It is possible that they made badges for their own workers , they had the machinery and would have had to run trial/test pressings before the machinery passed final inspections.
Also , by using the standard Admiralty OWS design with no company name or logo on the front , they may have hoped/managed to initially avoid the ban on 'unofficial' badges that was introduced in March/April 1915.
