Office Name Plates & Name Tags: The Complete Hub
Name plates and tags are small, but they set the tone for a professional workplace. Here's how to pick the right style and order a consistent set for your whole team.
Plates vs. tags
Desk and door name plates identify a space — a brass or black-and-gold plate in a holder on a desk or wall. Name tags are worn — engraved plastic badges with a magnetic or pin backing. Most offices need both: plates for offices and cubicles, tags for customer-facing staff.
Choosing a name tag
Pick a plastic color that matches your brand (white, black, navy, brushed silver or gold, and more), then a contrasting engraving color. Magnetic backing is the office favorite — it holds well and won't put pin holes in clothing.
Ordering for a whole team
Design one tag, then paste your roster — name and title per line — and we personalize the whole set from a single layout. Logos are a one-time setup, so reorders and new hires match the originals exactly.

Magnetic or pin backing for name tags?
