Polmac Hamper Boxes For Fortnum & Mason

There is a great variety of hampers available for kids, for the older generation and for people who just want to be indulged. These are referred to as 'Pamper Hampers'.

If you check out this seasons hamper brochures you'll find that most feature traditional wicker baskets/  hampers. Traditional wicker hampers however, tend to have a slightly old-fashioned, colonial whiff about them although this may be a distinct advantage for some people.

A traditional wicker hamper will always figure in people's hearts but this year why not consider a more stylish, contemporary alternative.

Round Christmas Hamper Boxes

For instance, there are now hybrid hampers, or 'hamper boxes' that are made from a combination of wood and wicker infill panels.

There are also round hampers that look rather like tall hat boxes with lift off lids that are made from thin gauge Finnish plywood.

These hamper boxes can be supplied in a wide range of styles and finishes, including clear lacquer finishes, beautiful natural wood and colour stain finishes and vibrant block colours.

They can also be easily branded with printed logos or text, if a more personalised finish is required.

If you're feeling particularly creative, you can design your very own hamper boxes, so the next time you are thinking about sending a gift box, make yourself a cup of coffee, sit yourself down in your favourite easy chair and start designing. Now there's a thought!

The Enduring Appeal of Natural Wicker!

Have you ever received a wicker basket filled to overflowing, with a myriad of fabulous gifts, you 'd never think of buying. It's a real treat!

Polmac Wicker Baskets

Although wicker is seen as a traditional material, high quality wicker baskets are still very much in demand and popular. Many people like the light brown colour, which reminds them of something natural, or maybe of wood.

Wickers popularity can be attributed in part, to its ongoing use. When you send a wicker basket to someone, you're really sending them two gifts for the price of one!

                                                               
Wicker is an environmentally sustainable shrub and is the perfect cash crop, which is great news for the environment! It also directly contributes to the community where it's grown.

Polmac Wicker Baskets

Polmac wicker used for baskets, is sourced in Poland from managed crops. It's essentially an indigenous plant in Poland and has been grown there for centuries, although it originally came from China.

                                                              

Wicker is a very fast growing plant, unlike a traditional willow tree. It's grown in the Autumn and is cut back each season, making it an environmentally sustainable product.

The smooth, shiny varnished effect you often see, is produced by a boiling process, which is a more natural production process. 

However, colours can also be applied to wicker, for a more personalized effect. A dark brown, coloured wicker basket for example, can look more stylish!
