Latest Hardware and Resin Panels at GlobalTrends



Beautiful walls require beautiful hardware.  GlobalTrends carries a full complement of both indoor and outdoor hardware to mount our products.  

Our resin panels can be mounted in a variety of ways.  We carry several sizes of standoff mounts, which allow the panels to be mounted away from the wall, in varying distances.  The back of the standoff mount screws into the wall, and the head is mounted through a hole drilled in the panel.  The result is a clean look that shows no screw or nail heads!


If you plan to use your resin panels for shower enclosures or doors, GlobalTrends has you covered there too.  Flat, bendable hinges and corner mounts ensure the panels will be secure, and rubber pads inside the mount protect the panel from scratching or rattling. View our resin panel projects.


Outdoor mounting hardware needs to be heavy and finished to withstand the elements.  At the same time, hardware should be simple enough so as not to detract from the panel or project.  GlobalTrends carries simple shiny chrome or brushed aluminum mounts that can bolted into a wall, and provide enough strength and coverage to keep your panels secure outdoors. Our hardware solutions are complimentary to your doors, Bio Resin panels, and glass art pieces without detracting from their beauty. View our Hardware Products

Metallic Drapery - Metallic Coils and Metallic Sequins

Ask a contemporary architect about drapes, and you’ll get a sneer and an eye roll.  Long seen as stodgy and “old,” drapery gets a makeover with metallic coils and sequindrapery.  The worst part about drapes is that they can remind people of their Grandmother’s house!


I found these coiled curtains and have come up with so many different uses for them.  I’ve used them as quick dividers (mounted on a track with S-Hooks) for large rooms, Curtains to block light, Privacy for outdoor patios, and I’ve even used the smallest gauge loops for a shower curtain!. View our collection of Metallic Coils.

Sequins don’t always have to scream pizzazz.  Used as a full curtain, the drapes pool under the window like a shimmery reflecting pond.   I’ve found a couple of other great uses for these drapes.  In a retail store, I’ve covered whole walls, and used hooks to hang garments for sales or displays.  I think my most favorite way to use this drape is to cover buffet tables with it.   


 Stack books or boxes at different levels, then cover with a table cloth and drape with the sequins.  The levels display buffet items attractively, and the sequins attract attention and add just the right touch.View our collection of Metallic sequins.
