Architrave Molding & Decoration
Architrave decoration refers to the flat or stepped decorative horizontal bands that sit directly atop column capitals, acting as main horizontal beams in classical architecture. Widely used on classical facades, door and window surrounds, interior ceiling joints, and luxury entrance designs. Compared to traditional wood or marble, polyurethane architrave profiles do not warp, crack, or rot due to moisture. Thanks to their lightweight nature, they can be safely, quickly, and easily installed on high ceilings and exterior facades, offering versatile color options with their paintable surfaces. Polure offers high-density polyurethane architrave profiles crafted in adherence to classical architectural proportions, adding depth and long-lasting elegance to your designs.
