What is Sublimation?

The sublimation process:

  • A photographic image is printed onto a film using sublimation inks
  • The film is wrapped around an item coated in a specially formulated powder coating
  • A vacuum is applied to hold the film in close contact with the powder coating
  • In a high temperature oven, the image is lifted from the film and transferred INTO the depth of the powder coating layer (a process called sublimation).
  • The film is then removed.

The overall finish is governed by the combination of powder coat base colour, and the pattern and colours of the sublimated image. These can be mixed and matched to produce a wide range of patterns and colours to meet most requirements. We use photographic images of real timbers and concretes etc, which make our finishes as natural-looking and realistic as possible, and we have hundreds of finishes available.

Warranty Available. Metwood is a two stage process of powder coating followed by sublimation.  Through our suppliers, we are able to offer a 25 year warranty on the underlying powder coating from Interpon, and a 10 year warranty on the pattern from Menphis.  Both warranties are subject to the specific terms and conditions of the respective suppliers.

*MetWood sublimates high-definition photographs of actual pieces of timber into a powder coating layer. This means that MetWood sublimated finishes exhibit all the natural variations of colour, grain and blemishes that are seen in real wood. It is possible there will be some shifting in colour over time, however, regardless of the extent of colour change, it won’t change in an ‘unnatural way’ so as to significantly adversely affect the appearance of the surface to which the product has been applied.

# Being a coating, Metwood doesn't alter the fire rating performance of a product, so when used on Aluminium, it can overcome many of the fire related issues associated with traditional wooden products, while providing the look of natural wood.
