Custom boat names with a premium metallic look. Our plastic decals and car letters offer a chrome finish without corrosion, perfect for brand letterings and badges.


For yacht owners and marine manufacturers, the challenge has always been achieving that high-end, polished metal aesthetic without the inevitable heartbreak of saltwater corrosion. Traditional metal badges eventually pit, rust, or peel when exposed to harsh marine environments. Enter Nantong Xingyan Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., where we have redefined marine branding through our innovative SoftEmblem technology.

The Science of the "Soft" Metal Revolution

Our SoftEmblem isn't just a simple sticker; it is a sophisticated multi-layered composite. The process begins with a specialized pre-made metal-like film composed of PET, PVC or Resin, PMMA, and ABS. This high-performance material is then subjected to a precision hot stamping process. Unlike traditional rigid badges, this method allows the material to be hot-stamped into intricate 3D shapes while maintaining a flawless, mirror-like finish.

Once the shape is formed, we apply a high-strength backside adhesive, which is then precisely die-cut and trimmed to ensure a seamless fit. To add depth and branding, we utilize advanced screen printing to incorporate a rich spectrum of customizable colors, allowing your brand letterings to stand out with vibrant clarity.

Why Choose SoftEmblem for Marine Environments?

When it comes to plastic decals and plastic labels for the maritime industry, durability is non-negotiable. Our soft emblems offer several distinct advantages over traditional electroplated metal:

  • Eco-Friendly & Non-Toxic: Our production is entirely free from the heavy metal pollution associated with traditional chrome plating. It is a "green" solution for the modern age.

  • Superior Conformity: Traditional metal car emblem or motorcycle emblem styles are rigid. SoftEmblem is flexible, allowing it to adhere perfectly to curved hulls and contoured surfaces without edge warping.

  • Ten-Year Longevity: Engineered for the outdoors, our plastic name badges and emblems are UV-resistant and weather-certified to last up to ten years without losing their luster.

  • Safety First: One of our most appreciated features is that these emblems are "human-centered." They have no sharp edges and are soft to the touch, ensuring that they never cause scratches during installation or injury to passengers.

Versatile Applications: From Yachts to Automotive

While perfect for the sea, our technology is equally effective for car brand badges and car letterings. Whether you need individual car letters for a custom project or bulk plastic stickers for industrial branding, the metallic finish provided by SoftEmblem delivers the prestige of chrome with the resilience of high-grade polymers.

At Nantong Xingyan, we combine industrial aesthetics with environmental responsibility. If you are looking to elevate your brand with a metallic look that defies the elements, SoftEmblem is the ultimate solution.

A: Most consumers want the premium look of chrome or gold but without the weight and corrosion of real metal. At "Nantong Xingyan Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd", we solve this through our "SoftEmblem" technology. Unlike basic "plastic stickers", our process uses a pre-made metal-like film (PET + PVC/Resin + PMMA + ABS) that is "hot-stamped" into a 3D shape. This creates a genuine "metal texture" and high-end "brand letterings" that are indistinguishable from traditional metal, while remaining lightweight and flexible.

A: Standard rigid "plastic name badges" often fail on modern aerodynamic car bodies because they cannot bend, leading to "edge lifting." Our "car brand badges" are specifically designed to "perfectly conform to curved surfaces". Because the SoftEmblem is pliable, it hugs the contours of the vehicle’s hood or tailgate, ensuring the adhesive bond remains permanent even on complex 3D shapes.

A: Many traditional "car emblem" processes involve electroplating, which creates significant chemical pollution. Our SoftEmblem process is "free from electroplating pollution". We use a "hot stamping process" and eco-friendly films, providing a sustainable, "green" branding solution for the automotive and "motorcycle emblem" industries without sacrificing the luxurious metallic finish.

A: Rigid metal or stamped steel badges can have dangerously sharp edges. A key feature of our "SoftEmblem" is that it is "gentle on the hands" with "no sharp edges". This makes it the ideal choice for high-touch areas. Whether you are installing "car letters" or cleaning your vehicle, our "soft-touch" design ensures total safety for the user.

A: Traditional metals are prone to corrosion. We use * * SoftEmblem * * composite material (PET+Resin/pvc+PMMA+ABS) to provide a true metallic texture without electroplating pollution.
