Name Board
A nameplate identifies and displays a person or product’s name.
Nameplates are usually shaped as rectangles but are also seen in other shapes, sometimes taking on the shape of someone’s written name.
Office Name Board
Office nameplates generally are made out of plastic, wood, metals (stainless steel, brass, aluminium, zinc, copper) and usually contain one or two lines of text. The standard format for an office nameplate is to display a person’s name on the first line and a person’s job title on the second line. It is common for organizations to request nameplates that exclude the job title.
Personal Name Board
Nameplates are also popular for personal reasons. Parents often like to adorn the doors of their children’s rooms with nameplates. These nameplates are conventionally crafted out of wood, not plastic or metal. Because the nameplates are meant for children, these personal nameplates tend to come in fun shapes.
These nameplates also tend to be more colorful than office nameplates.
