Brushed Aluminum Prints

Brushed Aluminum Dibond® brings a unique metallic texture to your Fine Art or Photographs.

Brushed Aluminum Dibond

Brushed Aluminum Dibond is a composite material. It is 1/8 in. (3 mm) thick and has 3 layers. Two brushed aluminum layers sandwich a black polyethylene core. This combination of materials gives you the durability of metal at a fraction of the weight.

Direct Print on Brushed Aluminum

At SPS Art & Photo we print your digital file directly onto the Acrylic substrate. The process involves direct print with vibrant UV inks that transfer the color and detail directly onto the Acrylic surface without distortions or color variations. Contrary to some websites that dispute the quality of direct to print Acrylic, todays current print technology as well as advancements in UV print equipment and the composition of high tech plastics has advanced the quality of direct to print Acrylic to where it is as superior in quality to face mounted printing.

An added benefit of direct print to Acrylic is that the process is less labor intensive which translates to a better value for the client.
