Framing Unlimited is an environmentally aware picture framing business.
ENVIRONMENT STATEMENT.
I endeavour to minimise the impact my framing service has on the environment through the processes, materials and products I use.
POLCORE® FRAME MOULDING.
Polcore ® is recycled polystyrene – an alternative picture moulding material.
Recycled polystyrene picture frame mouldings have a skin of HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) – known as ‘virgin’ on the outside of the profile which provides a smooth surface on which to finish.
The core of the moulding is made up of about 70% recycled polystyrene and 30% virgin polystyrene.
Recycled polystyrene is made up of waste products from mainly two sources:
The electronics industry
Plastic packaging – mainly from the food industry.
It contains NO detectable formaldehyde or carcinogenic substances and is free from lead.
The manufacturing process is clean.
Does not use spray paints.
The manufacturing process uses decorative transfer films.
Therefore the material that constitutes recycled polystyrene mouldings broadly conserves the use of the earth’s natural raw materials by using those that have been recycled.
WOOD FRAME MOULDINGS.
The ranges of wood products I use are from companies that purchase their timber from sustainable sources and reforestation projects.
Other ecological considerations include the use of water based paints and varnishes.
Hi, I hope you are all keeping safe, well and positive in these uncertain times?
As the workshop is closed during the lockdown, it’s giving me some time to explore some additional framing services I can offer my customers when I re-open.
I am often asked if I have ready made frames in stock to purchase. It’s something I did not offer in the past for a number of reasons;
1. Storage is limited at the workshop. 2. The vast frame selection would be unmanageable. 3. Overwhelming workload prior to lockdown (no time to make stock frames).
These are only a few of the factors that prevented me from offering the “Ready Made Frame” product.
So, the lockdown has given me time to formulate a plan!
I’m delighted to offer Ready Made Frames when the workshop re-opens.
There will be a selection of colours and standard frame sizes available to purchase on-line (click & collect) and at the workshop. Unfortunately there will not be a delivery/postage option.
Framing Unlimited strive to keep up with current trends. Listening to my customers feedback is key. I act upon your suggestions where possible.
“Every home needs a bit of sparkle.”
I am currently working on the pricing structure before launching the new range.
I think you will be pleasantly suprised at how affordable this range is going to be!
Keep an eye out for the launch
