Laser work in Upington
Upington is the centre of the Orange River valley, where table grapes, raisins, dates and wine drive the economy. Packhouses, co-operatives and cellars order stainless equipment tags, pallet markers, branded gifts for buyers and engraved wine and raisin packaging. Farms ask for vineyard block signs, ear tags for sheep and cattle, and branding irons. Solar plants and mines further afield need equipment tags and safety signage. Guest farms and Kalahari lodges want rustic wooden signs, and weddings on river estates bring decor orders. Distances are long, so most engraving, cutting and machine stock is couriered from Kimberley, Cape Town or Gauteng.
Typical glass engraving requests in the area come from:
- Farms and agri businesses: farm stalls and wine farms ordering engraved jars, bottles and tasting glasses
- Shops, restaurants and venues: wine estates, pubs and guesthouses ordering engraved glasses and branded bottles
- Factories, engineering and mines: glass panels and sight glasses marked with patterns or reference marks
- Weddings and events: engraved wine glasses and champagne flutes as wedding favours and bridal party gifts
