Embossed metal tags are the go-to option for identification solutions that need to withstand harsh conditions for extended periods of time. Embossed metal has raised characters which make it a nearly permanent solution for labeling products and equipment.
Not going to put your labels through a ton of wear and tear? Embossed metal tags are still excellent in normal conditions as well. The raised text makes them easily readable even at distances, and color options make them a quick way to identify and sort.

Materials Used for Embossed Metal Tags
Embossed metal tags are made with a variety of metals to best fit your application.
Anodized aluminum offers a lightweight solution that is very durable. Stainless steel tags provide the highest level of durability. Brass tags tarnish over time for a worn, vintage appearance.
Some of the most common metals include:
- Aluminum
- Stainless steel
- Cold-rolled steel
- Brass
The Embossing Process
All our embossed metal tags are made in-house in the USA.
A custom-made die set is used which allows for the same information to be imprinted on each tag. We also have the tooling capabilities for sequential numbering.
Our embossed metal tags can also be imprinted with variable data (different information on each label).
The Durability of Our Embossed Metal Tags
One of the most important factors when it comes to identification labels is durability.
Our embossed metal tags are rated for 20+ years outdoors. Our tags are made to withstand rough handling and extreme temperatures in industrial environments.
In addition, if the raised characters are painted over or get dirty, they still remain legible. This makes embossed tags superior to other engraved tags of the same material.
Color Options for Embossed Tags
A standout feature of embossed metal tags is the addition of color. Embossed tags made of anodized aluminum material can be nearly any color. This is an excellent option for color coding inventory or assets.
Uses for Embossed Tags
Metal embossed tags are used in nearly any industry and application imaginable.
Serialized embossing is perfect for tracking assets or jobs. For example, telephone pole tags are exposed to the elements 24/7.
Other embossed tag applications include:
- Job Tags
- Asset Tags
- Valve Tags (Steam Trap)
- Telephone Pole Tags
- Serial Number Tags
- Super Elevation Tags
- Inventory Traceability
- Product Identification
