Etching

Etching is a surface treatment method in which a surface is treated with a substance to trigger a chemical reaction that partly dissolves the surface material. In case of metal and an acid, this is a so-called redox reaction. You could call it controlled, deliberate corrosion.

Nijdeken often offers the etching service for serial production of tag plates, machine plates, logo plates, and emblems. Etching is often a good alternative to engraving.

We can take care of etching in various commonly used materials, such as 304 stainless steel, 316L stainless steel, copper, and phosphor bronze with various thicknesses.
