Chandelier Backplate
Polure chandelier backplates provide an architectural centerpiece and structural backing for hanging light fixtures and chandeliers. Manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these backing plates boast high mechanical strength and impact resistance while remaining light enough to install overhead safely. The material is impervious to moisture with water absorption under 1%, ensuring long-term dimensional stability without warping or cracking. Pre-primed at the factory with a white acrylic technical primer, each plate accepts any topcoat paint including acrylics and enamels. Mounting requires applying a continuous bead of heavy-duty polyurethane assembly adhesive on the mounting surface, complemented by mechanical screw anchoring into ceiling joists or anchors.
