Engraved Name Tags: Permanent, Scratch-Proof Identification That Never Fades

A printed name tag places ink on the surface. Within months, that ink scratches, fades from sun exposure, and chips from daily handling. You end up re-ordering constantly, and your team looks inconsistent in the meantime. Engraving eliminates that cycle entirely by cutting the design into the material itself. There is nothing on the surface to wear away.

The result is a tag that looks as crisp on day one thousand as it did on day one. For any business that values a polished, permanent professional image, engraved tags are the clear long-term investment.

Laser engraving uses a focused beam to vaporize material, producing extremely fine detail and crisp lines. It is ideal for intricate logos, small text, and complex graphics. Rotary etching uses a spinning tool to physically carve the design and creates a deeper, more tactile cut. It excels at bold lettering, larger text, and tags that need a pronounced three-dimensional feel.

Both methods are permanent and scratch-proof. Our team will recommend the best technique for your specific logo and design during the quoting process, and your proof will show the exact result before production.

We engrave on solid metals including bronze, copper, and sterling silver, producing deep, tactile lettering that catches light beautifully. Gold plating over engraved metal creates a high-end executive look. On plastic, our two-tone engraving reveals a contrasting color beneath the surface for a clean, modern result. On wood, laser engraving produces a distinctive burned finish that highlights the natural grain.

Color fill is available for metal engravings, allowing your logo and text to pop with added contrast in your exact brand colors. If your logo requires specific multi-color reproduction, we can also recommend our full-color UV printing process as an alternative or complement.
