Effective Metal Data Plate with Product Branding

Many times industrial data plates are located on the backside of equipment. Their key purpose is to provide information and specs related to proper use or maintenance of the piece of equipment. 

There are certain applications where the data plate is found on the main surface. When this is the case, many companies take advantage of the data plate to also include corporate branding. 

Here is a great example that does just this. The important cautionary information is listed out in easy-to-read format below the regulatory symbols and serial number. There is enough space in the top right corner to include corporate branding and dress it up.
