Photo Quality Images on Real Aluminum

What is alumamark?

Introduced in 2001, AlumaMark® is the only CO2 laser markable material that produces photo-quality images on real metal without etching, engraving, or adding chemicals

 

AlumaMark is specialized aluminum that may be imaged or marked using a CO2 laser. Unique among laserable substrates, AlumaMark allows one to create black, positive marks on silver, gold, bronze, brass, or colored backgrounds. Designed so that it may be marked using low power settings, AlumaMark is used to produce Nameplates, Name Badges, Plaque and Trophy Plates, Labels, Interior Signage, and more.
 
Because AlumaMark is not etched or engraved, but rather marked through a thermal reaction with the heat of a laser, it is possible to create lighter marks and halftone shades. This makes AlumaMark ideal for creating photograph and detailed artwork reproductions.

Why Use alumamark?

Real Metal:

AlumaMark is not another painted metal or metalized plastic. Real metal means higher perceived value and higher profits.

Photographic Detail:

Because AlumaMark uses a thermal marking process rather than an engraving or cutting action, it allows for very high detail and even shades of grey and brown to produce the most striking photo & graphic reproductions!
