A new brochure showing all the collections available from memorial wholesalers Odlings in one place is now available.

Odlings wholesale memorials from both Bristol to the South and Hull in the North, Hull also being their main manufacturing site.

Although they supply a wide range of memorials, they really come into their own with their talented artwork department – and the new brochure shows off many highly imaginative new designs as well as bringing new shapes to the market. It adds up to more options for the bereaved without massively increasing the budget.

Among this year’s innovations are complete ranges of Children’s and Churchyard memorials.

The children’s memorials give a new range from a classic marble vase (with the Odlings touch) through to a Fairytale Castle. They can even translate a child’s own drawing on to a stone.

With the Churchyard collection Odlings have considered their carbon footprint and sourced many of the stones from the UK, including Yorkstone, Portland limestone, slate and DeLank Cornish Granite, which complement perfectly the rest of the range created specifically for the churchyard setting.

The manufacture of memorials, especially bespoke memorials and designs is a highly specialist and incredibly time consuming exercise. Using a wholesaler such as Odlings gives you their expertise and supply of stone, allowing you to concentrate on spending time with the bereaved.

Although most memorial masons have the skills and expertise to create the majority of memorials, there is always the fine balance between time spent as a craftsman, and time spent with customers. Using a Wholesaler will never replace the customer interface, however they can create and deliver your stones. So while with a customer, you will be comfortable in the knowledge that you are supplying both a first class service and a first class memorial.
