Benefits of an Etched Nameplate

Posted by Christine on | 5 Comments

Having a Metal Nameplate can benefit your company in numerous ways. Not only does it provide stylish and attractive branding, it’s also a great investment!

Your custom artwork is deeply etched into the metal of your choice. Typically etched into Aluminum, Stainless Steel, Brass, Bronze, Monel, Nickel Silver, CRS, or Zinc, we are capable of helping you make the best decision depending on usage.

After you have decided the best material, size, application method, and shape of your nameplate, our specialists can help quote your product accordingly. Once production begins, we take the time to fill in your etched product with long-lasting, colorful baked enamels or epoxies to ensure durability. Etched Nameplates can withstand the harshest conditions, guaranteeing that your logo, brand, product identification, and general safety warnings will not fade for years. This is may be dire for certain information related to the product such as: serial numbers, company contact information, make/model numbers, or other important safety identifications. Knowing that you won’t be forced to replace these nameplates for many years due to UV light, water, or other harsh conditions can lower your costs and increase your profit.
