Types of Award Supplier Partnerships
In any aspect of life, we can accomplish more when working together. Teamwork is essential to building an organization or achieving a milestone. In the world of recognition, there are various award manufacturers who specialize in unique trades and skills. For instance, one vendor is known for crystal awards, and another concentrates on engraving. With award supplier partnerships, we can expand our capabilities beyond our imagination.
When developing Cristaux International, we knew we wanted to prioritize and grow our network of vendors and specialists. Why? With a wider net, we could bring to life more interesting and diverse creations. Our manufacturers, vendors, and partners help make our hub for modern recognition programs possible.

Like the Avengers or the Justice League, our award vendors each have a special superpower. By playing to their strengths and specialties, they serve as experts in their fields and support us with leading craftsmanship. The different types of suppliers help us create far-reaching recognition programs.

Fabrication Specialists
From machining metal to cutting crystal, there are countless techniques used to create modern recognition pieces. Imagine a marketplace of diverse vendors. Cristaux’s roof is not big enough to house all the machinery, materials, and manpower needed to fulfil every design. By turning to our partners, we can go to one for anodizing and another for electroplating. We want to work with the best of the best and build collaborative relationships.
For example, Cristaux works with 3D molding and scanning specialists to create award statues for clients. With their help, we can achieve excellent precision. Also, working with a local supplier can help us get files and renderings to clients faster and smoother.

Most personalized awards are finished by using the following customization methods.
- Sand etching
- Digital printing
- Laser engraving
- Diamond-tip engraving
- Sublimation
- Embedment
- 3D-printing
