Anodised Aluminium Labels

• For chemical and abrasion resistance the image is embedded below the 8 micron anodic layer.
• High UV resistance – our unique photographic images survive the toughest environments where 20 year plus* reliability is crucial.
• Withstands temperatures of -55°C up to 427°C*.
• *Optional gold chloride intensification treatment boosts UV to extreme and heat resistance to 427°C.
• Laser or die cut in standard or custom sizes and shapes.
• Available in a range of gauges from foil thin to robust self-supporting.
• All gauges, or combination of gauges can be laminated back to back to create two sided tags.
• Laminate any gauge to 3 or 4mm aluminium, powder coated or mill finish for additional strength.
• Background colours added by bath dyeing or digital overprinting for spot colour.
• Ideal for laser or rotary engraved marking, traditional stamping or dot peen marking.
• Meets or exceeds military specifications.
• Download our MetalPhoto specification sheet.

Where NOT to use MetalPhoto

• Washdown areas with 10% or greater caustic concentration.
• Temperatures in excess of 427°C for extended periods.

If you are in unsure of exact environmental conditions Stainless Steel is recommended.

0.08mm | Satin or Matte finish

• Great for die-cutting, this foil thin gauge forms to flat or curved surfaces.
• Combined with the 3M range of adhesives this is the ultimate in adhesive performance.
• Tamper proof. The adhesive power of 3M makes removal impossible without destruction – perfect for asset tracking.
• Super low profile with radius corners resists picking or snagging.
• Mark on site to leave a permanent de-bossed detail – a date, model, ratings etc with just a ball point pen.

0.13mm | Satin

• This low profile this gauge is the perfect in-betweener if 0.08mm is feeling too thin for your application.
• Forms to a gentle curve or flat surface. Easy to de-boss mark on site.

0.20mm | Satin or Matte finish

• Lightweight, low profile, but robust enough to resist rips and scuffs.
• Forms easily to a gentle curve, pre-forming is recommended for tighter curves.
• Our best priced anodised product.

0.30mm | Satin finish

• The great all-rounder, general purpose gauge well suited to most applications.
• Our lightest gauge suitable for mechanical attachment using screws or rivets etc.

0.50mm | Satin or Matte finish

• Perfect for ID and rating plates where variable user information will be fibre laser marked or rotary engraved.
• Suitable for mechanical attachment using screws or rivets etc, usually with a 3M self-adhesive for added security.
• Pre-forming is required for curved surfaces.

0.80mm | Satin or Matte finish

• The heavy duty solution where variable user information will be stamped or dot peen marked.
• Self-supporting for when light structural integrity is required.
• Stays flat when fixed with rivets or screws for maximum security.
• Capable of taking a real beating in high demand industrial environments.

• High resistance to abrasion and most chemicals – the image is embedded below the super hard 24 micron anodic layer.
• High to moderate UV resistance in darker colours. We recommend MetalPhoto for harsh UV resistance.
• Full range of strong, vibrant colours with brilliant image clarity.
• Withstands temperatures over 300°C.
• Laser cut in standard or custom sizes and shapes.
• Available in a range of gauges from foil thin to robust self-supporting.
• All gauges, or combination of gauges can be laminated back to back to create two sided tags.
• Laminate any gauge to 3 or 4mm aluminium in mill or powder coated finish for additional strength.
• Ideal for laser or rotary engraved marking, traditional stamping or dot peen marking.

Where NOT to use AliChroma

• High UV environments, especially with light colours. If in doubt, leave colour out.
• Washdown areas with 10% or greater caustic concentration.
• Temperatures in excess of 300°C for extended periods.

If you are in unsure of exact environmental conditions MetalPhoto or Stainless Steel is recommended.
