Windsor Winners
Monday, 12 July 2010

windsor10-s.jpgWe had another enjoyable day at the Photovision Roadshow at Windsor on the 29th June. We held a prize draw and we are pleased to announce our lucky winners.

1st Prize of 4 of our Creativity Backgrounds rolls goes to Vallabh Kargathra

2nd Prize of 2 of our Creativity Backgrounds rolls goes to Maninder Ghatoray (pictured) mgphotovision.co.uk

Congratulations to both of you!

And a BIG thank you to all of you who came to say hello on the day, it's always great to put a face to a name or indeed to see old friends and get updates on your practice! The overall feeling was one of optimism for the industry and people are being creative with their marketing, not least in injecting a bit of colour into their studio portfolio, glad our 50 colours are being put to good use!

See our events page for future exhibition dates.

Our greenest white yet!
Thursday, 20 May 2010
superiorenviornmentallogo.jpgWe've added a new "colour" to the range.

 Our new ECO WHITE is a beautiful clean white paper background - same good quality as our Arctic and Polar white, but the added advantage is that it is even kinder to the environment. What makes it so Eco? Well, it's manufactured from Certified Managed Forests, and produced from 100% Hydro Power. It is also ECF Guaranteed (Elemental Chlorine Free) and contains recycled fibre. Obviously it's 100% recyclable, but schools also love it if you give them the off cuts!

 

Promote yourself and your studio as green and kind to the environment! Try this on your next order of White and see what you think.
