Indugràfic
Marcarte, formerly known as Indugràfic, is a renowned Valencian company synonymous with mastery in high-quality industrial marking and printing solutions. Our mission is to provide companies with personalized tools that reflect their identity, authenticity, and value. Through constant innovation and artisanal mastery, we help our clients stand out, preserve their legacy, and create products that endure over time.
Marcarte aims to become the leading brand in the marking and printing sector, recognized for its excellence, craftsmanship, and ability to customize each project. This rebranding elevates Marcarte’s identity, reflecting luxury and exclusivity; positioning the brand as a premium provider. Marcarte embodies sophistication, craftsmanship and elegance, making it the go-to company for those seeking the finest in industrial marking.
The typography used in the “Marcarte” wordmark pays homage to Indugràfic’s roots, preserving the unique character of the original signage while breathing new life into the visual identity. The name “Marcarte” is born from the union of two key concepts: “marcar” (to mark), a symbol of precision, personalization and the artisanal tradition of marking; and “arte” (art), a reflection of the beauty, exclusivity and passion that define every project.
Marcarte’s visual identity is a responsive system, seamlessly adapting to any platform or context. This adaptability ensures the brand remains visually consistent and impactful. By prioritizing flexibility and clarity, Marcarte positions itself as a modern, sophisticated provider of premium industrial marking solutions.
Marcarte’s color palette strikes a perfect balance between luxury and modernity, drawing inspiration from royal mauve tones. Malbec, a deep black with subtle purple undertones, exudes elegance and sophistication; while burgundy, a royal purple, firmly positions the brand within the luxury sector. Our vibrant bougainvillea accent tone adds a modern touch; complemented by a muted white for luminosity and clarity. The palette is grounded by a soft gray, an industrial tone that evokes the craftsmanship of engraving and printing.

The rebranding of Indugràfic into Marcarte marks the creation of a new brand identity – one that not only communicates expertise and professionalism but also embodies a deep sense of creativity and attention to detail. The brand speaks in a sophisticated yet approachable tone, instilling confidence in the company’s skill and know-how.
