Engraving Artwork & Logos

Logos to be engraved must be black and white, vector-based artwork. Vector artwork is created using software such as Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop and or Corel Draw and can be scaled to any size without affecting the quality of the image. In using Adobe Programs, it is usually formatted and saved as .eps file.

ColorFill
A color setup fee of $50.00 per color and a $10.00 per piece charge will apply on Acrylics and Wood Items.

Perpetual Awards & Plates
A perpetual trophy or plaque is an award that has room for many names. Perpetual trophies are usually for annual events. For example, you could order an employee of the month plaque with 12 name slots or a fantasy football trophy with perpetual base so names can be added each season.
We can turn any award into a perpetual award. There may be limitations on the amount of names that can be added, which is based on the size of the bases or plaque and size of the engraved name plates. We will let you know what those limitations are when constructing the award. We will save your nameplate files and can ship out to you new plates that will fit your trophy base or plaque as you announce and recognize each new winner.
Additional engraving and a minimal shipping charge (we can normally ship via USPS Mail) will apply for new plates that are shipped separately off the award.

Why We Can't Work From Scans

Do You Use The PMS (Pantone) Color Matching System?
Yes. However, it is difficult to guarantee a 100% exact color match, as printing on promotional products (golf shirts, pens, T-shirts, coffee mugs) is not the same as printing on paper.
In certain instances, there is a PMS surcharge if we have to mix the exact pantone color for your order.
