Pick the Right Metal for Your Collar Stays
Collar stays perform best when the metal matches the product’s purpose and brand style. The metal choice determines how the logo is applied, how the surface is finished, and how the product feels in hand. Each material carries its own hardness, weight, and surface character. In turn, these factors directly affect which logo method works best and which plating colors are available. Material choice can also affect function, especially for magnetic collar stay designs. Before selecting your shirt collar stays, compare the material, logo method, finish, and available size. This helps create a product that fits both the design goal and target market.

Laser engraving

- Ideal for shirt collar stays with complex, fine, or small designs
- Supports brass, copper, and stainless steel
Silkscreen Printing
