Informative plaques for safety – or just plain fun

Bernard Engraving Informative Plaques

July 25, 2023

Informational signage is a common sight on boats, whether used to reveal the storage locations of safety gear, label switches on service panels, or identify galleys, heads and private areas. For a durable and professional look, custom identification plaques from Bernard Engraving assure clear communication with bright, easy to read messaging.

Constructed from non-corrosive molded plastic, Bernard Engraving plaques use a pressure-sensitive adhesive backing that sticks securely to almost any clean surface for quick and easy mounting. The durable commercial grade adhesive and robust plaque exterior finish assure a long service life, even when deployed in harsh maritime environments.

A range of plaques includes standardized regulatory messaging, such as oil discharge, drug policy and injury reporting plaques, which fully conform to all relevant Coast Guard requirements. Informative plaques that neatly convey important operational and safety information are also available in both standard and customized configurations.

Just for fun and to ensure guests onboard are paying attention, a variety of official-looking informational plaques with amusing messages are also available, including a choice of standardized or fully custom phrasing. Bernard Engraving plaques come in a variety of background and text colors and sizes. MSRP varies, with Fun Plaques starting at $5.20 USD each. www.bernardengraving.com.
