I hear what you are saying, and when we can we do move clients to the non-phenolic materials also. So many are uneducated, and that is our job - to let them know they have options. It seems that almost all, if not all, our government contracts require phenolic - the specs actually spell it out, so there isn't much I can do about changing them over if that is what the specs request. However, for the specs that don't specifically spell it out, I ask about useage and will make recommendations based on where the tag is going. We've been using a lot of lasered stainless tags also lately.
I'm not a thrilled provider of phenolic, but it does have it's place in our product line. I do charge according to POE (Pain of Engraving) when using phenolic - also, wear on machine & cutters.

Hi Buck,
Im just getting into engraving so I cant help you there . But my husband has been an electrical contractor for 35 years, I was reading him your post and this is what he had to say. Everyone in the business calls them Phenolic tags but that they dont know the differance between Phenolic & Rowmark. That if he were you he would ask the Contractor & show him the Rowmark. It just might make your job easier.
Hope this helps you out
