Langmead Memorials News

For the last 18 months, Langmead had been adding specialist products to its extensive range of memorials to enhance their client’s choice when remembering their loved ones.

Without a shadow of a doubt, the most popular of these products has been the very first Ceramic Photograph tile called ‘Immortile’.  This is a radically new product which recreates a photograph three dimensionally in ceramic.  Classical elegant and very tactile it will last forever without fading.

Langmead’s Andy Brooker says: “Clients who wished to adorn their memorials with an everlasting image of their loved one have been absolutely delighted with their choice of an Immortile plaque  We set the plaques into the headstones and they look very good indeed.”

Immortile’s inventor, Julian Dakowski, has recently perfected another exciting product which Langmead has in their showroom in Pinhoe Road.  Another ‘world first’, the Wooden Photograph again recreates any photograph three-dimensionally.  Wonderfully warm and tactile, the Wooden Photograph may be cut into any timber product and Langmead are using the technique to allow clients to have their loved one’s photographs on wooden cross memorials.

“It has taken a very long time to perfect these processes” says Julian, “but to be able to two world firsts is very exciting”.

Both products fit well into Langmead’s business but they have a much wider appeal in all areas where being able to keep memories is important.  Whether it is a memory box with a Wooden Photograph of the new baby cut into the top for keeping a lifetime of memories, or a beautiful Immortile set in a silver frame to celebrate a wedding or an anniversary, the everlasting, tactile and non-fading properties will appeal universally.

“Watch out for our new website, ‘The Memory Button’, it will be on line very soon”, says Julian.
