Metal Photo®
Photographic-quality images and fine detail sealed beneath anodized aluminum — exceptional durability and resolution.
Overview
Metal Photo® is a photographic process that seals a high-resolution image beneath the anodized surface of aluminum. The result is a plate with photographic detail and grayscale capability that shrugs off abrasion, chemicals, and decades of UV.
It’s the gold standard for barcode and asset plates, military data plates, schematics, and anything that needs fine detail to stay readable for the life of the equipment.
Metalphoto’s photographic process embeds barcodes and serial data beneath a sapphire-hard anodic layer, producing scannable plates rated for 20+ years outdoors. The go-to spec when a barcode absolutely cannot fail.
Metalphoto is named in numerous military specifications for UID and equipment data plates because the image is sealed inside the anodized aluminum itself. It withstands abrasion, chemicals, salt spray, and temperature extremes that destroy printed plates.
Photographic resolution reproduces fine-line schematics, wiring diagrams, and dense instructional text with perfect fidelity at plate scale. Ideal for lubrication charts and operating diagrams mounted right on the equipment.
