Carat Médailles was established in 1992 following a merger with Alliance Tool & Engraving founded 1972. Alliance had originally been established as a machine shop, dealing primarily in the tool and die and engraving businesses. Since the merger in 1992, the business has been developed as a manufacturer of medals & pins, of top quality 2D & 3D products, making extensive use of the stamping, coining and spin casting processes. Our business strategy has relied mainly on the manufacturing process which has been at the heart of our activities. Although we do deal directly with some large customers, we rely mainly on a network of regional distributors to identify and service customers.
