The Complete Guide to Engraved Labels: Durable, Professional, and Built to Last

In a world where information needs to be clear, permanent, and easy to read, engraved labels stand out as one of the most reliable solutions. From industrial environments to office spaces, engraved labels are trusted for their precision, durability, and professional appearance.

Whether you’re marking equipment, organising cables, or adding identification to control panels, engraved labels offer a long-lasting solution that printed stickers simply can’t match.

At National Engravers, we specialise in manufacturing high-quality engraved labels to suit any application. With decades of experience, we provide durable and fully customisable solutions for businesses across the UK.


What Are Engraved Labels?

Engraved labels are identification tags or plates that have text, numbers, or designs physically cut into the surface of the material. Instead of printing ink on top, engraving removes material to create a permanent marking.

Common materials for engraved labels include:

  • Traffolyte – A hard-wearing laminate, ideal for industrial use.
  • Acrylic – Lightweight and available in a wide range of colours.
  • Metal (Brass, Stainless Steel, Aluminium) – Highly durable and heat-resistant.

Why Choose Engraved Labels from National Engravers?

The popularity of engraved labels comes down to three key benefits:

  1. Durability
    Our labels are made to last, resisting wear and tear even in the toughest environments.
  2. Professional Appearance
    Crisp, clean text ensures your labels are easy to read and look high quality.
  3. Customisation
    At National Engravers, we can produce labels in any size, shape, material, and colour combination you need.

Engraving Methods

At National Engravers, we use advanced technology to ensure precision and consistency:

Caring for Your Engraved Labels

While engraved labels are low-maintenance, keeping them clean will help maintain their legibility. Simply wipe with a damp cloth and mild detergent—avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.
