What to Know Before You Buy Metal Tags

Metal tags are the most durable form of identification. When properly engraved, they can last for decades—sometimes even longer than the equipment they’re labeling.

We use the latest laser etching technology for precision and permanence. Depending on the material, we use:

Fiber lasers for stainless steel and brass
CO₂ lasers for anodized aluminum and plastics

This allows for clean, readable qr codes and barcodes, logos, and text—even in harsh environments.

Thank you again!

I made an order of custom sheet metal items for my side business with my logo. And when I got it it had no logo so I was disappointed. I had thought that I uploaded my image to their website and ordered it. But because I guess I took so long to upload it, when I placed the order the original page had expired and the logo didn’t upload. I was sad. I emailed them and they said that they would charge me the same amount for blanks and not charge me for the logo to try to rectify the matter. I was very happy with their solution and also for their response time. Steve at Inland Products was very kind to do this. And his customer service is in the 90th %tile of anyone I have dealt with. Thank you again!

A+ and then some!

Was a pleasure working with Steve from Inland Products. My company is a Sub Contractor out of NASA, performing work on the Orion space vehicle. We needed metal ID tags for our tools/equipment, and Steve gave prompt responses to my inquiries, and even offered stellar ideas. We had a tight turnaround schedule for these, and Steve managed to get them to us a day early! The tags came out looking fantastic, with our company logo laser etched into shiny blue metallic aluminum plates. The materials used were top notch, and the plates are very solid, and thick. These will most definitely stand the test of time, and abuse that our spacecraft technicians throw at them! Will most definitely be placing future orders with Inland Products through Steve. Thank you guys so much!!! A+ and then some!

Great Workmanship!

Great workmanship and perfect product for our needs! Inland was able to re-create brass plates that where discontinued by the original manufacture, and at a very reasonable price. Customer service was prompt and helpful!
