Aluminum nameplates have the property to be very weather-resistant. Moreover, these are available in different colors, ranging from classic silver to champagne and black. For the finishing of an aluminum nameplate you can choose between mat (brushed) and shiny (polished). Coloring of the engraving takes place in the color (s) of your choice. Mounting these nameplates is usually done with glue or with ornamental screws.

What information is required to request a quotation or order for a nameplate?
If you already have an idea of the specifications of your nameplate, it would be helpful to include this information in your request. This may include the following information:
- material
- format
- text and any logos
- colours to be used
- mounting method
- any special finishing
If you are not yet sure which direction you want to go, we can always advise you by telephone, e-mail or when you visit our showroom, where you can view sample plates.
In which file formats should I submit my designs?
In general, we can start working directly with a vector file saved as .pdf, .ai or .eps. In exceptional cases, high-resolution .jpeg or .png files are also usable. The better the quality of the supplied design, the better the engraving and the end result will be.
Don't have a design in your possession? No problem. We can always create a design (with supplement).
What is the best way to attach a self-adhesive nameplate?
Self-adhesive nameplates are supplied as standard with a double-sided adhesive strip. By removing the outer strip, the nameplate can be stuck to a flat surface. For rough or uneven surfaces, a foam tape can be applied, which can be placed with additional use of silicone or Tec7. Cleaning and degreasing the surface is strongly recommended before placing, as this ensures a stronger bond.
In which colours can I get my engraving?
Engravings can be painted in any desired RAL colour. We offer a number of standard colours for colouring the engraving. Specific colours are of course possible, but at an additional cost. Please note that gradual colour transitions cannot be achieved with painting. For this we are happy to offer a printed plate.
Can an aluminum nameplate oxidize over time?
Aluminum is very resistant to weathering. The metal is protected by a very thin (and invisible) layer of aluminum oxide, which hermetically seals the rest of the metal against further oxidation.
What is the difference between an aluminum and stainless steel nameplate?
Stainless steel is more durable and stronger than aluminum. On the other hand, it also has a slightly higher weight and is therefore slightly more expensive than aluminum.
