Overview
Photo-anodising develops the image inside the porous oxide layer of the aluminium and then seals it. The result is a plate whose marking cannot be scratched, solvent-wiped or sun-bleached away, because there is nothing sitting on the surface to remove. It is the standard answer for rating plates and serial numbers that must stay readable for the working life of a machine.
Key points
- Image sealed inside the metal, not printed on top
- Withstands solvents, salt spray and UV
- Serial numbers and barcodes marked variably
- Supplied self-adhesive, punched or plain

Questions
Anodised Metal Labels — questions we are asked
What material is used for Anodised Metal Labels?
Anodised aluminium, 0.3 mm to 1.5 mm. We specify the material against the job it actually has to do rather than supplying a single default — tell us the application and the conditions it will see, and we will confirm the build.
Can Anodised Metal Labels carry batch codes or serial numbers?
Yes. Serial numbers and barcodes. Variable data is printed from your file or generated here, and where an audit trail matters we record the number ranges issued against each delivery.
Can Anodised Metal Labels be made in a custom size or shape?
Yes. Cutting tools are made on our own premises, so a custom die profile is a matter of days rather than a wait on an outside toolmaker. Send the dimensions, a drawing or a sample of the container and we will confirm the tooling and quote it.
What is the minimum order quantity for Anodised Metal Labels?
Quantities are quoted per job rather than fixed, because the economics change with the size, the number of colours and the material. Tell us the run size you have in mind and we will tell you honestly whether it is viable and what it costs.
How do I supply artwork?
Print-ready PDF, AI, EPS or CDR with 3 mm bleed and fonts converted to outlines. If you do not have artwork we can set it from your logo and copy. Nothing goes to plate or die until you have approved a digital proof.
Need a label built for your product?
Send us the size, the material and the surface it goes on. We will quote with a lead time, and make a sample before you commit to a production run.
