Building Better Custom Awards with Sustainable Material

Exclusive to the SITA Patent Awards, Gaudio have designed and manufactured a set of unique custom trophies with a classic design.

For these trophies, Gaudio were tasked with considering the environmental impact of the trophies. Looking at consciously-sourced materials, we were able to create trophies with a smaller environmental footprint.

Eco-friendly Corporate Trophies

Helping companies with their efforts towards sustainability is a key component of many of our designs.

Gaudio work with suppliers to source sustainable options that still allow us to offer the flexibility of bespoke manufacture. Integrating these options into our manufacturing processes means our team can create conscious trophies without compromising on design. Making these options an easy choice can impact the overall eco-friendly credentials of an trophies in a big way.

Material sourcing isn’t the only aspect of custom manufacture to consider when making green choices. Our energy and environment policy outlines the practices we utilise at our office and production space. We consider the entirety of the bespoke process, including:

Recycled and Repurposed Materials

  • Recycled and part-recycled acrylic is becoming increasingly popular. Some of our designs contain repurposed materials, giving them a second lease of life.

Recyclable Materials

  • Gaudio is a zero-to-landfill company, and while every trophy we make is built to last, we’re happy to appropriately recycle trophies.

Responsible Manufacturing

  • We endeavour to maintain energy saving practices in our manufacturing space, managing machine efficiency where possible.

Packing Methods

  • We explore recycled and recyclable packing options where available, and have developed our triple-layer packing method to prevent breakages in transit and avoid additional journeys.

The SITA Awards feature wooden components from responsible suppliers.

Environmentally Concious Without Compromise

Wood lends itself to a traditional finish, and we've incorporated wooden components into a wide range of designs.

From perpetual trophies to contemporary trophies, rich tones contribute to a more classic look. As focus shifts to consider sourcing, environmental impact, and corporate responsibility, we’ve helped a range of clients with their sustainability goals. We’ve featured a variety of custom wooden trophies on the blog:

  • The Woodland Trust Leaf Your Office Awards went with a green theme for their eco-friendly trophy, choosing an entirely wooden trophy to minimise the impact on the environment.
  • Coca-Cola combined materials for a striking custom trophy, utilising their own bottlecaps for a unique custom feature through a recycled acrylic window.
  • The RHS Award showcases an intricate design, laser cut into a slice of responsibly-sourced wood.

Custom wooden trophies showcase natural variations in the material, offering a new, raw dimension to a design.

Winners’ details are printed individually on each trophy, alongside colour-matched graphics. Print is a useful tool for customisation, and one we use in designs every day. While wood provides natural textures and rich tones, print gives branded elements the opportunity to stand out. In many cases, a logo, colour scheme, or the winners’ name is the awards’ defining feature.

Flexibility in bespoke design tailors production methods at every stage. If branding or categories change, or if winners aren’t decided until close-to or post-event, our team are on hand to organise the logistics.

The interlocking design is inspired by classic building bricks, in looks and function. The trophies stack together like a traditional toy brick, and these trophies would look sophisticated on a shelf alongside other accolades or offer a fun addition to any desk.

Build Your Own Custom Award

Individually, each award stands as a distinct custom trophy.

Together, each SITA Patent Award makes up one part of a cohesive set. Sets of awards unify winners, and their collective achievements, across the course of the year.

For events that take place annually, award design can remain consistent year-on-year, or our team can start from scratch with a fresh design for each event.

For traditional, hybrid, or virtual events, Gaudio is on hand to offer guidance and expertise.

Blank

When you order a blank trophy, it will arrive without any personalised details. The trophy is blank for you to add your own personalisation, or use as a decorative piece.

Personalise Online

Select your layout using the dropdown menu, then enter your details. The live proof shows you an approximate visual of how your trophy will look when it’s engraved. Once you’ve added the details you want and purchased your trophy, we’ll begin manufacture right away.

Please note: The live render is an estimate of how your trophy will look, and the final result may vary in size, colour and placement.

Gaudio Proofing Service

With the Gaudio Proofing Service, simply add your chosen trophy to your cart and checkout as normal. A member of the team will be in touch to collect the required details, and we’ll send you proofs to approve before manufacture. Delivery time excludes proofing.
