Acanthus Leaf Moulding
Polure acanthus leaf mouldings deliver classical Mediterranean architectural ornamentation for wall transitions, ceiling borders, and door surrounds. Manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these intricately carved trim profiles possess wood-like mechanical durability while remaining light enough for easy single-person mounting. The closed-cell structure maintains water absorption strictly below 1%, making the moulding immune to swelling, rot, or mold growth even in humid dining rooms, kitchens, or porticos. Capable of operating safely between -100 °C / +80 °C without shrinking or warping, the moulding carries a B2 fire safety rating and arrives pre-primed in factory white acrylic primer. Installation is completed using continuous PU assembly adhesive on back edges combined with mechanical countersunk screws. Screw holes and miter seams are filled with acrylic filler, sanded smooth, and finished with topcoat paint.
Frequently Asked Questions
What material is Polure acanthus leaf moulding made from?
It is crafted from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), providing wood-like mechanical strength, light weight, and a B2 fire rating.
Can acanthus leaf moulding be installed in high-humidity areas?
Yes. With a water absorption rate under 1%, the closed-cell material will not rot, warp, swell, or cultivate mold.
How is acanthus leaf moulding installed?
Mounting requires continuous PU assembly adhesive on contact edges reinforced by countersunk screws, followed by seam filling, sanding, and painting.
Does acanthus leaf moulding require special priming before painting?
No, it arrives pre-primed with white acrylic primer. Only a light sanding with 180-220 grit paper is needed before applying topcoat paint.
