Custom 3D trophies for businesses and events
At Sustain Awards we design and manufacture custom 3D trophies, combining industrial design, sustainable materials and high-precision finishes.
Our approach is not based on mass production, but on carefully developed projects for companies, agencies and corporate events across the European Union.
3D Design and Customisation
Each piece is uniquely designed, aligned with the visual identity and values of every brand.
From a logo, a shape or a concept, we develop 3D models with balanced proportions, a minimal aesthetic and a high level of detail.
Trophies can be fully customised in shape, colour, texture and graphics, integrating names, categories or corporate messages.
Technology and Precision
We work with several additive manufacturing technologies —SLA, MSLA and SLS— ensuring a professional finish and far higher resolution than conventional FDM printing.
This allows us to create complex geometries, smooth surfaces and precise tolerances (±0.1 mm), ideal for 3D representation trophies and institutional pieces.
Each piece undergoes a manual post-processing phase of sanding, filling and two-component industrial painting, fully matched to the brand’s RAL or Pantone colours.
Sustainable 3D Trophies
We manufacture using recycled PLA and PETG, as well as resins with biobased content, always prioritising the lowest possible environmental impact without compromising durability, finishing or aesthetics.
We can also combine 3D printing with FSC-certified wood bases, recycled steel or mineral composites, depending on the project’s visual language.
1. A new-generation material
rPLA Prime is a recycled biopolymer made from 100% post-consumer PLA recovered from plant-based plastic waste.
Its composition and quality control ensure precise, stable and uniform printing, maintaining a smooth texture and high detail definition.
At Sustain Awards we use it for its balance between technical performance and sustainability, achieving resistant and visually clean pieces without relying on fossil-based plastics.
2. Properties and behaviour
rPLA Prime combines rigidity, strength and thermal stability, making it ideal for high-quality trophies and ornamental pieces.
It keeps its shape over time, withstands handling and offers excellent adhesion and flow during printing.
Its natural finish and the option for post-painting enable perfectly smooth and professional surfaces, far beyond the look of domestic 3D printing.
3. Sustainability and traceability
This material comes from recycled plastic waste within the European Union, significantly reducing its carbon footprint.
The recovery and reformulation process avoids toxic additives and allows the material to be recycled again after its useful life.
At Sustain Awards we value rPLA Prime not only for its performance but because it enables trophies with a responsible origin: materials that already had a previous life and now become symbols of recognition.
Weight and Perceived Quality
We know a 3D trophy must convey presence and value. We adjust weight through:
Internal mineral fillers (gypsum or natural-based resins)
Metallic additives in powder or structural load in non-filament processes
This results in balanced, solid pieces with a tactile feel matching the level of the event.
Finishes and Textures
We offer multiple finishes: matte, satin or gloss, with texture options such as stone, metal, cement or ceramic.
The industrial paints and sealers used ensure durability, light resistance and perfect colour uniformity.
European Production and Specialised Service
All manufacturing takes place in the EU, ensuring reliable lead times, quality control and consistent supply.
With more than 10 years of experience, Sustain Awards collaborates with communication teams, agencies and major corporations such as Telefónica, DHL or Siemens, building a reputation for precision and trust.
3D printing for decorative pieces or trophies usually shows aesthetic (layer marks, low resolution) and functional (fragility, low density) limits.
At Sustain Awards we have optimised the process by combining advanced technologies and post-treatments, achieving results comparable to industrial injection or casting products.
High-precision 3D Printing
FDM printing (fused filament deposition) is widespread but its resolution is often insufficient for presentation pieces or high-aesthetic trophies.
That’s why at Sustain Awards we work with non-filament printing technologies, specifically:
SLA (Stereolithography) – Uses photosensitive resins cured by laser. Achieves layers down to 25 microns with smooth surfaces, ideal for organic shapes and fine details.
MSLA / LCD – UV light through LCD screens, improving accuracy and reducing production time with uniform finishes.
SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) – Used for small series or structural pieces, sintering polymer powder by laser, offering high mechanical strength and excellent surface uniformity.
How do we control the weight of our 3D trophies?
Standard PLA or PETG have low densities (1.2–1.3 g/cm³), resulting in pieces that feel too light.
To achieve the solidity expected from a corporate trophy (400 g to 1,500 g), we use two methods:
1.- Mineral-compound filling (gypsum or mineral-based organic resins) to add mass and stability.
2.- Metal powder integration (aluminium or fine steel) in SLS processes or loaded resins, achieving real weight and a metallic tactile feel.
Which sustainability criteria do we apply?
We prioritise recycled or biobased materials, including:
Post-consumer recycled PLA, plant-based and biodegradable under controlled conditions.
Recycled PETG from industrial packaging, with excellent thermal and mechanical resistance.
Resins with biobased content from vegetable oils.
All printing waste is recycled internally or managed through certified providers.
How do we ensure color accuracy in our 3D-printed trophies?
Instead of relying on the limited colour availability of filaments or resins, we apply two-component industrial paint with UV resistance, accurately reproducing any corporate RAL or Pantone code.
This ensures perfect colour coherence between 3D trophies and each brand’s visual identity.
