Stainless Steel &
Brass Nameplates
Laser-engraved and chemically etched SS 304, SS 316L, and brass nameplates with permanent sub-surface legends — built to your exact drawing for equipment that must be identified for its entire service life, even in corrosive, marine, or high-heat environments.
The only label that won't corrode with the equipment.
SS 316L's molybdenum content resists chloride pitting that destroys 304, aluminium, and plastic in marine, offshore, and chemical plant environments. It survives what the equipment survives.
A legend etched into solid metal.
Laser and chemical etch processes remove material from the substrate itself. There is no ink layer, no coating, and no adhesive legend — the marking is physically part of the metal and cannot be worn or washed away.
Brass where permanence meets precision aesthetics.
Deep-etched brass with enamel colour infill is the standard for architectural signage, valve tags, and award-grade nameplates where appearance must equal durability. Antique or polished finish to spec.
Material Selection
Choose the Right Grade
SS 304 for general industrial use, SS 316L for marine and chemical environments, and Brass for architectural and precision applications. If you're unsure, our team will recommend based on your environment.

Construction
Engineered Layer by Layer
From raw SS or brass stock to a finished nameplate — each processing stage is controlled to deliver a marking that outlasts the equipment it identifies.

Capabilities
Feature & Build Variants
Grade, marking method, finish, serialisation, compliance marking, and fixing options — configured precisely to your nameplate specification and operating environment.
OEM Manufacturing
Built for Serious Production
Engineered to Drawing
DXF, DWG, or PDF input. Legend layout, hole positions, and edge profile reproduced exactly — revision-controlled and repeatable across every batch.
Marine & Chemical Grade
SS 316L withstands chloride environments, acidic washdowns, and salt-spray conditions where standard 304 or aluminium would fail within months.
Permanent Sub-Surface Mark
Fibre laser and chemical etch legends penetrate below the surface oxide layer — impervious to solvents, abrasion, and decades of industrial cleaning.
Finish & Mark Verified
Etch depth, surface finish Ra, legend legibility, and dimensional accuracy checked to your acceptance criteria on every production batch.
Applications
Industries Served
Specified wherever standard aluminium or plastic labelling fails — corrosive washdown environments, extreme temperatures, regulatory compliance, and high-end architectural applications.
