Durable Identification & Labeling

Engraved Tags for Equipment, Assets, Shelves, Doors & Identification

Create durable 3"x2" engraved tags for equipment identification, asset labeling, bins, shelves, doors, lockers, room identification and other applications that benefit from long-lasting, easy-to-read engraved information. Choose from a broad range of text/background color combinations for contrast, color coding or branding.

Clear Identification

Use names, numbers, room information, instructions or asset identifiers in a compact durable format.

Color-Coding Options

Use contrasting text/background combinations to organize departments, areas, equipment classes or branding systems.

Versatile Applications

The 3"x2" format works well where more information is needed than on a small name badge.
