Here at Protek we are constantly upcycling and decorating every wooden object within our reach. It’s great fun for us and not only helps us demonstrate what our colours look like when used, it also has the added bonus of making our homes & gardens more beautiful and timber products last longer.

Back in the autumn of 2015 we helped out Brighton based lifestyle journalist Maxine Brady, with a garden project. We teamed her up with Garden Street to find an attractive solution to an ugly problem – how to make your bin and recycling store a garden feature rather than an eyesore.

You can see what she did here at her blog http://welovehomeblog.com/2015/10/stop-ugly-recycling-bins-cluttering-up-your-garden/
