Description
Crafted from Alder Wood
This plaque is made from blonde-tone alder wood with a natural finish, giving it a warm, light appearance that suits a range of office and award settings. The wood's inherent grain adds visual interest without overwhelming the engraved plate.
Personalized with Sublimation
The sublimated plate accepts full-color artwork, including photographs and gradients, with the dye fused into the surface for a smooth, durable finish. This makes it an effective way to recognize employees for their contributions.
Sized for Your Award
Available in three sizes—7" x 9", 8" x 10", and 9" x 12"—this plaque can accommodate different award programs and display spaces. It is California Proposition 65 compliant, meeting state safety standards.
Decoration & Imprint
2 methods
Your full-color artwork is sublimated onto the plate, which is mounted on the alder wood plaque. The dye is fused into the plate's surface, creating a smooth, seamless image with no raised texture.
SublimationFull-color imprint · 1 location included · no setup charge
Full Color Sublimation uses heat to convert solid dye into a gas that fuses directly into the material — not applied as a surface layer. The result is completely smooth, with no hand or texture, and reproduces photographic artwork with crisp detail and seamless gradients. Because the dye is embedded rather than sitting on the surface, the mark stays fade-resistant for the life of the item.
Laser1 location included · no setup charge
Laser engraving uses a focused beam to etch your design directly into the surface, leaving a permanent, recessed mark with clean, sharp edges that hold fine lines and small text. The result carries no separate ink: it reads in the substrate's own tone — a lighter shade on metal, a darker burn on wood — with a depth you can feel and a mark that resists fading, wear, and scratching.

From our decoration and product guides
- What does full-color sublimation look like?
- Sublimation uses heat to turn solid dye into a gas that fuses directly into the material, rather than sitting on the surface as a layer. The result is completely smooth, with no texture you can feel, and reproduces photographic artwork with crisp detail and seamless gradients across the whole decoration area. Because the dye is embedded, the image stays fade-resistant for the life of the item. More about Full Color Sublimation →
- Is sublimation a good choice for a single-color logo?
- Usually not. Sublimation renders color as a close process simulation, so a flat, solid brand color or an exact Pantone match is approximated rather than reproduced. It shines when the artwork is full-color, photographic or gradient-heavy and needs to wash edge to edge across the surface. For a solid spot-color logo choose screen print or pad print.

- What does laser engraving look like on a promotional product?
- Laser engraving uses a focused beam to etch the design directly into the surface, leaving a permanent, recessed mark with clean, sharp edges. There is no ink: the mark reads in the material's own tone, a lighter shade on metal and a darker burn on wood, with a depth you can feel. It resists fading, wear and scratching because nothing sits on top of the surface. More about Laser →
