Overlays can be used as a standalone option for branding, asset management, compliance, safety, or informational purposes. They are especially useful when you want to provide a tactile and intuitive user-experience. Overlays can also serve as the point of user interface for membrane switches and touchscreens. Read more about membrane switch overlays [here](https://www.cubbison.com/overlays-human-machine-interface). ![Overlays 2](https://www.cubbison.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Overlays%202.jpg?width=535&height=368&name=Overlays%202.jpg) The Cubbison Company has been designing and manufacturing commercial and industrial nameplates, labels, and overlays for more than seven decades.
