Framing goes GREEN!

It’s official. The framing industry is jumping on the green train. Forward thinking companies like Larson-Juhl and Nurre Caxton are now offering “earth-friendly mouldings”. Larson has just introduced the Biltmore collection, inspired by the Asheville, NC homes’ intricate, antique frames. The collection is the industry’s first Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) certified frame moulding.

Following suit, Nurre Caxton has introduced EcoCare, a moulding line produced with wood from managed forests- “For every tree we use, we replace one”. Excellent! In addition, moulding colors are achieved with organic, water-based stains. No oils or chemical solvents are used.

In support of our industry’s green initiative, Gallery 17.92 will be offering 15% OFF these frame lines through May. Save the planet and save some money- what could be better?
