their biggest challenge. “We have excellent repeat busi-
ness after a client’s first purchase from us” says Frank.
In their continuing effort to differentiate their prod-
uct Frank went back to school in recent years and com-
pleted his Certificate IV in Engineering with an em-
phasis on welding. This has really helped extend the
creative options to clients and address the challenges
of working with aluminium.
The successful process of dye sublimation printing onto
metal started to bring new suppliers into this growing mar-
ket. Print 2 Metal have only ever used ChromaLuxe metal
panels. Over the past eight years they have experienced
ChromaLuxe’s continual effort to improve their product
and make it the world’s leading brand of metal print media.


Last year they purchased a Mimaki TS300P-
sublimation printer and use Mimaki specialised sub-
limation inks. The results have been outstanding and
without the Mimaki they doubt they could have met the
requirements of the Head On Photo Festival in Sydney
earlier this year where, with the support of ChromaLuxe,
they printed approximately 470 images onto metal.
Print 2 Metal continue to attract more photogra-
phers and artists looking for a high-end, colour man-
aged product with a modern aesthetic that will set
their work apart. ❂
