Product Personalisation by Sandblasting

Previously, personalisation meant finding a keyring with your name on it in a gift shop. If you were lucky, you found a magnet. And if you were really lucky, your name was actually on it. Today, thanks to the rise of e-commerce and modern technology, almost any product can be personalized.

Thus,sandblasting glass and other materials has become a popular way to add personality to gifts and promotional items.

What does product personalisation mean

A personalised product is a product customised to the customer's wishes - it could be a glass, a trophy, a bottle, a wooden box or even a metal plaque. Personalisation techniques include embroidery, engraving, screen printing, hand painting, embossing, sublimation, decals and computer graphics.

Sandblasting is one of the highest quality and most durable methods.

Why it pays to offer personalised products

1. Be up-to-date

Personalisation is a long-term trend that is growing. Customers are looking for original gifts and corporate items with their own motif - name, logo, date or graphic. Offer this service and stay visible in the booming market of personalised products and e-commerce.

2. Differentiate yourself from the competition

Everyone is offering mainstream goods today. By sandblasting and engraving glass, wood, metal, ceramic or stone, you can offer something special. Sandblasting equipment and UV photoresist films enable precise, detailed and professional workmanship on a wide range of materials.

3. Gain customer loyalty

Personalised products increase both trust and loyalty. Customers enjoy the opportunity to create their own designs and associate the final product with a positive experience. If they are satisfied, they are happy to come back and recommend you further.

4. Increase profitability

Sandblasted products have a higher perceived value than conventional goods. Sandblasted decor looks elegant and luxurious, which increases the customer's willingness to pay a higher price. This increases your ROI and profit on each order.
