Stainless steel metal tags are available plain, or with a chemically-etched customised design. Chemical Etching is a process where the image or background is chemically engraved (etched) into the surface of the metal using acid. This produces a sunken area on the surface of the plate; this recess is filled with stove enamel, which is then baked on for maximum durability.
Chemically-etched stainless steel labels, tags and nameplates are used in mining and other hazardous environments because the etching process ensures that the information is still legible even when the stove enamel has been destroyed, for example by fire or explosion. Chemical etching is also often used for Registered Office plaques, which require a logo or crest with fine details, which would be difficult to achieve with machine engraving.
