Challenges We Solve
Household Cleaners Attacking the Panel
Appliance fronts get sprayed with degreasers, bleach wipes, and stainless cleaners every week. Material, ink, hard coat, and adhesive are matched to the cleaners the product will actually meet.
Steam, Moisture and Spills
Laundry and dishwashing appliances live in steam, and kitchen panels get splashed. Perimeter gaskets are die-cut alongside the overlay and laminated in, so the sealed assembly is the part we ship.
Touch That Has to Work With Wet Hands
A capacitive panel that misses with damp or greasy fingers reads as a defective appliance. Sensitivity is tuned to the actual stack-up and cover material, not a generic default.
Color Match Across a Product Family
A range, hood, and dishwasher sold as a suite have to read as one finish side by side in a showroom. BTI holds a Delta E of 2 or less, verified with a spectrophotometer.
Cost at Appliance Volume
White goods programs are decided on landed cost per unit. Printing replaces tooling and machining steps, and value-added assembly moves lamination and LED population off your line
Service Parts for Models No Longer Built
Appliances stay in kitchens long after the line has stopped. BTI works with OEMs and aftermarket manufacturers and can recreate a panel from a physical sample.

Why Appliance Manufacturers Choose BTI
UL Authorized Label Supplier
Rating plates and compliance marking are built as UL 969 label systems, evaluated for permanence, durability, adhesion, and legibility in the actual application, not just for approved material.
Delta E ≤ 2 Across the Product Family
Color is held to a Delta E of 2 or less, verified with a spectrophotometer and computer-based ink formulation, so every appliance in a suite reads as the same finish.
Capacitive Touch Tuned to Your Stack-Up
Sensitivity is set against the actual cover material and layer stack rather than a generic default, with lighting feedback replacing the tactile confirmation a button used to give.
OEM and Aftermarket, Both Served
BTI supplies white goods OEMs and the aftermarket manufacturers who support them, so a panel can stay available long after the original production line has closed.
What Our Clients Say
Branding & Identification
Printed Alternatives to Machined Metal Nameplates
Metal nameplates add tooling costs, extend lead times, and increase weight. BTI redesigned them as printed and embossed labels using metallic inks, maintaining the original appearance and durability while removing the machining step entirely.
Control Panel Manufacturer
Backlit Control Panel That Saved 20+ Hours of Engineering
A manufacturer wanted a control panel with backlighting that stayed even across the whole face. BTI took it from design through production, delivering a production-ready membrane switch that saved the customer over 20 hours of engineering time.
Production Efficiency
Value-Added Assembly That Removed a Step From the Line
Rather than shipping loose parts for the customer to assemble, BTI laminated the adhesives, spacers, and overlaminate films, surface-mounted the LEDs, fitted the connectors, and delivered a finished sub-assembly ready to drop into the enclosure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does BTI make custom appliance labels?
Yes. Electrical rating labels, model and serial marking, instruction and warning placards, and compliance labels, built as UL 969 systems in polyester or polycarbonate.
Are BTI's appliance labels UL and CSA approved?
Yes. BTI is a UL Authorized Label Supplier and produces both. UL is recognized in the US, CSA in Canada and the US, with broader international recognition.
Does BTI make appliance membrane switches and keypads?
Yes. Sealed keypads for appliance control panels, with tactile metal domes where the user needs positive feedback, backlighting behind the legend, and electrical testing before shipment.
Can BTI make capacitive touch panels for appliances?
Yes. Touch surfaces with no crevices for dirt to collect in, water-resistant constructions, curved surfaces, and lighting feedback on contact, tuned to your cover material.
Will an appliance overlay survive household cleaners?
That depends on the cleaners, which is why we specify against them. Tell us the sprays, wipes, and degreasers the panel will meet, and we match material, ink, and adhesive.
Can BTI match color across a whole appliance suite?
Yes. Color is held to a Delta E of 2 or less, verified with a spectrophotometer and computer-based ink formulation, so a range, hood, and dishwasher read as one finish.
Does BTI supply aftermarket appliance manufacturers?
Yes. BTI works with white goods OEMs and with the aftermarket manufacturers who support them, so a panel or label set can stay available after the original line closes.
Can BTI recreate a panel for a model no longer in production?
Often, yes. Send a physical sample, even a worn one, and we work from the part when documentation is gone, then return it to documented, repeatable production.
