The P5060D50 Pilaster Capital is a polyurethane architectural decoration element that gives wall surfaces and column compositions a classical character. Measuring 42 x 84 x 38 cm, it creates a distinctive capital effect, particularly in entrances, living rooms and facade arrangements. The product does not carry structural loads; it is installed as a decorative covering and finishing element over an existing load-bearing surface or column.
Made from rigid polyurethane with a closed-cell structure, the product is lightweight while providing sufficient surface hardness for detailed architectural applications. Its density is 150-220 kg/m³. Thanks to its closed-cell structure, water absorption is below 1%. It offers high dimensional stability; under proper application conditions, this helps reduce shrinkage, expansion and warping. Dimensional stability has been tested between -20 °C / +70 °C; this range should not be interpreted as a service temperature or temperature-resistance rating.
The Pilaster Capital form is designed to visually complete the upper section of a vertical pilaster body. Its 42 cm width and 38 cm height make the capital clearly visible from the wall plane, while its 84 cm length suits large-scale classical compositions. Its geometric proportions allow it to be used with flat pilaster surfaces, door surrounds and column arrangements. The decorative, paintable surface can be matched to the interior colour scheme with a water-based or synthetic paint system.
It can be used on living room walls, entrance halls, around staircases, in hotel lobbies and in restaurant interiors. For exterior applications, it can be used at villa entrances, around windows and doors, along facade axes and in monumental entrance arrangements. It must not be left unpainted outdoors; a UV-resistant paint should be used. Joints and screw points should be sealed with exterior-grade filler to maintain surface continuity.
Before installation, the surface is cleaned and made dry and sound. Cuts are prepared with a 45° mitre, and the product is fixed with polyurethane (PU) mounting adhesive together with the necessary mechanical fasteners. Mechanical fixing with screws is mandatory. Joints are filled with filler, smoothed with 180-220 grit sandpaper, and then finished with primer and two coats of paint. The factory primer prepares the surface for painting; applying an additional primer is optional, and the paint manufacturer's warranty conditions should also be considered.
This polyurethane architectural decoration element is lighter and more tolerant of impact than plaster, more resistant to moisture and rot than wood, and harder and more detailed than EPS foam. Its fire class is B2 (DIN 4102-1), and it contains phosphorus-based flame retardant. With proper installation and a suitable paint system, the P5060D50 can serve as a durable, maintainable architectural finishing element.

Can the P5060D50 Pilaster Capital be used outdoors?
Yes. The P5060D50 can be used outdoors as the upper section of decorative pilasters and column compositions. It should be understood that the product is not structural and is installed as a decorative covering over an existing surface. It must not be left unpainted outdoors; UV-resistant paint should be applied. Joints and screw points should be sealed with exterior-grade filler, and the paint and filler should be maintained according to exposure conditions.
How is a pilaster capital installed and painted?
Measure the position on a clean, dry surface and prepare any required joints with a 45° mitre. Fix the P5060D50 with polyurethane (PU) mounting adhesive and screws; mechanical fixing is mandatory. Fill the joints and screw points, then smooth them with 180-220 grit sandpaper. The factory primer prepares the surface for painting, while an additional primer is optional. Finally, apply two coats of water-based or synthetic paint.
How durable and heavy is the P5060D50?
The product has a closed-cell rigid polyurethane structure with a density of 150-220 kg/m³. This makes it a lightweight decorative element compared with plaster and solid wood, while offering greater hardness than EPS foam. Water absorption is below 1%. Its dimensional stability has been tested between -20 °C / +70 °C; this does not indicate a service temperature. The product's service life depends on correct installation and the proper paint system.
What are the advantages of a polyurethane pilaster capital over plaster or wood?
A polyurethane pilaster capital is lighter than plaster and easier to handle during installation. Compared with wood, it offers greater resistance to moisture and rot. Its greater hardness than EPS foam is an advantage for decorative elements that project visibly from the surface, such as capitals. The product can also be cut, filled, sanded and painted. However, the P5060D50 is intended to complete existing surfaces decoratively, not to carry structural loads.
Can the P5060D50 be finished in different colours?
Yes. The P5060D50 has a decorative, paintable surface, and its colour is determined by the selected paint system. Water-based or synthetic paint can be applied. The factory primer helps paint adhere, but the paint manufacturer's warranty conditions should be considered. Therefore, applying an additional primer depends on the customer's preference and the instructions for the selected paint system. For exterior applications, UV-resistant paint should be chosen.
