Film & TV

Badges for screen. Accuracy that holds up under the camera.

British Badge Company supplies custom and period-accurate badges, insignia and emblems for film and television productions. Whether you need authentic regimental cap badges, formation signs, fictional organisation insignia, rank markers or commemorative pieces, we work with costume, props and production design teams to deliver items that look correct on camera and feel right in the hand.

What we provide

• Period and modern military insignia – British Army, Royal Navy, RAF and Commonwealth patterns across different eras

• Bespoke fictional designs – unit, agency or organisation badges created from concept art or brief

• Enamel, metal, embroidered and composite finishes – chosen for durability under repeated handling and lighting

• Small-batch and short-run production – suitable for principal cast, supporting artists and background action

• Heraldic and historical checking – proportions, symbolism and detailing reviewed for authenticity

How we work with productions

We understand the pressures of filming schedules. Artwork can be developed from reference photographs, surviving originals, museum examples or production design drawings. Once approved, we manufacture to the required quantities with clear communication on lead times. Confidentiality is standard; we routinely work under non-disclosure agreements when required.

Our experience covers both historical accuracy (where the badge must withstand close scrutiny) and dramatic requirements (where the design needs to read clearly on screen while remaining true to the story’s world).

Getting started

Send us your brief, reference images or design files. We will respond with practical advice on materials, finishes, quantities and timescales, together with a quotation.

A badge on screen is rarely just decoration. It signals rank, belonging, era and identity. We help make sure it does that job properly.
