Production Style

For this product, we have 2 production style options for you. Choose between direct engraving and sublimation.

Direct Engraving

Laser engraving is the standard option for red alder. In this process, the laser strikes the surface of the wood and creates a shallow depression. The engraving typically is darker than the wood on the surface. Any art or logo will be modified for best engraving.

Sublimated

Sublimation is the standard option for aluminum metal. In this process, ink is heat pressed into the surface of the metal. With sublimation, we are unable to print in white. The white color will be replaced with the color of the metal. If you wish to keep the white in your artwork, select white aluminum. Products that are sublimated are only intended for indoor use. The ink will fade in direct sunlight.

If you upgrade to a laser metal, laser engraving will be the production style utilized. For more information regarding our different engraving styles, check out our FAQ or this blog post.
