About us
Eleven years in the same unit
You are handing over a car for the best part of a week. This page is the evidence that we are a real business in a real building that can put it right if we get it wrong.

How it started
A clean room,
A clean room,
not a lock-up
Foundry started wrapping vans in a draughty unit two doors down. The thing that changed everything was sealing the bay and heating it. Vinyl does not care how good you are if there is dust in the air — every particle under the film is a bump you cannot get out afterwards.
So the unit is enclosed, filtered and heated to a working temperature year round. That is not a luxury for a wrapping studio, it is the difference between a finish that looks right in daylight and one that does not.
Enclosed, filtered, heated bay
Vehicles inside overnight, never on the street
Panels stripped, not masked around
Film offcuts kept on file for repairs
Cover
What we’re actually insured for
Most wrap studios say “fully insured” and stop there, which means nothing. There are separate covers and plenty of businesses carry one and not the others. Certificates are on the wall.
Public liability — £5m
Injury to a member of the public or damage to their property arising from what we do.
Employers’ liability — £10m
Compulsory with staff. The legal minimum is £5m and non-compliance runs to fines of up to £2,500 a day.
Motor trade road risk
We road test and we collect, so we carry it. A studio that does neither may not.
Customer vehicles on premises
Your car is covered while it is with us, including overnight inside the unit.
Straight answers
What we won’t do
Four jobs we turn down, and why. If someone else will take them on, ask what you're getting.
Wrap over bad paint
Film follows what is underneath. A chip shows as a dimple, a scratch shows as a line. We correct first or we tell you it will show.
Wrap a fresh respray
New paint needs weeks to gas off. Film on top traps solvent and the finish suffers. We will give you a date, not a refusal.
Quote without seeing it
Photographs get you a range. The firm number comes once the car is in front of us, and then it does not move.
Mask instead of strip
It is quicker, it is cheaper, and it lifts within months. If someone has quoted you much less, ask which one they are doing.
The team
Who’ll be doing it
Four of us, no subcontractors. The person who quotes your car is one of the people who wraps it.

Come and look at the unit
Plenty of people want to see where the car will be before they leave it. Walk in any working day, or send the registration and we will come back the same day.
