"I have been marketing Plantations Shutters for close to 20 years. I believe in our product. Our Timber range is called Grangewood , it is a light hardwood. The product itself is produced under the kilned light conditions for eight weeks, it is dried to reach any resins and any oils. Paulownia is a lightweight hardwood that is laminated to release all the pressure, so it will not warp, twist or bend. It is then sanded and chromed for another three weeks. The next step is the five coats of paint which are solvent paints, this step gives our product a beautiful finish. They are fully adjustable. You’ll let maximum light into your property and command minimum light outside. Your property looks beautiful not only from the inside, but it looks beautiful from the outside too with an enhancing effect. This is the most satisfying job I have ever had, witnessing the joy the product brings to all the customers when I have measured a job. Once I have sold the job I like to go back there afterwards, and it brings me a great feeling of pride when customers feel happy with the results. "
