Benefits & Process of Engraving
Engraving is the best way to produce a high-quality complex pattern on thin, unusual, or on uneven/curved surfaces.
The patterns are made by vaporizing material using a precision laser beam. There are no limitations of cutting tools, which wear out and become dull over time. The laser is computer controlled ensuring accuracy and replication for fast order fulfillment.
It is a quick, efficient, and cost-effective solution that isn't slowed down by cutting tool replacement, or manual techniques.
Engraving works with a wide variety of materials of varying degrees of thickness and density. Engravable items include metals, coated metals, stainless steel, carbon steel, and plastics. Graphics, logos, pictures, and text can be engraved on round, uneven, and other complex surfaces. Ordinary objects can be transformed into works of art. Need inspiration? Check out our ideas page.

Logos & Branding
Engraving for Marketing: A designing strategy that helps people quickly identify their products and organizations. This gives people a reason to buy their products instead of their competitors. The simplest example of this is promotional products using 'top of mind' advertising keeping a brand in a consumer's consciousness.
Recognition & Appreciation
Lack of appreciation is one of the top 5 reasons employees quit. Compensation may provide monetary satisfaction, but it doesn’t feed your employees’ underlying desire to feel valued. Monthly recognition using engraved plates on perpetual plaques is used to give positive reinforcement based on performance. Incentive leaders, coaches, and teachers use this to extract loyalty and high performance from employees, students & athletes. Recognition capitalizes on these innate tendencies to positively influence behavior and benefit your business.
Children's Positive Reinforcement
Positive reinforcement refers to the introduction of a desirable or pleasant stimulus after a behavior. The desirable stimulus reinforces the behavior, getting the behavior to reoccur. Affirming completion of a season, semester, or goal through engraved items like trophies, tumblers, or medals, is the best way to get the desirable behavior to consistently reoccur.
Competition Rewards
Rewards are the items and experiences that employees earn for meeting goals, turning in exceptional work, being a team player, or any other recognition parameters that a manager puts in place. Rewards can be monetary or non-monetary. People love seeing their names on awards and receiving public recognition. Engraving pens, clocks, acrylics, gift sets, beverage holders, and portfolios are only a few ways to encourage employees to do their best.
Theft & Counterfeiting Prevention
The only thing worse for thieves than an ugly tool is one that has some personally identifying marks permanently engraved into the tool. Find an easily seen spot on the tool and add something like: “Stolen from John Doe's Shop, Call (123) 456-XXXX for REWARD.” Marking and engraving a tool lowers the tool’s resale value and increases the risk of catching the thief.
Fire & Corporate Safety Marking & Labeling
Engraving is perfect for quick access in times of emergency, or high stress. Uses include OSHA requirements, QR codes, electrical panel labeling, warehouse rack organization, or fire truck and ambulance labels.
Loved One's Safety, IDs & Medic Alert Objects
ID bracelets, medic alerts, dog tags, etc., can provide a warning to responding medical teams for any health condition, as well as communicate your wishes regarding resuscitation. People with allergies to medications, food, or external conditions will benefit from wearing engraved objects. Folks living with conditions such as autism, Alzheimer’s or dementia, diabetes, heart disease, COPD, epilepsy, and other medical concerns can easily relay the necessary information for getting proper care in an emergency – whether you’re conscious and alert, or not.
Long Lasting
Laser engraving is permanent. A laser engraved mark will remain readable for the part's useful life with better readability than other direct part marking technologies
