Stripe, full colour or custom branded: choosing a plate finish

The three finishes compared, with codes. Part of our custom plates range.

Which custom plate finish should you choose?

Choose full IWF colour (WLK21–24) for instant weight recognition, black with a colour stripe (CBCP110–125) for a premium look that still shows the weight, and add your crest, name or logo to either.
