About Our Products

Are your products made in the USA?

All products are personalized at one of our US fulfillment centers. Some materials may originate from locations outside the US.

What is the difference between engraved and full color products?

Engraved products are made by etching directly into the material, creating an engraved monochrome image. Full color products are UV printed directly onto the material surface, creating a smooth, vibrantly colored image.

What is the difference between self-inking and pre-inked stamps?

Pre-inked stamps are filled with oil-based ink and leave 50,000+ crisp, clear impressions before needing additional ink. Self-inking stamps include a built-in, water-soluble ink pad that leaves 7,000+ clear impressions before needing additional ink. Pre-inked and self-inking stamps are not recommended for glossy and other non-porous surfaces.

What ink colors are available? 

Ink color options depend upon the stamp being ordered and individual state requirements, if applicable. Please see individual products for specific ink color selections.

What stamp is best for glossy and other non-porous surfaces?

A traditional wood handle hand stamp and specially formulated super marking ink are recommended for glossy and other non-porous surfaces.

What is the difference between a stamp and an embosser?

A stamp leaves a flat, inked imprint on a variety of papers and other non-porous surfaces. An embosser creates a raised imprint on lightweight paper (20 lb paper recommended) that can be inked for photocopying and scanning with a seal impression inker.

What fonts do you offer and what do they look like?

Please refer to individual products for available font styles.
