Cast Bronze - Memorial Plaques
Cast bronze is one of the most recognisable and traditional materials for plaques. Cast bronze plaques mark monuments, memorials, and historic buildings all over the world—expressing quality and permanence. As the name suggests, cast bronze plaques are produced by casting molten bronze in a foundry. Letters and graphics are generally raised against a dark, textured background. They are very attractive, extremely robust, durable, and versatile.
Cast bronze is thicker and heavier than the engraved products described elsewhere. They have a thicker edge profile and are generally fixed by bosses (raised, threaded sections) which are cast on the back—see the photos below.
Casting methods place limits on what can be reproduced for text, graphics, and images. However, modern techniques offer more flexibility with cast bronze plaques than previously. We urge you to talk to us about your ideas very early in the development process.
Cast bronze plaques are suited to any plaque situation, indoors and outdoors, including the harshest conditions.
