Classic Facade Column
Polure classic facade columns bring stately Greco-Roman architectural grandeur to building entrances, porticos, and grand verandas. Manufactured from rigid high-density polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these decorative columns are hollow, non-load-bearing architectural elements that enclose internal structural steel profiles without adding heavy structural loads. Their closed-cell polymer structure ensures water absorption under 1%, providing total resistance to rain, frost, rot, and insects in temperatures ranging from -100 °C / +80 °C. Available in standard diameters (20/30/40/50/60/80 cm) and 240 cm height with Doric, Ionic, or Corinthian capitals, they come factory-primed with white acrylic primer. Installation requires mounting over steel core posts—never pour concrete inside—using polyurethane assembly adhesive on joints and mechanical screws. Sand seams with 180-220 grit paper and paint with two coats of UV-resistant exterior facade paint.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Polure classic facade columns load-bearing?
No, Polure classic facade columns are decorative and non-load-bearing. An internal steel profile must be used for structural load support.
Can concrete be poured inside a classic facade column?
No, concrete must NEVER be poured inside polyurethane column shells as curing thermal expansion will rupture the casing.
What standard diameters and heights are available for facade columns?
Standard column diameters are 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 80 cm, with a standard height of 240 cm.
What adhesive should be used when assembling facade column parts?
Polyurethane assembly adhesive must be applied along all joint edges and contact surfaces. Silicone is strictly forbidden.
What paint is required for classic facade columns installed outdoors?
Outdoor installations must be coated with elastic, UV-resistant exterior facade paint to prevent yellowing under sun exposure.
