Decorative Column Capitals
Polure decorative column capitals provide sophisticated architectural detailing for interior and exterior pillars, transforming simple structural supports into regal accents. Crafted from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these ornamental capitals deliver wood-like durability and crisp motif relief without adding heavy weight to the building envelope. The closed-cell material prevents water penetration with absorption below 1%, ensuring immunity against mold, swelling, and decay in moist or exterior environments. Rated B2 for fire safety and stable between -100 °C / +80 °C, each piece comes factory-primed with white acrylic coating. Recommended installation requires applying continuous polyurethane assembly adhesive on all contact surfaces along with mechanical countersunk screws.
Frequently Asked Questions
What density is used for decorative column capitals?
Polure decorative column capitals are made from rigid polyurethane with a high density of 150-220 kg/m³ (production target ~160 kg/m³), providing superior impact strength.
Are decorative column capitals weather resistant for facades?
Yes. With water absorption under 1% and thermal resistance from -100 °C / +80 °C, they withstand harsh outdoor weather when coated with UV facade paint.
Do decorative column capitals require mechanical fastening?
Yes. A dual fastening system combining continuous polyurethane assembly adhesive with countersunk screws is required for proper mechanical stability.
Are decorative column capitals load-bearing structural members?
No, they are non-load-bearing decorative elements. Structural loads must be carried by an internal steel column core.
