Custom Award That Builds Over Time

Some recognition moments deserve more than a one-time award. The Designed for Growth Perpetual Trophy is built to accumulate meaning starting with a custom acrylic base and top, then expanding with individual inserts as each new recipient earns their place. It’s a living record of your team’s achievements, displayed proudly year after year.

Ideal for ongoing programs where the award itself becomes part of your culture and not just a gift that gets shelved.

When This Award Works Best

Employee of the Month / Quarter

Display the trophy in a common area and add a new insert each cycle. Recipients see their name join a growing roster of recognized colleagues and that visibility matters.

Years of Service Milestones

Start the trophy at a 5-year mark, then add inserts at 10, 15, and 20 years. One award tells the full story of a career.

Annual Top Performer Programs

Sales teams, production leaders, or customer service standouts. A perpetual trophy reinforces that the standard carries forward, year over year.

Department or Team-Level Recognition

Give ownership of the trophy to a team and let it travel. Each insert marks a chapter in that team’s history.

When recognition is visible and cumulative, it signals to the entire team that the standard is consistent and not a one-time event. Research in workplace psychology consistently shows that public, ongoing recognition outperforms periodic spot awards in building sustained engagement.

Here’s what to have ready before you customize:

•       Your company logo (.eps, .ai, or .png at 300dpi or higher)

•       The name and title or achievement of your first recipient

•       Whether you want to order the base now and inserts separately as your program cycles, or bundle them upfront
