How do Dibond® Metal Prints differ from HD Metal Prints?
The key difference is how they are produced and the material the image is printed on.  Dibond prints have the image printed directly to the surface using large UV-Flatbed printers, while HD Metal Prints use a dye-sublimation approach. Dibond prints are great for general graphics and are more versatile in where they can be displayed, while HD Metal Prints are more likely to be used to print photos and fine art.
More detailed information on how they differ can be found in our blog:

What is Dibond®?
Dibond® is a brand name for a type of aluminum composite panel (ACP) that consists of three layers:
• Two outer sheets of aluminum (usually 0.012″ or about 0.3mm thick)
• A solid polyethylene (plastic) core in the middle
This sandwich-like construction gives Dibond several desirable properties:
• Lightweight but rigid – Much lighter than solid aluminum or wood, yet still very stiff and durable.
• Weather-resistant – Doesn’t rust or degrade easily, making it ideal for outdoor use.
• Smooth surface – Excellent for printing high-resolution graphics directly.
• Dimensional stability – Resistant to warping, bending, or expansion from heat and humidity.
• Long-lasting – Can last many years even in outdoor or harsh environments.
Dibond® is widely used for
• Signs and displays – Especially for outdoor signage, real estate signs, museum displays, and trade show graphics.
• Photographic and fine art mounting – Frequently used by artists and photographers for a sleek, modern presentation.
• Architectural cladding – Sometimes used on building facades or interiors.
• Retail and POP displays – Offers a premium, durable look for point-of-purchase advertising.
