Metal prints work differently than every other format in the catalog — the image is infused directly into a 1mm aluminum sheet using a dye-sublimation process, rather than printed onto paper or canvas and mounted afterward. That process is what gives metal prints their particular look: a glossy finish that pushes color and contrast further than a matte paper print can, with the image essentially part of the metal itself rather than sitting on top of it.

Because the ink is infused into the metal rather than printed on a surface layer, the finish resists fading, scratches, and water damage — no glass, no matting, and nothing to peel or yellow over time. Each print ships with a pre-installed hanger on the back, so mounting is straightforward without extra hardware to source. Sizes run from a mini 5" x 5" up to a panoramic 40" x 20", covering everything from a small accent piece to a full wall statement, and the aluminum construction keeps even the larger sizes light enough to hang and move easily.

High-contrast photos, city or night shots, and anything with strong color tend to show off the format best — the glossy finish works in the print's favor rather than washing it out. As with any made-to-order print, a sharper source photo holds up better once it's enlarged and printed at full detail.
