Polyurethane Exterior Pediments
Exterior pediments are decorative triangular or arched architectural elements designed for use above doors, windows, and gables. They are widely used in classical, neoclassical, and modern facades to add an elegant finish and a grand aesthetic to entrances and window trim systems. Compared to heavy concrete, marble, or stone alternatives, polyurethane pediments are incredibly lightweight, putting no extra load on the building structure. Engineered to withstand harsh outdoor elements like rain, wind, frost, and UV rays, they will not crack, rot, or decay over time. They can be easily installed using adhesive and screws, and painted with any exterior paint. Polure manufactures high-density polyurethane pediments featuring sharp, crisp details and superior weather resistance.
