Howard Bros has decades of experience making embossing dies and stamping tools. We supply the jewellery, badge, leather and packaging industries, and have built strong relationships with some of the UK’s most established packaging companies.
Whether your design is a simple 2D outline, a detailed 3D relief or a multi-level design, our team has the experience to produce a tool that gives a crisp, consistent result.
Braille embossing for pharmaceutical packaging
Braille is a legal requirement on medicine packaging in the UK and EU, and demand for accurate Braille embossing tools keeps growing. We make Braille dies to suit your carton board and packaging line.
Beyond packaging
- Enamel badge dies: custom dies that strike crisp, well-defined recesses ready for enamel filling
- Leather embossing stamps: stamps that give deep, clean impressions in leather, used for bicycle saddles, handbags and leather goods
- Gunmaking: embossing and marking tools for British gun manufacturers
Engineered for your material
When we design an embossing tool, we digitally calculate the offsets for your material thickness. This prevents pinching and tearing and gives a clean, even emboss every time. We can engrave onto your own material or supply complete machined blocks from our in-house tool room.
