Trophy Plaques

Since 1994, Design Awards have been leaders in the design and making of bespoke trophy plaques in Australia. Our determination to create trophies that exceed our clients’ expectation has kept us at the helm of the industry since our inception.

We are a manufacturing business that specialises in high-end trophy and award making and that means we are completely against the mass production of any of our work. We individual assess all of our clients’ needs and create bespoke trophies exact to their specifications. Design Awards is a proudly Australian company and all of our products are available online or in our studios in Sydney and Melbourne.

We have two fully equipped workshops, where our highly skilled artisanal makers and designers go above and beyond to create trophies and awards that our clients love. There is no mass importing of trophies and all of our materials are locally sourced and of the highest quality.

High-Quality Trophy Plaques in Australia

We don’t just design and make entire trophies, but also specialise in engraving trophy plaques in Australia. Trophy plaques are an incredibly important part of any trophy, as it allows for the personalisation of a trophy, which makes it more relevant and meaningful to recipients. Plaques can be engraved with the recipient’s name, the award name, the event, the date and even a meaningful quote. These kinds of details will ensure that the recipient proudly displays the trophy for years to come.

We create trophy plaques and much more here at Design Awards, and here are some of the alternative uses that we often manufacture plaques for:

•    Openings: When opening a new building or business, you can give it an extra level of recognition. Most people get a sleek plaque to commemorate the day it opened, and proudly display it at the entrance for everyone to see.
•    Historical buildings: Buildings of historical significance should be celebrated for their significance! Whether it was the first building in town, the oldest post office or the original bank, it’s always nice for locals and residents to find out more about the building – a detailed plaque is an excellent way to do this.

•    Employee Milestones: A wonderful way to give your longest serving and hardest working employees recognition is through plaques that commemorate the accomplishments – these could be proudly displayed on their desks at work.

•    Job Titles: It modern and interesting why to spruce up the office is to use plaques on office doors engraved with names, job titles and departments. Not only does this look professional, it also helps employees to feel appreciated.

•    Memorial Plaques: Memorial plaques are a wonderful way to honour loved ones that have passed away.

Dedicate a park bench or plant a tree and place a plaque with a small meaningful quote, name and details of the loved one.

The Continuing Popularity of Trophy Plaques

Despite improvements in technology and the ability to produce unique trophies in all sorts of unusual designs, traditional plaques are still very popular and have an important role to play. That’s because they’re so adaptable, immensely attractive and can be supplied in a range of shapes, sizes and styles.

Plaques are available in familiar heart shapes or can be square, rectangular or any unusual shape for customised designs. They can be wall hung or free-standing with a supporting strut. The combinations can seem almost endless, but the overall appearance is familiar and comforting, resulting in their enduring charm.

Awards for Various Occasions

Plaques are ideal as trophies for various types of event that include:

• special occasions or events that need to be commemorated
• excellence in anything that is deserving of reward
• any type of sport, whether cricket, rugby, football or anything else
• special occasions or events that are to be marked
• particular achievements or long service in a company or any other organisation.

You can give large plaques as perpetual trophies that are handed out and held for a period as well as smaller replicas for the recipient to keep as a permanent memento of the event. All can be customised to your needs and engraved with personal details.

The effort you put into the design and acquisition demonstrates the value you put on the achievement or the recipient’s contribution. The award demonstrates the level of your appreciation and so it’s well worth the time and effort to create a trophy that will be valued by whoever receives it.
