Advantages of Laser Engraved Personalised Pens

Personalised Pens in plastic are normally screen printed or pad printed. However, we have one more option with promotional metal pens, – engraving but in particular, laser engraving. I have listed the features and benefits of this type of personalisation as follows

Features & Benefits of Laser engraved Personalised Pens

• Permanence: As laser engraved printed pens have their surface removed by the burning action of the laser beam, the image becomes a permanent feature of the pen. This has significant benefits for the longevity of the personalised message compared to conventionally printed pens. Metal promotional pens when printed with an epoxy type of ink, although fairly permanent, will eventually succumb to the abrasive action of constant contact with daily items such as coins, keys and hard items in general.
• Small Orders: Conventionally personalised pens require a minimum quantity of at least 50 pieces to make them economically viable. On the other hand laser engraved promotional pens can be printed in quantities as low as one with relatively little cost. The benefit of this for distributors is that it will allow you to get orders from clients that will be a great door-opener for hopefully larger and more profitable orders later on. Just imagine being able to provide the chief-executive of a large corporation with his own personalised pen – it will leave a lasting impression.
• Fine Detail: There is a finite limit to the level of detail that can be produced through conventional printing. Laser engraving can produce images one pixel wide so that even the finest logo or crest can be reproduced in staggering detail. Again, as distributors, you can impress your client with your ability to steer them in the right direction if you feel that a certain logo requires laser engraving instead of conventional printing.
• Metallic Coloured Print: No other process on metal pens can produce a true metallic appearance and this is probably one of laser engraving’s main advantages. As the engraving process removes the surface of the pen it exposes the base metal. The benefit of this is that it adds that extra touch of luxury even to a modestly-priced promotional pen.

So there we have it, Laser engraved pens offer so many benefits if our distributors can get the message out there to their target audience. Remember samples and supporting literature is freely available from your trade-exclusive supplier, The Pen Warehouse – Home of Promotional Pens.
