The 58mm round fridge magnet, in detail
Physically this is the same pressed badge as our 58mm pin — same steel shell, same printed circle, same mylar seal — with a magnet back instead of a pin. That matters more than it sounds, because it means a fridge magnet gets the same durable domed face and full-colour print as a badge, rather than the flexible printed rubber that most cheap magnets use and that fades and curls within a year.

Where the magnet holds
It grips any ferrous steel surface: fridge doors, steel almirahs and lockers, filing cabinets, whiteboards with a steel backing, and most metal office partitions. It will not hold on stainless steel fridge doors — a good number of premium models use a stainless outer skin that a magnet slides straight off. If you are ordering these as a giveaway and the recipients are unknown, that is worth knowing rather than discovering later; it is a property of the fridge, not of the magnet.
What people order these for
Wedding return gifts are the single largest use — a photo of the couple, the date, and often the venue, handed out at the reception. Because it is a photo product, it survives the cupboard in a way that most favours do not.
Beyond weddings: baby announcements and first-birthday favours, temple and church festival souvenirs, tourism and city souvenirs, restaurant and café branding on delivery orders, school and college memorabilia for outgoing batches, and corporate desk giveaways where a magnet stays visible far longer than a printed card.
Businesses that want to stay on a customer's fridge — plumbers, tuition centres, clinics, tiffin services — order these with a phone number set large. It is a small format doing the job a flyer cannot, because nobody keeps a flyer.
Preparing artwork
Send a square or circular file at 300 DPI or higher, in JPG, PNG, PDF or AI. Build to a 68mm canvas and treat the outer 5mm as bleed: background and imagery should run to the edge of the full 68mm circle, since that ring wraps around the dome and is not visible head-on.
Photographs need more care here than logos do. Crop tight before you send — a full-length photo reduced to 58mm loses the faces entirely, and the crop we would guess at may not be the one you wanted. Faces should fill a good part of the circle. Check that nothing important sits in the outer 10mm, because that is the part that curves away.
If a phone number or a date has to be readable, set it larger than feels necessary on screen. At 58mm, text below roughly 8pt becomes hard work.
Bulk pricing
Per-piece rates fall at each quantity tier, with the sharpest drop between a small order and the first bulk tier — most of the cost is in print setup rather than in the magnet. The live tiers are in the price box at the top of this page.
You can mix designs within a single order and still pay the total-quantity rate, which is what most wedding orders do: two or three photo variants across the same guest list.
Production and delivery
Standard delivery is 5–7 business days from artwork approval, with express delivery of 2–3 days available for select pin codes. For a wedding date, message us with the date and your pin code before ordering — we would rather tell you to order earlier than miss it.
Made in Villivakkam, Chennai, shipped across India, collection welcome.
How they hold up
The mylar face takes the wear, so the print underneath stays as it was pressed. Unlike printed rubber magnets, there is nothing here to curl at the corners or fade in sunlight through a kitchen window. Keep them off a wet fridge door — the face is water-resistant but the crimp is not sealed against a soak.
