    I’ve no idea, although looking at the sample I have on my desk, it doesn’t appear to be?

    I think its sublimation. but not engraved, I think those are hammer punched.
    I had something like that on the rear of the UKSG Training truck and updated it myself with a much better one.

    The plates shown from award crafters are anodised to a military spec! I’ve used award crafters a few times and I can highly recommend them! Unlike some other plates you can’t scratch the finish off!

    It will be anodised aluminium, laser engraved (to remove the black powder coating) at a guess.

    Its not the type of work I do, but there are a few out there who specialise in this type of work.
