A mark in metal. Colour on a surface. A shape made from scratch.

Tell us the result you’re after. We’ll help choose the material and process, or bring a few together in one piece.

Metal engraving

Logos, lettering, line artwork and identification marks on suitable metals. We prepare the artwork around your object and agree the look of the engraving before making the finished piece.

  • Cards, tags, nameplates and flat components
  • Stainless steel, brass and aluminium, subject to finish
  • One-off personalisation and short runs

Ask about deeper detail or colour effects on suitable metals. We’ll confirm what is achievable for your specific piece.

Choose the result

One object.
More than one process.

A printed stand with an engraved metal face. A supplied object with full-colour artwork. We can plan the parts and finishes together.

Start with the surface.

The exact material, coating and shape affect the result. A photo and dimensions help us choose a process and check whether a sample is needed.

Bring the idea, too.

You don’t need to know the machine or method. Tell us how the piece will be used, how many you need and the finish you have in mind.
