    IPI/Rowmark Durability

    I have a client that wants a metal plate on his product, but this doesn't look like a doable possibility. I did consider AlumaMark, but haven't been impressed with samples I've received.

    So... I've suggested .02 thick IPI or Rowmark. Now... How durable are these products to constant handling?

    What's the application? They are very durable, but define "handling". What would you make that people would handle?

    Name tags are made out of the same material, just thicker 2nd layer, and they deal with more handling than most anything I can think of.

    I doubt it. That's a thin cap sheet for something that will be messed with and placed in so many places that will scratch it.
