How Are Stamps Used in Today’s Modern World

17.10.2024
In today's fast-paced digital landscape, you might wonder about the relevance of stamps. Despite advancements in technology, stamps continue to offer organisation, efficiency, and a personal touch—just as they did a century ago.

From simple text stamps for office documents to logo stamps for branding or packaging, stamps make a positive impact on your business. This article will explore the key ways stamps, in particular, Trodat stamps can enhance your work, whether in the office, at home, or on the move.

Office Organisation and Document Authentication

For any business, large or small, crucial documents like financial records, business plans, and contracts need to be clearly and correctly marked. Implementing an efficient process with properly marked documents facilitates easier sharing and understanding, allowing for a more cooperative and informed workplace. A phrase which perfectly illustrates this point is ‘work smarter not harder’. Using custom or pre-designed phrase stamps such as a Trodat 4822 or Professional 5117 to mark documents helps to ensure clarity and quick access to vital information streamlining workflows and enhancing productivity.

Enhancing Brand Identity with Professional Touches

Distinct branding sets you apart from competitors. It's crucial for businesses to make each customer interaction a positive one, reinforcing trust and brand loyalty. Did you know 7 out of 10 customers will buy more from brands they trust and they will abandon companies they don’t have faith in.  Stamping your logo or message on your products, packaging, or supporting documents like invoices increases brand visibility and helps cement consumer trust.

With a range of stamp sizes and designs available, you can find the perfect tool to help your employees feel proud to represent your brand and contribute to a thriving business environment. Trodat recommends our 5212 Professional stamp to stamp your packaging. Its large surface area of 115mm x 68mm fits your logo nicely and leaves a perfect imprint.

Cost-effective Personalisation Through Crafting

The pandemic saw a surge in people taking up new hobbies, some turning these into new careers. Using stamps, crafters can infuse personalisation into their projects, making every detail count. Whether you're a seasoned crafter or a newcomer, selecting the right tools like our traditional rubber stamps or self-inking models can significantly enhance your products. Personalised stamps allow for versatile application across various materials, ensuring both cost efficiency and uniqueness without the need for large minimum orders.

Special Inks for Diverse Applications

Our range of special inks are designed for use on more than just paper. Trodat 7021 ink, available in multiple colours, is perfect for non-porous surfaces such as plastics, glossy paper, textiles, and metals. Ideal for crafting and industrial applications, these inks provide quick-drying properties and durability for a variety of uses, including in the food industry where clear, compliant marking is crucial.

Maintaining Security and Confidentiality

In 2021 there were 226,000 reported cases of identity fraud. If your identity is stolen, it can be used to commit credit card fraud, apply for bank accounts/loans and purchase goods. The Trodat ID Protector helps safeguard sensitive details on documents such as invoices and financial statements and was created to help prevent people becoming a victim of this crime. This roller stamp covers personal data effectively, with ink that resists washing off, erasure, or fading. It’s simple design allows for easy integration into your daily routine, providing security and efficiency in handling personal and business correspondence.
