Etched Plates
The gold standard for high-detail, multi-dimensional identification. Chemically engraved for unmatched durability and prestige.
Chemical Etching & High-Detail Graphics
Etched metal plates combine chemical engraving with computer-generated graphics to create custom metal etched plates for diverse commercial applications. The process uses a "resist" to remove targeted areas of metal, creating a recessed image that can be filled with colored enamels or left natural for a sophisticated textured look.
These plates are among the most durable identification options available. Even in extreme environments where surface colors might fade over decades, the etched image remains permanently visible in the metal surface.
Technical Capabilities:
- Premium Materials: Available in Brass, Stainless Steel, Aluminum, Copper, and Nickel Silver.
- Depth & Texture: Etching provides a multi-dimensional finish with optional frosting or hand-rubbed antiquing.
- Enamel Filling: Recessed areas can be filled with high-durability paints for vibrant, long-lasting contrast.
- Ideal for high-detail machine plates, ADA signage, plaques, and prestigious awards.
