The P5030DP pilaster capital is a premium architectural element designed to elegantly crown vertical wall lines and recessed column designs. Suitable for both interior wall decorations and exterior facade cladding, this capital beautifully tops flat or fluted pilaster shafts with a seamless transition. Enhancing the architectural character of any building, this piece combines the timeless look of traditional stonemasonry with modern, lightweight manufacturing technology. It is highly preferred for adding depth to wall paneling, especially in classic, neoclassical, and modern-classic projects.
The product is manufactured from high-density rigid polymer (PU) with a density of 150-220 kg/m³. Offering a surface hardness close to wood, this structural foam provides high impact resistance while remaining lightweight enough to avoid adding unnecessary load to the building. It features balanced proportions with a depth of 99 mm, a width of 430 mm, and a height of 190 mm. Thanks to its closed-cell structure, its water absorption rate is extremely low, preventing swelling, cracking, or rotting in outdoor conditions and humid environments. It maintains its form.
Visually, the design features a flat stepped block at the top and an elegantly outward-curving circular profile at the bottom. This classic curved transition, combined with the thin necking band and base line below, exemplifies the finest details of neoclassical style. Its sharp lines and smooth surface quality offer precise detail definition, capturing light and shadow beautifully. The smooth surface structure ensures a flawless, uniform finish without any waviness after painting.
Offering a wide range of applications, this capital is highly favored on villa facades, column terminations around windows and doors, and indoors for fireplace mantels and living room wall partitions. It is also ideal for highlighting vertical column lines in hotel lobbies, restaurants, and prestigious office projects. Delivered factory-primed, an optional extra coat of primer can be applied in accordance with the paint manufacturers' warranty conditions, followed by water-based or synthetic paints. For exterior applications, the use of UV-resistant paints is mandatory to protect against sunlight degradation.
Compared to heavy alternatives like plaster and concrete, it stands out for its ease of installation and its ability to maintain structural integrity for many years. During installation, it is mandatory to use Polure Polfix adhesive on the cleaned surface and secure it with mechanical screws. Once screw holes and joints are filled with suitable filler and sanded, the painting process can begin. This ensures that joints are completely hidden, resulting in a seamless, unified appearance.

Is the P5030DP resistant to outdoor weather conditions?
Yes, thanks to its high-density rigid structure, dimensional stability has been tested between -20 °C and +70 °C. Since its water absorption rate is under 1%, it is resistant to rain, moisture, and frost, preventing cracking. However, it must be painted with UV-resistant paint to protect it from UV rays outdoors.
Which adhesive should be used for installing the product?
To ensure a strong and permanent bond during installation, the specialized Polure Polfix adhesive must be used. Silicone-based adhesives should be avoided as they can flex. Additionally, securing the product with mechanical screws is mandatory.
What are its advantages compared to plaster column capitals?
Include the product weight and fixing loads when assessing the substrate and supporting structure. There is a low risk of cracking or crumbling. Its details are much sharper and smoother. Furthermore, being moisture-resistant, it can be safely used in humid areas like bathrooms as well as on exterior facades.
Can the product be used directly without painting?
The product is shipped factory-primed in white, and painting is highly recommended before use. Especially for outdoor applications, using it unpainted can lead to yellowing due to sunlight exposure. Applying an extra coat of primer before painting is optional.
Which widths of pilaster column shafts is this capital compatible with?
The P5030DP model has a width of 430 mm. This dimension is designed to provide an elegant transition and crowning at the top of flat or fluted pilaster column shafts of narrower or similar widths.
