Happy Halloween from Bumper Specialties!

If you thought Hurricane Sandy was frightening, you should see Bumper Specialties Haunted Halloween Office!!!

Our office was closed on Monday 10/29 and Tuesday 10/30 because of the extreme weather in our area.   We are glad to report no damages and we are back to business as usual. 

*The Autumn harvest photo was taken before the storm, it was not as pretty after the hurricane winds got a hold of it ;)

As you can see from the photos, Bumper Specialties takes Halloween very seriously!  

Come visit our Haunted Office… if you dare…

Unique Application of Bumper Specialties, Inc.'s Rubber Feet: Aluminyzed Photos

With countless applications in multiple industries throughout the world, including everything from cabinet door stops, picture frame corner protectors, and cutting board feet to iPod dock speakers, laptop rubber feet, and other electronics, we here at Bumper Specialties never cease to be amazed by some of the creative and unique uses for our Self-Adhesive Polyurethane Bumper Feet.

In this blog post, we would like to feature one of our customers who, we believe, has found a very interesting application on which to use our bumpers. Based in New York City, Aluminyze has come up with an awesome idea. They can take any picture, and infuse it into aluminum! The lightweight, durable, and beautiful image that results can be mounted directly onto the wall without the use of any type of frame. Along with the “Wall Float”, Aluminyze also offers “Easel” and “Acrylic Pedestal” fixture options.

The bumper stops serve to protect the wall behind the Aluminyzed Photos when mounted. Because these bumper pads do not contain plasticizers, oils, or fillers, they won't mar, scratch, or stain any surface, keeping the walls undamaged. The same bumpers are used for pictures in frames, too. Don’t forget! If you want to keep your walls free from damage, always use Rubber Feet to the lift the sharp edges of picture frames away from your walls.

Whether you're hanging a photo of your kids from the holidays or overseeing the world's largest art gallery, you're going to need a picture frame that doesn't damage the wall behind it. Our rubber bumper feet are perfect for keeping your picture frames in place. They act as a protective barrier between the sharp edges of the frame and the easily damaged wall beneath it. Don't compromise on quality. Make sure you're protected by Bumper Specialties.

While we have years of experience working with companies in the custom framing and framing accessories industries, we’re excited to see how Aluminyze is changing the game. Their frameless aluminum pictures are both simple and sophisticated. What could be better? See these stylish creations for yourself at http://aluminyze.com and order one today!
