes, tailored to the requirements of each campaign or event.

SILCODISC silicone moulds for promotional items

Metal promotional items are often produced using centrifugal casting, a process that enables the manufacture of multiple parts with high precision in production runs.

For this type of application, Coniex offers SILCODISC, a range of technical silicones used in the manufacture of moulds for centrifugal casting.

These silicones enable the precise reproduction of logos, typefaces and graphic elements that form part of the design of promotional items.

SILCODISC silicones are characterised by:

  • good reproduction of graphic detail
  • stability during the casting process
  • resistance to repeated production cycles
  • sufficient elasticity for the removal of complex parts

These properties make it possible to produce promotional pins, key rings, badges or medals with well-defined relief and a high-quality finish.

Color y personalización con esmaltes epoxi ESMALTEX

One of the most important features of promotional items is their ability to convey a brand’s visual identity. For this reason, the use of colours and graphic elements is essential.

For this type of application, Coniex offers ESMALTEX, a range of epoxy resins developed for decorative cold enamelling on metal.

ESMALTEX enamels allow engraved areas of the piece to be filled with vibrant colours, creating visual contrast and enhancing the visibility of the logo or corporate design.

Its main features include:

  • vibrant and consistent colours
  • good adhesion to metal
  • glossy or translucent finishes
  • durability in everyday use
  • bisphenol A-free (BPA-free) formulation

These properties make ESMALTEX enamels ideal for decorating corporate pins, promotional badges or personalised metal key rings.

Surface treatment for promotional items

Coniex’s Surface division offers solutions designed to improve metal cleaning and optimise surface preparation prior to processes such as enamelling, polishing or surface coating.
Proper surface preparation helps to achieve more uniform finishes and a higher visual quality in promotional items.
