Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) Certificate Frame

Achieving your CIOB qualification is a testament to your dedication, expertise, and professional standing in the construction industry. This hand-crafted certificate frame has been designed specifically to display your CIOB award with the distinction it deserves — transforming a proud achievement into a lasting centrepiece for your home or office.

Crafted for Your Achievement

Every frame is individually hand-made to the highest standard, ensuring a precise, tailored fit for your CIOB certificate. The frame arrives fully assembled and ready to hang, so you can showcase your qualification immediately. A removable backboard makes it straightforward to insert your certificate without risk of damage.

Quality Materials, Built to Last

The glazing is anti-glare styrene, which reduces the damaging effects of UV light on your certificate, helping to preserve its appearance over time. The mount board is acid-free and archival in quality — essential for long-term preservation, as it will not yellow or degrade over time. The name of the Chartered Institute of Building is foil-printed directly onto the mount, adding a refined, professional finishing touch that elevates the overall presentation.

Your Choice of Frame

This frame is available in four distinct moulding styles, allowing you to choose the finish that best suits your taste and surroundings:

• Black and Gold — a classic, authoritative combination that commands attention in any professional setting

• Teak and Gold — a warm, traditional finish that brings a sense of heritage and craftsmanship

• Contemporary — a clean, modern style suited to minimalist interiors and contemporary workspaces

• Black and Silver — a sleek, sophisticated finish that offers a cooler, contemporary take on a traditional style

The mount has been carefully selected in a colour chosen to complement the CIOB’s own institutional colours, ensuring a cohesive and polished appearance.

A Proud Institution with Deep Roots

The Chartered Institute of Building has one of the most distinguished histories of any professional body in the United Kingdom. It was founded on 6 March 1834, when a group of Master Builders — including the renowned Thomas Cubitt — began meeting at a coffee house on Ludgate Hill in London to uphold professional standards in the construction trade. Incorporated in 1884 as the Institute of Builders and renamed the Institute of Building in 1965, the organisation was granted its Royal Charter in September 1980 — a landmark moment that cemented its public interest remit and its status as the leading body for construction professionals. Today, with over 48,000 members across 100 countries, the CIOB remains the world’s largest and most influential professional body for construction management and leadership. Earning a CIOB qualification places you within a lineage of excellence stretching back nearly two centuries.
