Processes

Choosing the right material is essential to ensure your labels, nameplates, and graphic components perform reliably in their intended environment.

At GSM Graphic Arts, we work with both plastic and metal substrates, selecting materials based on factors such as temperature, moisture, chemicals, UV exposure, and the level of wear the product will experience. With over 50 years of experience across sectors, including electronics, medical, aerospace, logistics, construction, and marine, our team can recommend the most suitable solution for durability, performance, and visual finish.

All products are manufactured in-house to ISO 9001:2015 standards using our comprehensive range of processes, from silkscreen printing and anodising aluminium to chemically etched stainless steel and digitally under-surface printed polycarbonate. Whether you need lightweight plastic overlays, rugged metal nameplates, or premium 3D branding badges, we’ll guide you through the best material and finish for your application and can provide advice, samples, and support at every stage.
