WoodUbend are a small, energetic and vibrant company situated in the North of England, with manufacturing plants in central Europe. Their sister company, Posh Chalk Interiors of Leeds, is run by Solly Jo Lewis, who has a wealth of experience in crafts and upcycling, and is well-known to many artisans, including a worldwide community, through her entertaining live programs on Facebook.
The WoodUbend story started just a few years ago, when Solly Jo came across a new manufacturing process and realised the potential for what it offered. Bringing the concept back to the UK, and starting with a small range of designs, they sold their first moulding at the end of October 2018. That small range has now expanded enormously as the range has grown in popularity, and they now export to many parts of the world.
Altogether, there are several thousand mould designs currently in existence, ranging from the smallest embellishments through long trims up to large and elaborate designs produced to special order. Some of the moulds used to create these mouldings are themselves made using the latest 3D printing technology.
With expert teams both in the UK and at the manufacturing plants, WoodUbend is going from strength to strength.
