Embossed nameplates in brass, sheet steel or stainless steel – relief-style lettering and symbols that stay visible even under heavy wear, dirt or repeated repainting.
Embossed nameplates form lettering and symbols by raising or debossing them into the metal surface, rather than just printing or sticking them on. This relief-style lettering stays permanently visible, even under heavy wear, dirt or repeated repainting of the surroundings – a clear advantage over printed labels in heavily used environments. We emboss in brass (elegant, long-lasting, oxidation-resistant), sheet steel and stainless steel (resistant to heat, chemicals and abrasion), and finish on request with a baked-on or protective coating for additional weather and UV protection, in one or multiple colors.
Embossed nameplates have proven especially useful as water-level and flood markers outdoors, as permanent instructional and marking signs on buildings and plant equipment, as sequentially numbered inspection and tooling tags in industry, and for brand embossing in the galvanizing process, where conventional stickers or prints couldn't withstand the thermal load. Embossing is also a particularly durable alternative for nameplates that are regularly cleaned or mechanically stressed.
Whether a single piece with a custom crest or series production with sequential numbering: we advise you on material, embossing depth and finish, and supply archived layout data for precisely matching reorders even years later. Looking for a cast sign with raised relief lettering as well? Take a look at our cast nameplates.
