TROUTDALE, OR – October 26, 2023 – BLG Flooring LLC, a US-based manufacturer known for its commitment to quality and precision, has expanded its capabilities to include the crafting of custom challenge coins, with a recent focus on producing highly detailed commemorative coins for the United States Air Force (USAF). While traditionally known for flooring solutions, BLG Flooring’s investment in advanced manufacturing technology and skilled artisans has allowed them to seamlessly transition into producing intricate, collectible items like challenge coins. “We’ve always prided ourselves on delivering top-notch quality and exceeding customer expectations,” says a spokesperson for BLG Flooring LLC, located at 467 SW Cherry Park Rd, Troutdale, OR, 97060-1429. “Taking on these USAF challenge coins felt like a natural extension of that. It's a chance to apply our precision manufacturing to something that really honors service and dedication.” Beyond Flooring: A Commitment to Craftsmanship BLG Flooring LLC isn’t your typical flooring company branching out. They’ve built a reputation on delivering consistently high-quality flooring products – from hardwood and laminate to luxury vinyl plank – for both residential and commercial clients. This foundation of quality control and attention to detail is what allows them to move into more intricate projects like challenge coins with such confidence. “We already had a lot of the technology and expertise in place,” explains the spokesperson. “Things like CNC machining, polishing, and quality inspection are core to what we do in flooring. It’s just a matter of adapting those skills to a smaller, more detailed scale.” The USAF Challenge Coin: A Symbol of Camaraderie & Achievement Challenge coins are a time-honored tradition within the military and other organizations. They aren’t just souvenirs; they're symbols of unit cohesion, personal achievement, and shared experience. Each coin tells a story, commemorating a specific event, deployment, or accomplishment. For the USAF, these coins are particularly meaningful, representing the dedication, skill, and sacrifice of the men and women who serve in the air force. BLG Flooring is currently producing a variety of USAF challenge coins, catering to different units, squadrons, and special events. The company works closely with clients to create custom designs that accurately reflect the unit’s history, mission, and values. “We understand the importance of getting the details right,” says the spokesperson. “These aren't just collectible items; they're symbols of pride and belonging. We take that responsibility very seriously.” Precision Manufacturing: From Design to Delivery BLG Flooring’s process begins with a collaborative design phase. Clients work with the company’s design team to finalize the coin’s artwork, including the unit insignia, motto, and any other desired elements. Once the design is approved, the coins are manufactured using a combination of CNC machining, die striking, and meticulous polishing. “We use high-quality materials and state-of-the-art equipment to ensure that every coin meets our exacting standards,” explains the spokesperson. “We pay attention to every detail, from the sharpness of the lines to the richness of the colors.” Key Features of BLG Flooring’s USAF Challenge Coins: Custom Designs: BLG Flooring works with clients to create unique designs that reflect their unit’s identity.
