Molded Ceiling Plate
Polure molded ceiling plates deliver high-relief ornamental framing and architectural polish around chandeliers and central ceiling lighting. Formed from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these molded plates provide the deep sculpted texture of traditional plasterwork combined with wood-like durability and effortless lightweight handling. The closed-cell polymer structure maintains water absorption under 1%, preventing rotting, swelling, warping, or mold growth in humid interiors or covered exterior soffits. Engineered to withstand temperature extremes from -100 °C / +80 °C and rated Class B2 fire-retardant, the ceiling plate preserves its geometry over decades. Each plate comes factory primed with a white acrylic coating. Installation requires clean surface preparation, applying a continuous bead of polyurethane assembly adhesive on rear surfaces, securing with mechanical screws into joists, filling fastener recesses with acrylic spackle, sanding smooth with 180-220 grit paper, and finishing with two coats of paint.
Frequently Asked Questions
What density material is used in Polure molded ceiling plates?
Polure molded ceiling plates are crafted from rigid high-density polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), ensuring strong structural durability.
Is a molded ceiling plate resistant to moisture and humidity?
Yes, with water absorption below 1%, closed-cell polyurethane will not rot, warp, or mold in humid bathrooms or kitchens.
How is a molded ceiling plate installed properly?
Clean the surface, apply continuous polyurethane assembly adhesive, fix with mechanical screws, fill countersunk holes with acrylic putty, sand with 180-220 grit, and topcoat.
Can silicone adhesive be used to mount a molded ceiling plate?
No, silicone adhesive is strictly prohibited because it lacks holding capacity. Always use polyurethane assembly adhesive combined with screws.
What paint finish is recommended for a molded ceiling plate?
Lightly sand the factory white acrylic primer with 180-220 grit paper, then apply two coats of water-based or synthetic paint.
