TransportTags is a new and up-and-coming business which makes high quality key tags and memorabilia from historic transportation pieces that have been saved from being scrapped and lost forever.
A small family business with a passion for aviation and transportation inspired them to create TransportTags to share with you.
Their offerings include products made from military aircraft, civilian aircraft, and other assorted new vehicle items, with much to follow in the very near future.
Their ultimate goal is to raise money through the sale of TransportTags in order to restore and display some of the aircraft that they have been collecting for many years. They carefully create the tags from spare and original authentic parts.
Made from the skin of authentic aircraft, cars, helicopters, and a plethora of other vehicles. The parts and vehicles used to create these tags show the paint scheme, design, and wear and tear of that aircraft or vehicle’s life, battle scars and all. Therefore, no two tags are alike.
Some tags have actual battle damage. Bullet holes, blast damage, scrapes and scars. Damage from anti-aircraft fire. Some tags have a hole from where an assembly bolt or rivet was once placed.
The paint and colour will vary from tag to tag as well because of the design of the aircraft or vehicle and its paint pattern, the area on the vehicle that the tag is made from, and weathering, sun fade, use, etc.
Some tags will also have partial lettering or numbers depending on what parts of the aircraft or vehicles they were made from - like tail wing identification, maker/brand info or squadron info.
TransportTags have different thicknesses and weight. It all depends on where it was taken from the original aircraft or vehicle. No two are alike.
This makes the tags even more interesting.
Each tag is truly a work of art in its own right - and a wonderfully unique way to memorialize the aircraft or vehicle from which it originated.
TransportTags can be beautifully purposed as luggage tags, key tags, dog tags, or displayed as a meaningful and historic collectible.
The collection will expand over time with new and different tags, so be sure to check back here often!
