Abacus Creative Resources

I've used Abacus for various art supplies and also for student art packs in various art technician roles for colleges. What sets Abacus aside from some of the other suppliers we also used, was the high quality and specialist items that could be added to the art packs. Students appreciated having some of the higher quality products in their packs. Ordering the packs was very simple.

Abacus is simply a brilliant company to buy from. I spoke to Roddy on the phone who was incredibly helpful and polite and then corresponded with Bonnie who was equally great.

Bonnie was patient and helpful with a large order and took the time to ensure everything was correct, making sure to change the quote with each update. She was very communicative and everything was efficient. Thank you!

Excellent service, all the team are really helpful - always willing to sort out urgent orders - a great range of products at great prices. Highly recommended for all your educational art requirements.

Having recently ordered printmaking equipment for my school Art Department, we have been blown away by the fantastic service, communication, prompt delivery and high quality materials received. The prices are also really competitive and we will no doubt continue to turn to Abacus to resource our department in the future. We are very happy to now be supporting a local company who can offer more than what larger companies can offer at better value, thank you, Abacus!

As a college, we have now transferred over to Abacus for all of our specialist Art & Graphic supplies. All of the orders come quicky, well packed and with everything we have asked for. We have never had a problem with anything, and Roddy is always extremely attentive to our wishes to expand. It is so lovely to have someone physically visit us and show us new supplies, and I am always confident in what we are getting in terms of quality.
We also have our personalised packs for Art/Graphics sent every year for students. These are all personalised to our preferences and excellent for our student development.

My first order with Abacus, first class service from Bonnie when I had a problem trying to pay via the internet. Excellent product, excellent prices
and delivery the next day. Perfect. Looking forward to a long and happy working relationship.

This company is a family run business and the family are amazing, very helpful and always take time to have a chat and a giggle with me!
The prices are very competitive and they have a fantastic selection of products as well as a little packet of biscuits with every order.
Really can't fault this company as they have been a great help to me with their time, knowledge and commitment.
Also thank you Roddy for getting my order to me in a hurry when no-one else could.
Thank you Roddy and Dad
