Anodised nameplates are a great way to improve the look and performance of your labels. If you are looking for a durable and attractive finish for your products, anodising is a great option.
ANODISING: DURABLE & LONG LASTING.
Anodised nameplates are made of aluminum that has been anodised, which is a process that creates a hard, protective oxide layer on the surface of the metal. This layer makes the nameplate more resistant to scratching, corrosion, and fading, making it a durable and long-lasting option.
Anodised nameplates are also available in a variety of colours, so you can choose one that matches your companies branding or the aesthetic of your product.
Anodised nameplates are resistant to corrosion, making them ideal for use in outdoor applications. They also retain their colour well, even after years of exposure to harsh elements.
If you are looking for a durable, corrosion-resistant, and customisable nameplate, anodised nameplates are a great option.
WHAT ARE ANODISED NAMEPLATES AND HOW ARE THEY MADE?
To achieve the anodic nature of the product, the metal is first treated with acid and electricity to create a hard dye receptive anodised coating on the surface.
The image is then printed using special dye inks, which are absorbed by the anodic layer to become part of the actual aluminium.
The anodic dye, penetrating deep into the aluminium, produces labels that are much more resistant to abrasion than surface printed inks.
Anodised nameplates offer a range of advantages that make them a popular choice in various industries and applications. One of their key benefits is their exceptional durability.
Through the anodisation process, a protective oxide layer is formed on the surface of the nameplate, making it highly resistant to corrosion, scratches, and fading caused by UV exposure. This longevity ensures that anodised nameplates remain legible and retain their professional appearance even in harsh environments.
Durability
Anodised aluminium is a very durable material, making it ideal for use in extremely harsh environments. It is resistant to corrosion, abrasion, and chemicals, so it can withstand years of wear and tear.
Colour Stability
The colour of anodised aluminium is very stable, so it will not fade or discolour over time. This makes aluminium a great choice for nameplates that need to be highly visible, such as those on machinery or industrial equipment.
Cost Effective
Anodised nameplates are a cost-effective option, especially when compared to other materials such as stainless steel or brass. They are also relatively easy to produce, so you can get custom nameplates made quickly and easily.
Long Lifespan
Anodised aluminium nameplates can last for many years, even in harsh environments. This makes them a fantastic investment for businesses and organisations that need durable nameplates.
MATERIALS
Material choice is a critical step in the design process. The material used for a product will have a significant impact on its performance, cost, and sustainability. There are many factors to consider when choosing a material, including the application, the environment, the budget, and the desired aesthetic.
We stock a wide range of material each with it’s own unique characteristics. If you require something that isn’t listed, please get in touch with our sales team who will do their upmost to source the material you require.
We have excellent, long standing relationships with our suppliers and are able to source material at a fraction of the cost of most competitors.
If you already have the material, we can print on customer’s own material and further reduce costs.

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED ETCHED NAMEPLATES?
Etched nameplates present a host of compelling advantages, making them a preferred choice for businesses seeking durable and high-quality identification solutions.
One of their primary benefits lies in their exceptional durability. Through the chemical etching process, these nameplates are rendered highly resistant to fading, scratching, and wear, ensuring that the markings remain legible and professional-looking over an extended period. This longevity makes etched nameplates ideal for use in harsh environments, where other identification methods might falter.
