Metal prints are made by a process called dye sublimation

Unlike the traditional method of printing directly on the material surface, which may damage easily, dye sublimation infuses the image directly into the hard coating to provide lasting durability and protection
The next step requires your image to be printed on transfer paper with specialized sublimation inks made for the metal print process
This transfer sheet is then placed on to a blank metal photo panel which is then placed in a heat press
The heat and pressure causes the sublimation inks to transform into a gas
The gas is then absorbed through the pores of the polymer coating of the metal and into the base coating
This entire process creates the most high quality, vibrant images that will easily outlast other printing processes
