OUR MISSION

LIQMET manufactures the best liquid metal coatings. LIQMET inspires people to create and to transform their visions into beautiful metal art. The only limit is your imagination.

LIQMET Liquid Metals was founded in 2003 in Australia. We now supply our liquid metals to over 30 countries around the world.

Mission History What is it Benefits

BEGINNING - 2001

It all started in 2001 when we had the idea to simplify the casting process for bronze statues. There was a need to make a material that was strong enough, easy to use, affordable and looked like real metal. After a couple of years of research and experimentation, the coatings were created, and a patent was obtained.

2003

When creating liquid metals LIQMET, it was important for us that using our material would not require a lot of experience, expensive equipment and tools. With our non-toxic liquid metals, it is possible to create a metal surface in any conditions, with minimal skills and a minimum set of tools, even at home. And at the same time, a surface quality that matches real casting can be achieved.
We manufacture liquid metals in two different viscosities. If our client does not have special professional skills (e.g. painting with a spray gun or sprayer), they can still use our metals. For example, the ‘brush’ viscosity can be applied with any simple tool (brush, spatula or regular roller) and obtain a unique metallic finish.
With our liquid metals, you can save money and complete a project from start to finish without needing to contact a liquid metal applicator. You can become one yourself.
Our metals can also expand the range of finishes that your business offers.
Or you can create a new product using our metals —for example, metallic doors or panels.
Our head office and factory are located in Australia.

2020

We manufacture liquid metals in Australia and sell them worldwide. We currently have distributors in Germany and New Zealand, and we have numerous applicators in countries around the world. We are open to discussing distributorship in your country.

WHAT IS LIQMET LIQUID METAL COATING?

LIQMET is an unique and unequalled decorative metal coating system, the result of three years of research and development. LIQMET is an Australian made product and a registered trade mark. This system replaces traditional casting for sculptures and other kinds 3D-object manufacturing. Our metal coating technology allows the use of 3D models made from cheap substrates like timber, plastic, MDF and even foam. Only 1mm of LIQMET cold-spray decorative metal coating applied onto any substrate gives a solid cast metal look.
Another goal we wanted to achieve was to avoid dangerous materials. It took us six months to develop and test different polymers. As a result, we don’t use polyester resin in our manufacturing process. Our decorative metal coatings don’t have any smell and can be applied without special safety equipment.
LIQMET decorative metal coating is 2 pack system containing a metal in liquid form and a hardener.

PART A - A LIQUID METAL

The LIQMET decorative metal system is available in the following metals and alloys:
Zinc- Smoked Chrome Platinum- Gold Antique Bronze- Rose Alloy Bronze- "Tahiti" Antique Copper- Aqualloy Copper- Brass Aluminium- Antique Brass Iron- Graphite - non - metal Pewter

PART B - A HARDENER.

Only 10% of the hardener required for 1kg/2.20 pounds of Part A. 10% of the hardener added to the metal allows to polymerize(dry) material during 16-24 hours at room temperature.
All 16 metals and alloys and a graphite manufactured in 2 viscosities: SPRAY and BRUSH. Different viscosities allow to apply metal with unlimited thickness from 0.25 mm up to 10 cm or more without settling and cracks.
Also we manufacture a fire-retardant range of decorative metal coatings for a surfaces where very high temperatures involved.

LIQMET METAL COATINGS CAN BE APPLIED ON VARIETY OF SUBSTRATES LIKE:

Liqmet Decorative metals are supplied in 3 different sizes: small(1kg), medium (6kg) and large(11kg).

OUR DECORATIVE METAL SYSTEM HAS MANY BENIFITS:

  • Looks and feels like a solid metal
  • No any smell
  • No polyester resin
  • We use Australian ingredients which proofed by Australia made logo.
  • Mostly made from recycling materials.
  • Solvent free VOC - 0
  • Metals can be mixed together to create new metal colour
  • Durable
  • Does not shrink after application
  • UV resistance
  • Doesn't conduct electricity
  • All metal finishes and alloys, except iron, are non-megnatic
  • Light-weight and cost-effective
  • Applied to almost any substrates
During 15 year on the market thousand jobs were done around the world which prove an outstanding quality of LIQMET decorative metal coating system.

One of the best examples of durability and quality of LIQMET metal coating system are applications on motorbikes and cars. Motorbikes and cars surfaces are experiencing big weather and human impact. We provide a warranty for 30 years.

    Typography is the art and technique

    Typography is the art and technique of arranging type to make written language legible, readable and appealing when displayed. The arrangement of type involves selecting typefaces, point size, line length, line-spacing (leading), letter-spacing (tracking), and adjusting the space within letters pairs (kerning).
