BonanzaWood™
BonanzaWood™, made by Framerica®, is a solid material, with a very smooth, fine-textured surface. It cuts like pine, and readily accepts nails and hangers. BonanzaWood™ provides the expressive finish and look of solid wood, at a fraction of solid wood cost.
About 9 million tons of residual wood each year … wood shavings, chips and sawdust; formerly-wasted trim, ends and other byproducts; post-consumer and "urban" wood, such as pallets and construction materials … are collected, cleaned and milled to uniform-size particles. Excess moisture is removed, and a binder is added. In an automated, computer-controlled process, the combination is then formed under intense heat and pressure.

Frames You Can Decorate
Many customers wonder which frames are OK to paint or stain. For decorating frames, we recommend our decorate-it series. This series comes in three sizes, with 1, 2, and 3-inch mouldings. You can also decorate our unfinished series. The unfinished series is our decorate-it series with a bevel, and also comes in 3 different mouldings.

Wrapped Moulding
Our BonanzaWood™ mouldings are wrapped mouldings--meaning the back of the moulding will not appear as normal wood, like most wood frames. Rather, the back will be a flat continuation of how the frame looks on the front. The mouldings are wrapped on either printed laminate, mica, or vinyl.
How to Prevent Your Back from Warping
The best way to avoid having your frame's back warp is to hang your frame in an area that is not in contact with direct sunlight or moisture.
