Wooden Frames
Because every wooden frame is unique
The wooden slats are sorted according to their individual characteristics so that they match perfectly in colour and grain after gluing the mitres. For a perfect mitre we check the cut edges and - if necessary - these are reworked in colour. In addition, the corners are reinforced with glued-in special steel angles. This is how a unique wooden picture frame is lovingly handcrafted.
Thomas
Since I was hired by the company HALBE in 2005, I have been able to get to know the work in almost every department. Three aspects have become particularly important to me in my work: the quality of the materials used, the care and cleanliness in the work and ultimately the perfection of each individual frame, so that I would hang it on my own wall at any time. What makes a frame my favorite? It has to be made of wood.
We are Thomas, Bernd and Oleg. Together we manufacture your wooden frames. Wood is a wonderful, natural material and convinces with its very own character. Every single one is absolutely unique.
Bernd
I have been part of the company HALBE since 1999. I started in the wood department, which was still quite small at that time. So during my time of service I also passed through the departments basic elements, glass, aluminium frames and workshop. Since 2010 I have been permanently responsible for the wood frame department. For me, there is no one special day, because every day offers something new. That's what makes it so exciting.
Oleg
I joined the HALBE team in November 2023 - so I'm still very new. I became aware of the position through a job advertisement and an acquaintance. As I live in the same town, it was the perfect opportunity. I'm currently in the wood department, so I'm a bit of a "woodworm". As HALBE frames hang all over the world, quality is my top priority. My favorite frame so far is a wood 16 natural oak, but I'm sure that will change over time, because every frame is special in its own way. As I've only recently started, I haven't had many memorable moments yet. On the other hand, life is varied, so there will still be one or two moments.
