Update

UFBA Service Honours - Price Reduction from 15 September 2026

Issue date:
We’re pleased to let members know that the price of a number of UFBA Service Honours items will decrease from 15 September 2026.
 
The reductions apply to honours containing precious metals, including gold and silver, and reflect the lower prices we are currently paying for these materials.
Depending on the item, prices will reduce by between 3% and 12%.
 
The UFBA regularly reviews Service Honours pricing to ensure costs reflect the price of the materials used to produce these important awards. When precious metal prices increased significantly, this had an impact on the cost of honours containing gold and silver. With these costs now lower, we are pleased to be able to pass those savings on to our member brigades.
 
The new pricing will take effect from 15 September 2026 and will apply to eligible Service Honours items ordered from that date.
 
UFBA Service Honours recognise the dedication and contribution of brigade members who have given years of service to their brigades, communities and Fire and Emergency New Zealand. We remain committed to providing high-quality honours that appropriately recognise these significant service milestones.
