Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What makes your engraving more permanent than other methods?

The key is depth. Many common methods like screen printing or basic laser etching only mark the very top surface, making them susceptible to scratching and fading. Our process utilizes high-power lasers or diamond-tipped tools to physically carve and remove material deep into the metal. This deep engraving creates a truly permanent mark that will not rub off or fade away over time, ensuring lasting legibility.

What kinds of materials can you engrave on?

While we specialize in metals, our capabilities are broad. Our South Carolina facility is equipped to engrave materials including stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, precious metals like sterling silver and gold, as well as plated items. We also work with classic award metals such as bronze and copper. Please contact us with your specific item and material, and we can confirm compatibility.

How do you ensure my complex logo or custom design is engraved accurately?

Accuracy is guaranteed through our meticulous design and proofing process. You provide us with your digital artwork (logo, text, image), and our expert designers create a detailed digital proof. This mock-up shows exactly how the engraving will appear on your item. We send this proof to you for review and approval before any engraving begins, ensuring the final product perfectly matches your vision.

Can I get just one item engraved, and how fast is the turnaround?

Yes, absolutely. We have a “no minimum order” policy, making our high-quality custom engraving services accessible for single gifts, prototypes, or personal items. Because we handle everything in-house in the USA, our standard turnaround is already very fast. For the most urgent needs, we can often complete engraving quickly and utilize our overnight shipping option to return your item immediately.
