What is the Acacia Wood/Slate Serving Board with Tools?
Acacia Wood/Slate Serving Board with Tools (SLT081): a cutting board where Solid wood with a natural grain and a finished surface does most of the work. It measures 6" x 17 1/2". This is the slate colorway.
Wood carries a warmth that metal and acrylic do not, and that is why it keeps showing up on service awards and retirement pieces where the message is personal rather than corporate.
A board is used in front of guests, which is how a gift becomes a referral conversation. On this substrate specifically: laser engraving burns directly into the grain for a permanent mark. Expect slight tonal variation between pieces.
This is relationship spend. Key accounts, long service, the people who genuinely moved a number: the list should be short and every piece should carry a name. Concretely: $61.00 each at 1-11, $37.82 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 5 in x 5 in.
Laser Engraving
A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.
Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.
Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.
UV Printing
UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
Artwork requirements
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually will not.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- Outline your fonts before sending. It removes the most common cause of a proof coming back wrong.
Production schedule
| Artwork proof | 1 business day from receipt of usable art |
|---|---|
| Standard production | 3 to 5 business days after proof approval |
| Rush production | quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay |
| Ground transit | 1 to 5 business days depending on destination |
Common uses
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
Hospitality, Restaurants & Breweries
In hospitality the promotional item and the retail item are the same object. Branded glassware and drinkware serve guests, then sell to guests at the end of the visit. That dual use changes the maths entirely. The decoration cost is recovered at the till rather than written off to marketing. This is a shortlist item. Individual personalisation is expected at this level.
Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events
Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. The deadline is absolute in a way it is not in any other segment. A wedding does not move, which means production scheduling, not selection, is where these orders fail. Lock artwork six weeks out and the rest is straightforward. $61.00 before breaks buys something that stays on a desk for years.
Real Estate & Closing Gifts
A closing gift is a referral instrument, not a thank-you note. Agents re-order what generates conversations, not what photographs well. Track which pieces prompt a referral call and the item list narrows quickly to two or three things worth stocking properly. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. Give this to the handful of people who genuinely moved the number.
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. A gift that lands on a client desk and stays there keeps working long after the meeting that prompted it. That argues for fewer, better pieces rather than a large volume of disposables, and for decoration that will still look intentional in two years. A board is used in front of guests, which is how a gift becomes a referral conversation. At this price the recipient list should fit on one page.

What do buyers ask about SLT081?
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. SLT081 sells from a single unit at $61.00, the first rung of its published ladder, so a sample is simply a normal order. A decorated single piece goes through the same proof as a full run.
What artwork do you need from me?
Send vector if it exists, raster at 300 dpi if it does not, and whatever you have if neither. The personalization area on SLT081 is 5 in x 5 in, and we redraw or re-proportion anything that will not survive it. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.
How long does production take?
Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. The clock starts when you approve the proof, not when you place the order. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
What happens if something arrives damaged?
Tell us within 10 days of delivery and we replace it. Note any damage on the freight bill before you sign for it, because that is what the carrier claim turns on. Resolving it with the carrier is our job, not yours. The replacement runs from the artwork you already approved, so it matches the rest of the order.
How should this be cared for?
Dust with a dry cloth. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight. SLT081 measures 6" x 17 1/2" and is made of wood. Wood carries a warmth that metal and acrylic do not, and that is why it keeps showing up on service awards and retirement pieces where the message is personal rather than corporate.
Is there a setup charge?
No. Setup is free on every order at every quantity. Art preparation, machine setup and your digital proof are built into the price, with nothing added for them later. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on SLT081 runs from $61.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $37.82 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
What is the minimum order for SLT081?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on SLT081. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The price per piece only goes down as the quantity rises. The published ladder on SLT081 runs from $61.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $37.82 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
