Custom Engraved Aluminum

Description

Need something that will last decades on a budget? Aluminum engraving doesn’t fade, scratch, or peel — and aluminum is about a third the weight of steel at a fraction of the cost.

Aluminum takes laser marking beautifully: crisp, high-contrast, and permanent on raw, brushed, or anodized surfaces. 6061 and 5052 are the workhorse alloys, anodized panels mark cleanly, and the whole category is easy on the wallet. From a single dog tag to a run of 500 serialized asset plates — single pieces or bulk orders.
