The P5030C50 Polyurethane Pilaster Column Capital is a premium architectural element designed to elegantly crown vertical wall lines and recessed column designs. It is ideal for capping pilaster systems that create a structural, load-bearing illusion in high-ceilinged interiors or grand building entrances. By adding depth and classic architectural detail, it balances the overall geometry of the space and defines visual boundaries.
Manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), this capital measures 272 mm in width, 543 mm in height, and 420 mm in depth. Despite its substantial and voluminous appearance, it is remarkably lightweight, ensuring it adds no extra static load to the mounting surface or building structure. With a water absorption rate of under 1%, it is moisture-resistant. It maintains its dimensional stability in temperatures ranging from -20 °C / +70 °C, preventing structural issues like cracking, shrinking, or warping.
Drawing inspiration from Ancient Greek and Roman architecture, the design features symmetrical acanthus leaves rising from the base. Above these leaves, elegant volutes (spiral scrolls) curve outward, flanking a central floral relief. The concave abacus at the top provides a smooth transition to ceilings or beams, softening the joints. Thanks to precision molding technology, even the finest carved details are rendered with sharp, crisp lines.
Suitable for both interior and exterior projects, this pilaster capital is highly versatile, making it perfect for hotel receptions, restaurant halls, luxury residential corridors, and villa facades. It serves as an excellent solution for creating a faux column effect on flat walls or wrapping existing structural columns.
Installation is carried out on dry, smooth surfaces using Polure Polfix adhesive. For a secure and permanent hold, mechanical fastening with screws is required. Once screw holes and joints are filled with a suitable filler and sanded smooth, the capital is ready for painting. While the factory-applied primer prepares the surface for paint, an additional coat of primer before the final finish is optional, depending on the paint manufacturer's warranty terms. For outdoor applications, UV-resistant paint should be used to prevent yellowing.
Unlike traditional plaster alternatives that crack and crumble, or wood that rots when exposed to moisture, this polyurethane decorative element offers a long-lasting, maintenance-free lifespan.

Will the P5030C50 column capital be affected by rain on exterior facades?
No, our product is manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane and has a water absorption rate of under 1%. Consequently, it will not swell, rot, or crack under harsh outdoor conditions such as rain, snow, frost, or high humidity. It is completely safe for exterior use.
Which adhesive should I use for installation?
To ensure perfect adhesion and sealing during installation, only Polure Polfix adhesive should be used. Silicone or standard mounting adhesives may not bond properly with the material. In addition to the adhesive, mechanical fastening with screws is required.
Can the product be used directly in white without painting?
The product is shipped in white with a protective factory primer. However, this primer is not a substitute for a final coat of paint. To prevent the polyurethane material from yellowing outdoors and to achieve an aesthetic finish, we highly recommend painting it with water-based or synthetic paints before use.
What are its advantages compared to plaster or wood column capitals?
Unlike heavy plaster capitals, it is lightweight, easy to install, and shatterproof. Unlike wood, it does not rot, warp, or attract insects when exposed to moisture. Compared to EPS foam products, it is much harder, smoother, and offers significantly higher detail quality.
Do the dimensions of this product fit every pilaster column?
The P5030C50 model measures 272x543x420 mm. These dimensions are designed for medium to large-scale wall columns (pilasters). Before purchasing, we recommend checking that the width and depth of your vertical column shaft match the base dimensions of the capital.
