Precious Metals

When it comes to making a good impression in the corporate world, it’s hard to beat the timeless elegance of an engraved or digitally imprinted metal name tag.

To make our metal nametags, we start a with fine, high-quality aluminum foundation enhanced by a brushed finish. This finish is typically gold or silver but can also be white or bronze; many find that the silver or white background tends to show color better.

Once a color selection has been made, we either engrave or digitally imprint the nametag with your text and logo. With engraving, the surface of the name tag is etched with a diamond tip cutter to reveal the nametag’s core color, making it an ideal choice for more basic, two-color images and text. With digital imprinting, a full spectrum of colors can be added to the name tag’s surface, allowing for more complex logos and other multi-color images. (Keep in mind, however, that while exact PMS colors cannot be matched, most can be accurately approximated.)

After your nametag has been created, the corners are rounded to give it a professional appearance. As a finishing touch, we often recommend adding metal badge frame (shown right). These metal frames, which come in silver or gold, are especially popular for our line of executive name tags. In no time at all, you’ll be on your way to making an excellent first – and lasting – impression.
