Engraved Pavers Introduction | Benefits | Colors | Installation
Methods of Engraving Pavers
There are three main methods of engraving pavers:
- Sandblasted Engraving
- Laser Engraving
- Bronze Plated Engraving
Sandblasted Engraving
This method involves taking the desired text or logo, and making a stencil out of it. That stencil is then sandblasted onto the pavers to create the engraved effect. In order to preserve the engraving onto the pavers, it is sealed with a product like lithochrome, which prevents the damaging effects of weather and high traffic areas.
Laser Engraving
Another popular method of engraving pavers is with the use of lasers. Images are lasered onto the pavers, creating an engraved message or icon on the pavers. The technical term for this method is vitralase.
Bronze Plaque Engraving
Other companies in the engraving industry prefer to use bronze plaques instead of stencils to engrave pavers. The bronze plaque is placed over the pavers and then painted with a protective seal to fight the effects of weather and wear.
