We offer five main options: zinc alloy metal magnets, zinc alloy magnets with epoxy dome inserts, 3D PVC magnets, epoxy fridge magnets, and acrylic magnets. Zinc alloy magnets combine a molded 3D relief with 3D UV printing for the most detail and weight. Zinc alloy magnets with epoxy dome inserts pair a metal base with a printed epoxy sticker. 3D PVC magnets are injection molded and hand-painted for a soft touch and vivid color. Epoxy fridge magnets are printed on synthetic paper with a flexible magnet backing and finished with a glossy epoxy dome. Acrylic magnets are cut to the outline of the artwork for a clear, bright look.

For collectible value and a premium feel—such as tourist souvenirs or executive gifts—zinc alloy metal magnets are a strong choice. If you want a metal feel with flat artwork like a logo or illustration, consider zinc alloy magnets with epoxy dome inserts. For mascots, cartoon characters, or family audiences, 3D PVC magnets work well. For campaigns with many designs, collectible series, or loyalty programs, epoxy fridge magnets are a good fit. For illustrations, photos, or brand imagery with a clear, glassy look, choose acrylic magnets. Unit prices vary with size, quantity, and number of colors; share your estimated quantity and dimensions and we can compare quotes across materials.

Yes. Zinc alloy magnets use 3D UV printing applied directly to the relief surface, which can reproduce multicolor gradients such as wood grain or flower petals, without the limits of traditional single-color filling. The raised and recessed relief combined with printed color gives the design a more three-dimensional look.

Yes. Once the main body of a metal magnet is molded, you can change only the print colors to create a seasonal series such as spring, summer, fall, and winter. Text areas on the design, such as plaques or pillars, can also be changed for different locations or events. Changing the shape of the main body requires a new tooling review, quoted separately.

Some metal magnet designs are built as a main body plus a movable charm. For example, our torii gate magnet can be paired with charms such as Mount Fuji, a Daruma doll (a traditional Japanese good-luck figure), a maneki-neko (beckoning cat), a white fox, or a Hina doll. Charms can also be custom designed for your brand or destination; new charm shapes require a new mold, quoted based on the design.

Custom magnets stick to metal surfaces such as fridges, steel doors, whiteboards, and filing cabinets, holding notes, photos, or cards. Magnets are chosen based on the product's size and weight: heavier pieces such as zinc alloy use strong magnets, adjusted in size or number as needed, while lighter PVC and paper-based pieces mostly use flexible magnet. If you need the magnet to hold documents, posters, or other specific items, let us know in advance and we will check the holding strength during sampling.

Yes, for PVC and paper-based magnets. The magnet is embedded inside the product, so it cannot be seen from the outside and the back keeps a clean, complete shape. For zinc alloy and other materials, the magnet is attached to the back and cannot be hidden inside. If you need a hidden magnet, please mention it when requesting a quote.

The minimum order quantity for custom magnets is 500 pieces; for special requirements, please contact our sales team. A completely new shape is a fully custom (OEM) project and requires a mold fee. If you use an existing design and only change the colors, text, or charms (ODM), no new mold is needed, saving both mold costs and production time.

Fully custom (OEM) magnets require a mold first; mold time depends on the complexity of the design. Samples are ready about 10–15 days after the mold is completed, and mass production takes about 15–40 days after sample approval. Projects based on an existing design (ODM) need no new mold and take about 15–40 days. These times exclude shipping, and the final schedule is confirmed by our sales team for each project. If your order is tied to a peak travel season or an event date, we recommend allowing plenty of lead time.

Yes. You can send hand sketches, reference photos, or concept images generated with AI tools, and we will first assess production feasibility and an estimated budget. If you need our designers to prepare the final artwork, design fees are charged separately.

Standard packaging is an individual OPP bag (clear poly bag). If you need packaging for retail display or gift boxes, please let us know when requesting a quote, and our sales team will review the options and costs with you.
