Pressed Metal Interiors for Residential and Commercial Fit Outs

 

Pressed metal ceilings are also called tin ceilings, art metal ceilings, tin tiles, ceiling tin or faux tin ceilings.

These words are used interchangeably on this website.  Believe it or not, Australian pressed metal panels are not even made from tin!  We now use a far better product - an aluminium alloy.

Dies from as much as 100+ years ago have been re-created and we are now able, once again, to enjoy the decorative ceilings and walls from yesteryear but with added advantages.

These beautifully crafted panels are being cleverly utilized in both the home situation and in a wide variety of contemporary commercial fit outs.  Depending on the design chosen and the way in which the panels are painted you can achieve a very  formal look or a comfy, cosy cottage effect.  When  two  identical  patterns  are painted  in  very different ways they then become barely recognizable as the same product.

Our pressed metal products are now being found in restaurants, night clubs, mansions, shops, private residences and even the main Sydney railway station ticketing office. Their use is only limited by the imagination.

Feel welcome to ask us how to achieve the look that you want in your project.  We can help you with both designs and calculations.  Personal client contact is what our business is famous for.

Learn why our pressed metal panels are far superior to similar looking products

*Durability

Our pressed metal is made from durable aluminium which moves and flexes with the structure making it ideal for cyclone/tornado areas. The panels won't rust, crack or fall off and they resist moisture and odours. This makes their life-span virtually unlimited. The panels are made to lap over each other, many having flanges to assist overlocking.  This creates a seamless join.

*Designs/Patterns

We offer a stunning range of  metal interiors to suit Victorian, Federation, Art Nouveau, Art Deco and contemporary styles. Take a look at the range of  pressed metal ceiling patterns and pressed metal wall patterns where you will find so many uniquely Australian designs. 
 

 

 

*Panel weights and dimensions

The aluminium alloy used to make the panels is very strong, yet extremely lightweight. The panels are large - usually 1828 mm x 610 mm (6' x 2') or 1828 mm x 915 mm 6' x 3') so a large area can be fitted relatively quickly.

Wall Panels


Lily panel

 


Art Nouveau panel

  There is a range of pressed metal suitable for walls. The designs featured in our metal walls range are one-way designs suited for vertical surfaces. Additionally, many of the ceiling patterns are also suited to wall application.

Metal panelling can also be used to great effect just on the lower parts of the walls - just up to Dado height. Many of our designs are 915 mm (3') high and these are especially suited for lower wall application.

Wall panels traditionally sit on top of skirting boards and are finished with a timber trim across the top.  Also, there is a wall frieze which can be fitted between the main panels and the timber.

 

 

Painting your pressed metal ceilings

Most clients choose to paint their pressed metal ceilings themselves in one tone. The patterns are pressed deeply into the panels so both natural or electric light create lovely shadows on the designs.  If you are painting your ceilings  we suggest you use an oil based paint. More information on this topic can be found by following this link painting pressed metal ceilings.

"I got the package on Saturday. It all looks good! After looking at it on the site and seeing it in real life, it's just larger than life! I can't believe how detailed everything is. It hasn't been installed yet, we're still kicking around colors. I can't wait to see it from the ground looking up!"   Paul Stewart, Secane, PA, USA.
 

"The ceiling panels arrived late last week very well packaged and in excellent condition. I absolutely love the patterns - they are beautiful. I am currently painting them before installation and I am even enjoying the job because I get to look at the patterns as I work. Thanks for all your time and effort in helping to supply us with such lovely ceilings!"
