Engraved corporate gifts make superb custom promotional products by Jack Ritchies
Engraved corporate gifts cause some confusion in the minds of even experienced gift buyers - and in point of fact, promotional gift sales personnel included - who request engraving when they actually are looking for chemical etching; and they are not by themselves in not appreciating the difference in the various marking methods.
Hand engraving is not used to engrave a personalized business gift now due to the economics of the labour market; and it slow, expensive and not very accurate and only seen in some departmen stores for engraving one-off pen gifts. And further, it is no match for laser engraved corporate gifts.
Laser engraving can accomplish complex and intricate designs speedily, accurately and comparatively inexpensively on most custom promotional products.
However, it is a fact, that many corporate logo gifts which appear to be engraved are not engraved at all and sometimes even the most experienced eye can be initially misled.
Personalized business gifs such as glass and crystal are often branded using a stencil and a sandblasting cabinet. Nothing inherently wrong in this providing the customer is aware that they are paying for sandblasting and not laser engraving or chemical etching.
The sandblasting method used on many engraved corporate gifts is suitable for most glass and crystal and is often used in personalized paperweights with either a logo and strap line or sometimes a personal name as well.
The engraved images can be filled with various colors to produce a most pleasing effect. However, you should be aware that this method is only suitable for spot colors and is not possible to reproduce a full color image like this.
If a club crest or coat-of-arms is required on glass or crystal a transfer print will be the most economical process as hand painting will be too expensive even on smaller quantities - say fewer than 25 or so.
Other promotional give aways and recognition products that benefit from laser engraving are identity badges, name badges, conference badges, promotional coasters, advertising coasters, award plaques, glass paperweights, crystal paperweights and desk name plates.
Steel, brass and aluminum promotional give aways are most eye-catching if laser engraved thus allowing the base metal to come through the coating creating a pleasing impression. Likewise, other promotional give aways such as identity badges, name badges, conference badges are often quite stunning when thjey show shrough a colored background.
That most popular of all promotional gifts, advertising pens, are elevated to another level when used as engraved corporate gifts but, of course, this is only justified when the pen gifts are of the appropriate quality to substantiate their use as up-market engraved corporate gifts.
