Branding Wooden Packages

Branding your company logo on packaging, pallets, stairs or wooden furniture?

It's child's play with the help of a branding iron. Discover all the possibilities offered by branding irons on different types of wood and the great style offered by this particular personalisation technique.

Pallets... with logo

Wooden pallets are essential for goods transport companies.
From food companies to mail sorting in online businesses, anyone who distributes, stacks, transports or stores goods uses wooden pallets for these operations.
Frequent use of these pallets also means that they can be lost or even sent to some other warehouse by mistake, resulting in the loss of the pallet.
To prevent these small incidents from occurring too frequently resulting in loss of money and valuable time, an optimal solution would be to mark these carriers and brand them with a branding iron.

Branding Irons: not only on wood

Branding iron applications are not only restricted to use on wood to mark a logo.
They can also be used on other materials such as leather, plastics or cork. These special stamps can also be used in the food industry, where products need to be marked with special health marks. We recommend our electric branding irons for these special processes.

Branding Irons for Furniture Manufacturers

A furniture manufacturer is not just a craftsman, he is often also a designer.
For this reason, more and more furniture manufacturers are choosing to use branding irons to sign their creations just like artists.

Do you want to design your logo in a round, square or rectangular shape? No problem! Our assortment offers the right solution for every need.

Choose quality and simplify your work with a branding iron.
Simply connect it to the mains, wait for it to preheat and then stamp.
This method is also suitable for manufacturers of wooden staircases, so your creations will literally have the designer's name stamped on them.

Give your logo an authentic look? A branding iron is the right choice!

The company logo is the business card of every company.
Your logo can be found on all the correspondence you send out, letters, invitations, quotations and invoices.
Sometimes it is even necessary to print your logo on non-paper materials such as the wooden packaging of your products, in which case a branding iron is the right choice.

What is a Branding Iron?

A branding iron consists of a wooden handle, a steel body and a brass or bronze plate.
The easiest branding irons to use are the electric branding irons which are equipped with an electric branding plate and only need to be plugged in to the mains in order to start stamping immediately.

In order to increase the user-friendliness of electric branding irons, they are designed in a format that makes them easy to handle and manoeuvre. In this way, you can brand your chosen logo easily and quickly on a wide variety of surfaces: cardboard boxes, wooden pallets and platforms, wine crates, plastic gift boxes... you are spoilt for choice in choosing what to stamp on which surface.

Ensuring an attractive look for your company logo

Branding irons give brands a fantastic visual effect. Branding gives a completely different effect to stamping on paper. You get a solid, lasting look that conveys security and stability.
In addition, we offer you the possibility to design your own logo using the configurator integrated in our website.
Our graphic designers will then faithfully transfer your masterpiece directly onto the engraved plate.

Not only wood

Do you want to imprint your logo on materials other than paper or wood? This is also possible with a branding iron.

Safety and handling of branding irons

Branding irons offer a wide range of applications.
From marking wood, leather, rubber and cardboard to marking foodstuffs, the possibilities are endless.
In this section we will show that branding irons are also very safe to use.

Electric Branding Irons

Electric branding irons do not need propellants to preheat the plate, nor do they depend on portable gas containers to function.
The advantages are greater autonomy and the absence of open flames during processing.

Temperature Controllers and Drill Stands

The use of a temperature controller is recommended or becomes necessary when machining more delicate materials such as soft wood, plastics, cardboard, rubber and leather.
Drill stands provide the appropriate support for mounting the branding iron, making serial processing easy, fast and perfect.
The use of temperature controllers in combination with the drill stand ensures that every branding is highly professional.

Manual Branding Irons

Manual branding irons have an easy-to-grip wooden handle.
The smaller the size of the stamp, the easier it is to use.
Manual branding irons offer the advantage of interchangeable branding plates with which you can change logos or texts quickly and easily.

Gas Branding Irons

Gas branding irons do not have an electric cable and are therefore easy to transport and use even where there is no mains power available or in damp or wet environments.
Gas branding irons reach much higher temperatures than electric irons and therefore require more care during processing.

