Plaques For Memorial


 

Plaques are placed near the graves of the departed. It usually contains the name, date of birth, and date of death. Friends and family members may write a few words of their own to express their grief and pain. A Plaque can be made in any shape and add information in a variety of ways thanks to modern technology.

What are Plaques made of?

An informational Plaques Brisbane will enhance the appearance of the gravesite. The material should be durable and the colour should not fade. Such a material is granite or a combination of granite and marble.

However, other materials are also used:

• Iron;

• Metal;

• Plastic;

• Marble;

• Ceramics;

• Natural stone.

Different materials have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Iron and metal products are cheap and easy to manufacture. They lose their attractive appearance quickly, however, if they are not taken care of.

Though ceramics are strong, they are also susceptible to breaking and cracking.

The use of plastic is usually confined to temporary signs. Signs made from plastic have a lifespan of about 3 years. After three years, the colors will fade and the surface will become scratched and cracked.

How are Plaques fitted?

Special construction is used to fix the plaque to the ground.   Granite is used for the plaque's base. Both the plaque and base are buried in the ground. The metal parts are coated with a special compound to prevent corrosion.
