That is terrific Julie. I have used Dibond as a pastel support and would do do again as it is so light and wonderful for large paintings. My "Alicia Blue" was done on that.
If you want the edges turned, take it to a professional sign-maker as it has to be properly scored and bent. If you do this you will not need to frame it. You can glue and screw two appx 18" x ( depending on the final size) 2"x 3" oak strips on the back along each side to hold the hanging wire.
I do no know if this can be done BEFORE or AFTER the panel is bent. It makes kind of a shallow tray.
I would seem a little experimentation is due here. It is really an exciting development. I know that the sites devoted to archival services sell it and also sell it covered with canvas, but you pay a pretty penny for it. Thank-you for posting this very useful information.
