About SculptMetal™
What is SculptMetal™?
SculptMetal™ is a Composite of metal and minerals bonded with advanced polymers and reinforced with continuous Carbon/Kevlar™/Glass fibers. The surface is finished to resemble bronze, nickel, iron and other metals. The matrix is composed of 50% recycled material. Various patina or antiquing techniques are applied and the completed items is sealed in a clear coat finish. SculptMetal™ can be painted to match any color.

How is SculptMetal™ better than traditional foundry metal?
- SculptMetal™ is easier to install.
- SculptMetal™ costs less to make, transport and install.
- SculptMetal™ can be fabricated and delivered to the job site much more quickly than traditional architectural metal.
- SculptMetal™ is earth friendly:
- Uses less energy to make
- Less energy to transport
- Less energy to install
- Uses less than 1% of the non-sustainable metals typically consumed in traditional metal work
- Releases far less CO2 and other greenhouse gases during manufacturing
- Contains 50% recycled material
SculptMetal™ looks and feels exactly like foundry metal without metal's environment impact.
Foundry metals require massive amounts of energy during fabrication. They release lots of greenhouse gases while consuming 100% of their weight in non-sustainable resources. Foundry Metals are expensive and difficult to transport and install.
We are constantly working to improve all our products, processes and formulations; SculptMetal™ specifications are therefore subject to change at any time.
SculptMetal™ is Earth Friendly:
- 50% recycled content
- No harmful emissions during fabrication or after installation
- No CO2 release during fabrication-low carbon footprint
- Low energy consumption for fabrication
- Lighter weight reduces fuel needed for delivery
- Lighter weight and high strength reduce labor and energy required for installation
- Lighter weight and high strength reduce packaging material required for protection of item during transport
- Fabricated “on demand”- no excess inventory to maintain or spoil, minimizes potential for waste
- Delivered directly from manufacturer to job site, additionally reduces environmental costs of 3rd party handling and transport
- Quality, long lasting material has long product life cycle eliminating excessive costs of repair and replacement
