About Us

Print 2 Metal specialises in helping photographers and artists at all levels, to showcase their work in a lasting and exciting new way.

Since 2010, the Print 2 Metal team has been producing the highest quality fine art printing on metal available anywhere, with a genuine commitment to personalised customer care.

The technique of printing images onto sleek thin sheets of aluminium still leaves the first time viewer saying “wow”. Plus, they don’t require glass or a heavy frame, they’re vibrant and lightweight and can be easily cleaned.

Print 2 Metal was the FIRST in Australia to make available true photographic quality printing of your photos, artwork and graphics onto metal.

Because there’s no need to protect your image with glass, metal prints offer a more contemporary way to display images for your home, office, interior design project or exhibition.

All prints and frames are lovingly hand-crafted in our Melbourne studio and shipped both within Australia and worldwide.

We look forward to printing your specially chosen files!
