Battlefield Advertising sources trophies, plaques, crystal awards, medals and engraved gifts for employee recognition, sales milestones, sports leagues and community events across Canada.
An award means more when it is specific: a name engraved correctly, a date that matches the milestone, and wording that reflects what the recognition is actually for. A generic trophy pulled from a display case rarely lands the same way as one that was clearly chosen and personalized for the occasion.
Battlefield Advertising sources trophies, plaques, crystal and glass awards, medals and engraved gifts through the Proforma network, covering everything from a single retirement gift to an annual sales recognition program with dozens of recipients. Engraving, etching and personalization are handled as part of the order, so each piece arrives ready to present.
Traditional and modern designs for sales, sports and service recognition, with engraved nameplates.
Etched crystal and glass pieces for executive recognition, milestones and client gifts.
Sports league medals, service pins and lapel awards for teams and community programs.
Personalized drinkware, pens and desk items as a lower-cost alternative or addition to a trophy.
We start with who is being recognized, the occasion, and whether this is a one-time award or part of a recurring program with multiple recipients.
We shortlist award styles that fit the occasion and budget, then confirm the exact wording, names and dates for engraving.
For orders with multiple recipients, a proof showing the engraving layout and a sample of the names or wording is reviewed before production.
Awards are engraved, packaged and shipped to your office in time for the presentation, or to individual recipients for remote teams.
Many businesses run recognition on a calendar, annual sales awards, quarterly service milestones, or year-end appreciation, which means the same type of award gets ordered repeatedly with new names each time. Setting this up as an ongoing program keeps the award style, wording format and supplier on file, so each cycle is a smaller follow-up order rather than starting the sourcing process again.
For programs with recipients across multiple locations, awards can be shipped directly to each office or individual, and paired with a corporate gift or branded merchandise item for a more complete recognition package. This is a common pairing with the corporate gifts and employee recognition programs Battlefield already sources for clients.
The award style usually follows the tone of the occasion as much as the budget. A traditional trophy with a figure or column on a base reads as competitive recognition, well suited to sales contests and sports leagues where the result is the focus. A plaque, mounted flat with an engraved plate, tends to suit service awards and team recognition, where the wording carries more of the message than the shape of the piece.
Crystal and glass awards sit at the higher end of the range and are often reserved for executive recognition, long-service milestones or client-facing gifts, where the weight and finish of the piece itself is part of the impression. For programs that recognize a large group at different levels, it is common to mix award types, for example crystal for top performers and plaques for broader participation, within the same order.
Engraving is what turns a stock award into a personal one, and getting it right matters more than the award style itself. Names need to be spelled correctly, titles need to match what the recipient actually goes by, and dates need to reflect the right year or event. For a single award this is straightforward to check, but for a program with dozens of recipients, a small error can be easy to miss without a proper review step.
Battlefield builds a proof step into any order with more than a handful of recipients, showing the engraving layout and a sample of the names exactly as they will appear on the finished piece. This catches spelling issues, formatting inconsistencies, or names that do not fit the available space, before the full batch goes into production rather than after.
Sales recognition programs reward top performers with trophies, plaques or crystal awards on a quarterly or annual cycle.
Service anniversaries mark years of employment with an engraved award, often paired with a gift.
Sports leagues and community events use medals, pins and trophies for participants and winners.
Academic and graduation awards recognize achievement for schools, training programs and certifications.
