At Photomart, we understand that everyone has their own unique style and preferences. That's why we're proud to offer our customers a choice of different styles when it comes to our cardboard mount frames. Currently, we offer three different styles: classic black and silver, classic black and black, and contemporary black and silver.
The classic black and silver mount frame is a timeless design that has been popular for decades. It features a thick, black border around the photograph, with a thin silver trim around the edge. This classic design is perfect for those who prefer a more traditional and elegant look. The black and black classic style has the same thick black border, but without the silver trim, giving it a more understated and subtle appearance.
For those who prefer a more modern look, we offer the contemporary black and silver mount frame. This style features a thinner black border

Photomart is a company that knows how to have fun, and they proved it once again by having an exciting pancake making competition on Pancake Day! The event was a smashing success, and everyone had a great time participating and watching their colleagues’ flip pancakes.
The competition was held in the company's break room, which had been transformed into a makeshift kitchen with all the necessary equipment and ingredients laid out for the contestants. There were spatulas, mixing bowls, measuring cups, and of course, pancake batter and syrup. The atmosphere was electric, with everyone excited to show off their pancake-making skills.
Then it was time for the competition to begin. The contestants had 30 minutes to try make the best pancake, and flip it, without having it fall on the floor.The winner would be determined by the quality and look of their pancake and the quality of their flipping skills.

Since our founding, Photomart has always been proud to be a leader of innovation within the Photography industry. Since launching our very successful waste disposal scheme back in November 2022, we have had great successes in helping to combat climate change and do more for the environment, by stopping printer media being chucked away in any old bin.
We've now gone a step further and have put recycling efforts into place. All media now sent back to us, as part of our Recycling Scheme (Previously our Responsible Waste Disposal Scheme), will now be converted into clean energy, through catalytic conversion processes, in order to power turbines, where any extra energy will be exported back to the National Grid. Any leftover material will then be used as aggregate for roads and building foundations, ensuring nothing is sent to landfills.
Photomart are extremely proud to be the first Dye-Sublimation distributors in the UK
