Architectural Column Base
Polure architectural column bases deliver classical structural proportion and refined aesthetic anchoring for interior and exterior pillars. Manufactured from high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), these hollow decorative bases combine wood-like mechanical durability with lightweight handling for easy positioning around structural cores. Featuring a closed-cell polymer structure with water absorption under 1%, they will not rot, swell, warp, or crumble in damp environments or outdoor weather. Resistant to temperatures from -100 °C / +80 °C and rated B2 for fire safety, they arrive pre-coated with factory white acrylic technical primer. Important: Polure column bases are purely decorative and NON-LOAD-BEARING; structural loads must be supported by an internal steel post. Never pour concrete inside the hollow core. Install using continuous PU assembly adhesive and countersunk screws. Lightly sand (180-220 grit) prior to applying topcoat paint.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can a Polure architectural column base bear structural weight?
No, Polure column bases are decorative and NON-LOAD-BEARING. Structural weight must be carried by an internal steel profile; never pour concrete inside.
What material is used for architectural column bases?
They are made of high-density rigid polyurethane (150-220 kg/m³), offering wood-like durability, B2 fire rating, and high impact resistance.
Are architectural column bases suitable for outdoor facades?
Yes, with water absorption under 1% and thermal resistance from -100 °C / +80 °C, they perform reliably on exterior pillars.
How is an architectural column base installed?
It is mounted using continuous PU assembly adhesive on contact edges and secured with countersunk screws, then filled and sanded.
