A journal serves as a daily record of observations, experiences and occurrences. Even though electronic journals have been created, many consumers still want the option to manuscript their feelings and experiences in a portable journal. This allows thoughts to be addressed right away. With daily use in mind, choosing an appliqué that will stand up to frequent handling gives your product an edge within your market.

This aluminum label features process color and a gold tint which highlights the quote and adds interest to the overall design.

"Blank on Tape" Packaging Method

Are you looking for a more efficient method to apply your brand onto your products?  Why not consider our “Blank on Tape” option for packaging your nameplate.

“Blank on Tape” refers to the process in which a nameplate is applied onto a roll of adhesive.

There are several benefits to choosing this process over traditional packaging methods.  The most important benefit is the ease of assembly for high volume programs.

1)    The “Blank on Tape” process provides flat appliqués consistently oriented on a roll of tape, which decreases the chances of any mis-assembly of your brand onto your finished product.

2)    Since the appliqué is cut with the tool and simultaneously transferred onto the tape, the part releases easily, speeding up the assembly process.

3)    This process can be easily designed for automation during assembly of your product.

“Blank on Tape” offers a clean and contained pack method. Specific industries that most commonly use this process include cosmetics and electronics. Whether your nameplate is aluminum, plastic, or norlens it can be a great candidate for “Blank on Tape”.

Estée Lauder Product Campaign Features Nothern Engraving Appliqué


In the February edition of ‘Guest Blogger’ by Estée Lauder, Emily of Cupcakes and Cashmere channels a historical era.  In this blog, one of the appliqués created at Northern Engraving is featured.

The blog titled “Sixties Saturation” encompasses the television series Mad Men, which brings back the styles from the nineteen-sixty era.  In this period of time, a focus on refined beauty was prevalent.  The recreation of this era’s style includes lined eyes, pink cheeks and ruby red lips and nails.
