If it fits in the laser, we will probably engrave it

Industrial tags. Custom cups. Lake Charles, Louisiana.

CarveLab cuts phenolic tags and nameplates for plants along the Gulf Coast. We also put names and logos on cups, because the laser gets bored.

Go ahead, poke a tag.

What we make

The serious work pays the bills. The fun work keeps the laser happy.

For the plantIndustrial tags and nameplates

Equipment nameplates, valve and instrument tags, panel legends, lockout and warning tags, aluminum data plates, signs, and awards. Tell us the tag numbers and wording, or send your site tag standard.

    Pick up in Lake Charles, or we ship to your shop or site.

Files, proofs, and pickup

Tell us what you need engraved

Tags and cups you build on this site go onto one order list, so you can send a single request. The request opens an email to CarveLab with your details and list filled in. Attach spreadsheets, name lists, and artwork before you send it.
