Ionic Pillar Capital
Polure Ionic pillar capitals crowned decorative columns with classical spiral volutes and refined egg-and-dart moldings. Molded from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these hollow decorative capitals fit round or half-wall (pilaster) column shafts without adding structural floor weight. Non-load-bearing by design (internal steel profiles are required for structural loads; NEVER pour concrete inside). Their closed-cell structure (<1% water absorption) guarantees complete rot and moisture resistance in interior portals or exterior porticos. Supplied factory pre-primed in white acrylic. Installed using PU assembly adhesive and countersunk screws.
