Steel Trophies
Any shape cut with laser precision, full-colour UV printing directly on the metal and a natural wood base. An award that says more about your event than any standard catalogue trophy.

How are
steel trophies made?
Laser, steel, UV printing and wood. We answer questions about the production process, finishing options and ways of personalising the award for a specific event.
What kind of event are steel trophies suitable for?
A steel trophy is a conscious decision — for organisers who are not interested in the convention of a standard figurine. A swimming festival with bold sponsor graphics, a city run with its own visual identity, a junior tennis tournament, a CrossFit competition in a raw industrial hall, a corporate league with modern branding — anywhere the award is meant to be an extension of the event's aesthetic, not just an accessory. The combination of steel and wood appeals both to adult participants and to children taking part in the first competitions of their lives.
How does laser cutting of the trophy shape work?
The steel sheet is placed on the work table of a laser cutter, and the beam cuts through the metal along a vector path with an accuracy of hundredths of a millimetre. The edges are clean and even — without burrs and without the need for manual finishing. Because the laser works directly from the vector file, we don't need dies or moulds. A swimmer's silhouette with splashes, the outline of an athlete on the podium, a federation logo as a standalone form, an asymmetrical geometric composition — every outline costs the same as a rectangle and is ready in a single production run.
What does UV printing directly on steel offer?
UV printing on metal is a technology that changes the rules of the game in trophy production. We apply graphics — sponsor logos, full-colour illustrations, photographs, gradient backgrounds — directly to the steel surface without film, stickers or an intermediate substrate. The colours are dense, saturated and resistant to abrasion. The final result looks like an integral part of the metal, not a sticker applied at the last minute. On a single trophy we can place the event graphics, the organiser's logo, the sponsor's logo and the winner's details all at once — without compromising the legibility of any element.
Does the trophy have to be a typical shape, or can it be fully customised?
The shape is completely free — and with no surcharge for customisation. When ordering steel trophies, the cutting laser works from a vector, so every outline is as easy to produce as a rectangle. We start with a conversation about the event: the discipline, the atmosphere, the visual identity. On this basis our graphic designer proposes a form — or produces a design the client brings ready-made. You approve the visualisation, we start production. That's how simple the path is from an idea to an award that truly represents your event.

We normally use sheet steel 2–4 mm thick, chosen according to the size and complexity of the shape. Thinner sheet (2 mm) works well for delicate outlines and filigree details, while thicker sheet (3–4 mm) gives a more solid, representative feel in the hand — especially important for podium awards. We choose the thickness together with the client at the design stage.
UV printing applied directly to metal is highly resistant to abrasion — the colours don't fade and keep their intensity for many years under normal use. Optionally, we apply an additional layer of UV varnish for extra protection, especially recommended for awards displayed in public places or presented outdoors.
Yes — laser engraving on the plate or directly on the steel is fast and precise. On every piece we can put the winner's name, the place achieved, category, time or a short dedication. Just send us the data in an Excel spreadsheet — we engrave every piece individually at no extra cost, because the laser doesn't need a tool change between pieces.
Powder coating gives a uniform colour in any RAL shade — ideal for a minimalist, industrial aesthetic where form and edge matter. UV printing opens up the full palette: gradients, graphics and sponsor logos directly on the metal. We most often combine both techniques — the edge of the trophy powder-coated, the surface covered with full-colour UV printing. The effect is durable, visually rich and impossible to achieve with any other method.
No — laser cutting does not require a die. Any outline is created directly from the vector file: a swimmer's silhouette with splashes, a federation logo as the form of the trophy, an asymmetrical geometric composition — every shape costs the same as a rectangle. This is one of the biggest practical advantages of steel trophies — for the same price you get an award participants haven't seen anywhere else.
We make the bases from natural solid wood — pine, oak or walnut, dried and processed so that it doesn't warp over time. The event or organiser logo can be laser-engraved on the side or front of the base. The plate with the winner's details is made of brass or aluminium and fixed to the base. The combination of raw steel with the warmth of natural wood makes the trophy modern without looking cold or corporate.
Yes — before full production we can make a single sample. The prototype lets you assess the shape, the quality of the UV printing, the edge finish, the base and the plate at real scale — before we start the whole run. This option is especially recommended for a first order or for a trophy with a custom shape. Contact us to discuss the terms for making a sample.
