Welcome to
Better Frame
Better Frame is the first closed-loop circular economy recycled picture frame made in the US from
Foam Packaging waste (aka Styrofoam)
We know the picture you are framing is important to you and now for the first time you can also feel the same way about your frame.
If your frame is ever broken or no longer needed, you can simply send it back to us. Better Frame utilizes a one of a kind manufacturing process that allows us to regrind your frame and use the regrinds to make a new frame keeping this one time waste material out of our landfills for good!
Picture Frames made from waste plastic and NOT from tree's
at Better Frame we believe tree's belong in your picture
and not around it.
Watch our videos below and see how
Better Frame was created!
Better Frame will soon be offering our picture frames for sale on this web site and at partner framing shops. In the meantime, if you would like to know more about our recycling process, send us an email and we will be happy to get back to you with more information.
Welcome to
Foam Cycle
Welcome to the Future of Recycling
The recycled foam needed to make a Better Frame starts with foam that is collected from a Foam Cycle recycling system. Foam Cycle is a patent-pending Foam Packaging
recycling system designed to be placed at municipal outdoor recycling drop off centers.
Foam-To-Frame
Closed Loop Recycling Process
This video tells the story of recycling Foam Packaging waste in Middletown, New Jersey and how Mayor Tony Perry took charge and added this important closed loop recycling program to the towns recycling drop off center.
Here's a closer look at how the Foam-to-Frame
closed loop circular recycling process works
In 2015, world leaders agreed to 17 goals for a better world by 2030. These goals have the power to end poverty, fight inequality and stop climate change. Guided by the goals, it is now up to all of us, governments, businesses, civil society and the general public to work together to build a better future for everyone on our planet.
Better Frame is a closed loop recycled product that is proud to adhere to goal #12 of this
Global Sustainable Development Initiative.
In collaboration with Foam Cycle and The Sussex County Municipal Utilities Authority, Better Frame is a closed loop recycled product that was developed in the summer of 2019 with help from a group of exceptional students from Montclair State University's
"Green Team".
