Badges - we love everything about them, how they look, what they mean, the stories and the memories and this week we have been working on a cracker of a badge for our very own chairman, Phil Gold who recently returned from his travels across Bhutan and the Himalayas.

Our badges are a perfect memento for marking an occasion or commemorating a memory. We offer a whole host of low-cost affordable options to ensure that our personalised printed & embroidered badges cost a fraction of the price of our nearest competitors. 

(N.B. We are even offering up to 1/3 OFF with our seasonal price list for a Limited Time Only!)

Golden Finishes has come a long way since we started in a shed in the back of the garden. The business has continued to grow and develop year on year as we become the established go to place for badges and textiles in the garment decoration industry.

We recently stumbled upon this throwback – a gem from the early 2000s, our original website (see below). Not the highest tech but the introduction of Golden Finishes online. 

This blast from the past shows how far we have come in a short space of time. Working tirelessly to develop our online presence and grow the Golden Finishes business but maintain the same core message and protect our reputation within the industry. This original site was a huge success when it was first launched, it helped take our business to a whole new level and gain customers from all across the UK which led us on to the next chapter of our online history.

After the initial success of that site and the rise of the internet era there came a time when we had to go with the flow and update our site and behold the next Golden Finishes site – quite modern and innovative at the time!

This site gave our customers more information than ever about us, what we do, what we offer and took things to a whole new level!

This version of our site stood the test of time and boosted our online presence further than we could have ever expected. But like all good things, it had to come to an end at some point… to make way for an updated version of our site which has got us to where we are now! 

Our latest site was developed with current trends in mind – focusing on conveying what we do but in a user friendly way, whether it is on your PC, Laptop, Tablet or Mobile (See Below). The most contemporary and modern version of the Golden Finishes site continues to develop and evolve – so what this space garment decorators who knows what the next trend will bring!

But despite all the changes over the past 15 years online one thing remains the same – we provide our customers high quality printed & embroidered textiles. No matter what the site – we have been careful to ensure our core business and values remain the same. Websites only last so long before they develop, but here at Golden Finishes we plan to stand the test of time bringing you high quality badges, pennants, sashes and much more!

Over the last 25 years we have continuously invested in the latest technology to keep up with the industries evolving demands and this year’s no different. We understand that the textile industry is a pretty rapid one –the competition is fierce with customers demanding more than ever before. The bars been raised in the past 18 months by both our customers and the industry itself.

It may be difficult to keep up with for most but we’re using all out experience, skills and technology to not just follow the trends but set them.

We decided to significantly invest in automating our Digitizing to take some of our Golden Finishes products to the next level, a higher standard than ever before, so we are delighted to announce our recent investment in the latest Wilcom DecoStudio e3 Software.

As we have said over the last 25 years we’ve continued to invest in the latest technology… and we plan to continually invest for many more years to come.  After all, all of our products require some piece of software, hardware or technology somewhere along the line!

We plan to have the Wilcom software up and running at Golden Finishes HQ ASAP. Combining our experienced staff (they’ve been in the industry since it’s pretty much begun) with the latest technology, we can be confident in guaranteeing we can bring you the best digitized products in the trade for many years to come!
