About Arch Engraving

Since 1968, Arch Engraving has been helping businesses, organizations, schools, and individuals recognize achievements, promote their brands, and create lasting impressions through high-quality personalized products.

Founded in Kirkwood, Missouri by Fred Prasuhn, Arch Engraving has grown from a local engraving shop into one of the Midwest's leading providers of awards, recognition products, signage, promotional items, name badges, industrial marking, and custom personalization. The Collier family acquired the company in 2003 and continues to lead the business today. Our headquarters and production facility are located in Fenton, Missouri, while our Kirkwood showroom continues to serve customers just as it has since the beginning.

As a veteran-owned and operated business, we are committed to quality craftsmanship, exceptional customer service, and dependable turnaround times. In 2019, the U.S. Small Business Administration recognized Arch Engraving as the Eastern Missouri Veteran-Owned Small Business of the Year. We were also honored as the Awards & Personalization Association's National Large Retailer of the Year for 2021-2022.

Today, we proudly serve customers throughout the St. Louis region and across the United States.
