Make Your Mark with Personalized Castings from Bass & Hays
Your infrastructure is a lasting investment in your community, and Bass & Hays is here to help you make it uniquely yours. We offer custom branding solutions for American-made manhole covers, watertight and storm inlet covers, meter boxes, valve boxes, cleanout covers, or other castings or products. With options to add municipal logos, utility designations, or unique identification marks, our personalized products not only enhance community pride but also simplify asset tracking and establish clear ownership. If it needs a distinctive mark, we can make it happen. Please note that custom branding may incur additional pattern or other related setup and production fees.
Custom branding and special lettering on HDPE plastic as well as cast iron meter box and manhole covers, demonstrate the possibilities we can create to meet your unique needs for municipal utility infrastructure access products.
What is Custom Branding?
Custom branding involves casting unique lettering, names, and logos directly into the surface of iron and steel products. Instead of a generic casting, your infrastructure assets can carry your city’s seal, utility department name, or a specific identifier. This process creates a durable, highly visible, and permanent brand that becomes an integral part of the product itself, lasting for the entire service life of the casting.
Your Vision, Molded into HDPE Plastic or Cast in Iron: Our Customization Options
We offer a variety of personalization options tailored to your unique branding needs. Our team collaborates with you to transform your design into a durable, high-quality mark on your infrastructure components. Whether it’s embedding your brand into plastic HDPE meter box covers or casting it into iron manhole covers, meter box covers, inlet covers, valve box covers, or cleanout covers– We Got You Covered®
- Custom Logos: Feature your city, county, or utility district’s official logo or seal. This is a powerful way to reinforce community identity and pride on public infrastructure.
- Special Lettering & Custom Names: Clearly identify ownership by casting the name of your municipality or utility (e.g., “City of Austin Water,” “Springfield Sanitary Sewer”).
- Uniquely Branded Identification: Designate the specific purpose of an asset with clear, permanent lettering such as “Storm Drain,” “Reclaimed Water,” or “Fiber Optic,” reducing confusion and improving maintenance efficiency.
The Benefits of Personalized Identification Products
Branding your castings offers significant advantages beyond simple aesthetics. It’s a smart, strategic choice for effective asset management and security.
- Enhanced Community Identity: Custom logos and names transform standard infrastructure into a visible symbol of civic pride and investment.
- Improved Asset Management: Clearly marked assets for different utilities (water, sewer, storm) prevent cross-contamination and streamline inspections, maintenance, and repairs.
- Theft Deterrence: Castings that are clearly marked with a municipality or utility’s name are significantly less attractive to thieves, reducing the costs and service disruptions associated with replacement.
- Clear Ownership & Liability: Permanent identification leaves no doubt as to which entity owns and is responsible for a particular piece of infrastructure.
