Anodized finishes on aluminum nameplates
The anodizing of aluminum
nameplates provides a much harder surface than natural aluminum. Aluminum oxide is grown out of the suface during anodizing, becoming aluminum hydrate which is extremely hard. The anodized layer of aluminum is porous in nature, lending itself to colored dyes with long life. An anodized finish on your aluminum nameplate can deliver significant product appeal.
Etching is popular on both utilitarian applications as well as product identification.
nameplates produced with an etching process provide a durable product that will weather well. Etching produces an inset design on the surface of metal
nameplates. Your branding message and/or machine tags will continue to be legible for years to come. Our in-house etching process is often complemented with screenprinting. The epoxy inks screenprinted into the inset or etched areas of the metal prove resistant to chipping and other forms of wear.
Embossed
nameplates are associated with high quality products. Embossed finishes are created by producing a die that stamps a 3d relief on the face of your nameplate. Our dies are expertly engraved to your custom design to produce any desired images, letters, numbers, or graduations. When your product identification needs to demonstrate outstanding quality, embossed
nameplates are the application you're looking for.
