Enamel Color

Enamel color (Fill in the colors) is a very common technique in the production of badges, keychains, medals and other products.

Enamel Color
Soft enamel is a filled-color process used when artwork contains separate areas enclosed by metal lines or borders. The enamel sits below the raised metal features, leaving a recessed color surface. This height difference gives the design a clear metal-and-color structure.


An artwork review checks whether the color cells, metal borders and small design elements are practical for the selected product geometry. When a coated face is wanted, clear epoxy can be reviewed as a separate post-decoration option. Epoxy does not turn soft enamel into hard enamel, and the two finishes should not be described as the same construction.


Hard enamel is available for designs that need a smoother color surface while retaining metal borders between color areas. Unlike the recessed effect of soft enamel, the finished color areas present a more even face in relation to the surrounding metal design.

This process still relies on clear color separation. Adjacent colors need suitable divisions, and the artwork must show which lines are metal and which areas receive enamel. Fine marks that cannot be represented as practical enamel fields may need to be adjusted or considered for printing.

Our operation includes an enamel coloring and epoxy workshop with automatic and manual coloring functions.
Automatic dispensing can be considered for suitable repeated enamel areas. Manual coloring remains available when a design or part geometry requires direct operator handling.
