Laser Engraved Brass Plaques
One usually expects to see brass plaques which are deep engraved and painted. However there are times when small text or images with fine detail are required. This is where the latest technologies of the laser comes into play. Although not engraved into the metal the lettering is just as permanent and actually tougher than the metal beneath.

Anodisal Aluminium - Black, Blue, Red Green, Gold
The anodisal aluminium has a tough baked gloss finish. The letters are engraved through this finish to show the silver / white surface beneath. As we use a laser for this process the lettering can be very small if it is required. We can also use very detailed images including line drawings and even good quality photos.



Stone-Like Corian Plaques
A modern material with a cold stone like finish. It is very durable, fade proof and vitually maintenance free. It comes in a variety of stone finishes including slate and in two thicknesses. It also has the advantage of being able to engrave and paintfill, smaller letters than you can with brass or laminate. Letters can be paint filled with black, white, silver, gold or blue.

 


Chemical Etching

Chemically Etched Steel, Bronze and Brass
Ideal for small text, images with fine detail or if several colours are needed. The main benefit of chemical etching over engraving is no mechanical stress to the material and no cutter marks as the unwanted material is removed by chemicals leaving clear sharp flat surface detail. Not as cost effective for small signs unless there is a large amount of text.
