Acrylic Awards

Acrylic vs. Crystal Awards – What’s the Difference?

• Material & Clarity: Crystal awards are made from premium K9 optical crystal, known for weight, clarity, and brilliance. Acrylic awards are lightweight, shatter-resistant, and more budget-friendly.

• Engraving & Printing: Crystal is deep sandblast etched for a permanent, elegant finish. Acrylic supports both laser engraving and vibrant full-color UV printing, offering more creative freedom.

• Durability & Price: Acrylic is impact-resistant and ideal for shipping, traveling, or high-volume programs. Crystal offers a higher-end feel but comes at a premium price point.

• Use Cases: Acrylic awards are best for large recognition programs, themed events, and budget-conscious projects. Crystal awards are preferred for executive recognition, retirement, and high-prestige honors.

👉 Many of our customers combine both: acrylic awards for broad recognition and crystal awards for top-tier leadership milestones.
