Polcore Mouldings
Mainline is the registered owner of the Polcore brand.
What is Polcore?
Polcore is a highly specified, extruded moulding made from recycled polystyrene and provides a durable, strong and environmentally friendly alternative to wood picture frame mouldings - 38% more carbon efficient in fact!
We are proud to offer a moulding product that protects the Earth's natural resources and commits to the 'reduce, reuse and recycle' philosophy.
Polcore mouldings look terrific, are economically priced and are available in over 1000 different designs and finishes.
Environmentally friendly
Made from a clean and waste free manufacturing process using solar and hydroelectric energy, Polcore is 80% to 95% recycled polystyrene. It is 100% recyclable and all Polcore mouldings are stamped to show their recycling status.

Every Polcore moulding has a coating of High Impact Polystyrene creating a perfectly smooth surface for our stunning, 100% recyclable, decorative, high quality finishes.
Christmas 2024
It's that time of the year again! This year we are supporting three charities chosen by members of the Mainline Team. A donation was made in lieu of Christmas cards.
Rainbows is a Loughborough-based hospice that supports every baby, child and young person to fulfil their potential, and help families make the most of every precious moment, while capturing memories and keepsakes to treasure.
St Leonard's Hospice provides care and support for terminally ill people, and people with life limiting illnesses in the hospice setting, at home or in the community. St Leonard's is based in York.
St Barnabas Hospice is a local independent charity that supports more than 12,000 people across Lincolnshire affected by life-limiting or terminal illnesses.
Giving back
Mainline will be 30 years old in 2026! To celebrate this milestone, we have set a goal of reaching £30,000 in charity donations.
Previously, Mainline has been delighted to support regional, national and local charities including Ukraine Relief, the RNLI, Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance, Dove Cottage Day Hospice and Emmanuel House Nottingham.
We look forward to continuing to support charities through 2024 to achieve our birthday target.
Fantastic value on smaller orders
We are continually working to find ways of ensuring that our prices are amongst the most competitive. Our pack rate prices are available for orders of as little as 6 metres on many wood mouldings. This gives you access to some of the finest quality picture frame mouldings at the very best prices.