Ordering a Branding Irons

Stamping on wood, leather, plastic, rubber, cardboard or foodstuffs?

Royal Posthumus offers its customers centuries of experience and a wide range of electric, manual and gas branding irons.

Installing sliding sign panels in the office or outdoors

Sliding information signs are excellent for visual communication.
With these information panels it is possible to communicate the presence or absence of employees on the premises or the availability of a meeting room.
These panels make your company's interior design even more professional and allow you to receive visitors even more efficiently.
The use of these panels is practically infinite and they can also be used in non-work situations.

Sliding information panels in the office

Communicating visually with your customers is possible and also very easy with sliding information boards.
These panels communicate visually and intuitively to visitors, colleagues or customers whether an office or meeting room is available or in use and which employee is present or not.
To use them, simply slide the panel from one position to another, leaving the message to be communicated visible.

Choice of message

The sliding information panels are available with standard messages such as:

  • Present / Absent
  • Welcome / Do Not Disturb
  • Free / In Use
  • Free / Do Not Disturb
  • Full / Empty

These panels can be used for a variety of purposes such as ensuring that workers in a warehouse are not disturbed on arrival or during the preparation of a large shipment that requires the utmost care.
Simply leave the panel in the DO NOT DISTURB position to let everyone know that you are not available at that time.

To offer a solution for every application, we also offer the possibility to fully customise the lettering on the panel to make it unique to the customer's needs.

Not only for the office

These panels can also be used outside the office environment.
In the home, for example, they can be used by teenage children who don't want to be disturbed while they are in their room, or to communicate that they are completely immersed in their hobby and that the room is occupied.

How to choose the colour for your stamp?

The choice of stamp colour is very important and should be second only to the choice of stamp shape.
Currently, the choice of colour is very varied, and in this article we provide guidance on how to understand the message conveyed by the colour of the stamp.

What colour suits my company?

As already mentioned, before determining the colour of the stamp, you have to choose what to show on the stamp.
The company logo certainly deserves a prominent place, but the name, address, date or other details can also be very important.
These important choices very often depend on the application you want to give the stamp itself, and colour plays a key role in this.

You can match the colour of the brand to the message you want to convey, or to the colour of the company logo or even to the colours most commonly used by corporate partners.

Choice of colour

Colour can convey different messages:

  • Red indicates priority, urgency.
    You can use red to label something confidential, or use it to highlight important details, such as a change of address or a new phone number.
  • Blue indicates class and corporate solidity.
    This colour is often used by public companies or official bodies.
  • Green indicates approval and quality.
    Just like a traffic light, this colour indicates a green light.
  • Purple has been a standard colour for decades and conveys nostalgia.
    This colour was fashionable for business correspondence and being less hard than black is less prominent and less aggressive.

How and when to replace a self-inking pad

Ink stamps have worked for many years thanks to the combination of stamp and ink pad.
More recently, however, self-inking stamps have been introduced with an integrated system that is faster and cleaner.
Even self-inking stamps, no matter how advanced they are, need to be refilled with ink in order to continue to function and perform well.
If the prints are faded, it may be time to replace the self-inking pad.

Stain-free replacement

In the past, replacing the ink pad of a manual stamp could be a delicate operation that often resulted in annoying ink stains on clothes and surfaces.
Thanks to the new technology of self-inking stamps, this operation has become much easier, quicker and cleaner.
Today, most office stamps, such as the TRODAT series, have a built-in self-inking pad that is easy to remove and replace.

Replacement

Thanks to the special gripping zones, the self-inking bearings of the TRODAT stamps are easy to handle without getting your hands dirty:

  • Access the self-inking bearing by applying light pressure to the stamp.
  • Reach into the self-inking pad and hold it by the gripping areas.
  • Remove the worn-out pad.
  • Insert the new self-inking pad.

We always recommend using the pad and ink that is compatible with your stamp to avoid damage to the stamp.
