Architectural Column Capitals
Polure architectural column capitals provide traditional structural proportion and ornamental top transitions for decorative column shafts. Manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these capitals replicate Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian order motifs while offering high impact resistance and low dead weight. Closed-cell physical properties maintain water absorption below 1%, ensuring immunity to rot, mold, and humidity damage on exterior building elevations and interior grand foyers. Rated B2 for fire resistance and stable between -100 °C / +80 °C, each capital arrives pre-coated with technical white acrylic primer. Installation is completed using continuous polyurethane assembly adhesive and countersunk screws.
Frequently Asked Questions
What material is used to produce architectural column capitals?
They are manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), ensuring wood-like impact toughness and light weight.
Are architectural column capitals suitable for outdoor facades?
Yes, water absorption under 1% and thermal stability from -100 °C / +80 °C make them completely weatherproof.
Can architectural column capitals hold load-bearing weight?
No, Polure column capitals are decorative and non-load-bearing. Load-bearing column structures require an internal steel support.
How are architectural column capitals installed?
Mounting requires applying polyurethane assembly adhesive to contact joints and securing with mechanical screws.
