About our Custom Wood Awards
Crafted from salvaged wood and laser engraved with solar power, our wooden awards are cherished symbols of recognition and appreciation, making them the perfect choice for organizations looking to make an eco-conscious impact.
Custom wood awards are an enduring symbol of success, achievement, and a commitment to sustainability.
We offer a unique collection of eco-friendly wood awards that people love to hold and feel and admire! We’ve spent over a decade designing, developing and refining our wood awards, and you won’t find them anywhere else. Every wooden award plaque has a unique grain and texture, and we design each piece to convey your special personalized message. Then we laser engrave your artwork with our solar powered laser to infuse with clean and uplifting energy from the sun! The result? Wooden awards that convey your message of thanks with authenticity, and make people feel really special, which is what you want any recognition award to do.
Wooden Award: any trophy, recognition award, or plaque that is made from wood.
Wooden awards are a great way to say thank you or appreciate someone. Wood awards are often used for sustainability awards, green initiatives, workplace awards, business awards, certification programs, student awards and conservation efforts, though they can be personalized for virtually any occasion.
Many recipients consider their personalized wood award as priceless, and often display them proudly for years as a reminder of feeling appreciated.

We plant two trees per every awards we produce!
Since our sustainability journey began in 2008, we’ve continually focussed on minimizing our environmental footprint. In that time we’ve realized that beyond conservation, we also have a responsibility to regenerate, renew, and regrow our natural world.
So we committed to planting 2 trees for every plaque, trophy and award that we make, and we partnered with Eden Reforestation Projects to help us. We chose Eden because they not only propagate and plant trees, they also protect them through to maturity, and in the process create meaningful employment in rural and impoverished communities.
As of March 2023, we’ve planted over 57,000 mangrove trees and created nearly 600 days of employment! That’s nearly 6 hectares of mangrove forests, which will capture roughly 738 tonnes of CO2 per year, year after year, and there are more to come!
What is special about wood awards by Eclipse Awards?
Our wood awards, wood trophies and wood plaques are all really popular, partly because sustainability and eco-friendly options are on everyone’s mind, but even more so because people love the warm and organic feel they offer! Our wooden awards and plaques convey a sense of authenticity and modesty that many people appreciate. In fact, some clients prefer presenting wooden awards because they convey appreciation without feeling too showy or extravagant. We've also had a lot of recipients let us know they appreciated receiving their wooden award for the same reasons.
Our wooden award plaques are made from salvaged windfallen trees, reclaimed urban timbers, and other local sources. Maple is our primary wood because of its abundance in BC, the warmth of its grain, and its beautiful bark. Plus for every wood award we make, we plant 2 mangrove trees!
As well, all of our wooden award are laser engraved with power from our rooftop solar panel system. This clean energy makes your wooden awards even more eco-friendly, and recipients love knowing that their award is infused with solar energy!
There’s something warm and reassuring about holding our wooden awards, especially when they are engraved with a personalized message of gratitude. Organizations love to present our wooden trophies and awards because people love receiving them! A well made wooden award will be coveted for a lifetime as a heartwarming reminder of feeling recognized, appreciated, and celebrated.
