Aluminum is a soft silver colored metal commonly used for trophy and plaque plates. It can be rotary or diamond drag engraved, laser engraved, sublimated, screen printed, or used with most direct printing systems. We offer several types of aluminum products - coated aluminum, sublimation aluminum, anodized aluminum, marble aluminum, and laser aluminum. Thicknesses available from .020" to .125".

Coated Aluminum

Coated aluminum is available with two types of finishes - transparent and opaque. Transparent finishes are created by coating bright or satin finished aluminum with a clear or tinted lacquer. Opaque finishes are created by rolling a solid color over raw aluminum. Opaque colors do not have a lacquer finish. Satin and bright styles can be laser engraved to either satin or bright substrate. The satin and bright finishes can also be sublimated. This material is not suitable for outdoor use.

All sheet metal products may be combined for quantity pricing.

Anodized Aluminum

Anodized aluminum is created through an electrochemical process which allows the color to penetrate the pores of the aluminum, resulting in an actual change in the color of the aluminum on the surface of the substrate. The advantages of anodized aluminum are: harder more abrasive resistant surface, increased natural resistance to corrosion, more durability. Most anodized aluminums are colored on both sides. Anodized aluminum is not recommended for sublimation. Our anodized aluminum is typically used in decorative applications and is not suitable for outdoor use with the exception of the silver finish.
