Polystyrene
mouldings have been introduced specifically to make
life easier, more varied and less expensive. The
cost of a plaster moulding to recreate an ornate
cornice or ceiling rose is so prohibitive that,
apart from heritage run homes and palaces, there
was a
risk that in the future these patterns would
be lost forever.
Porches can be created using realistic columns,
window shutters can be installed for a period look
and practical privacy. Niches can be created to
feature loved ornaments or pictures. It is now possible
for every DIY enthusiast to create realistic interpretations
of traditional cornices and decorative features
at an affordable price.
Austmes’ range of polystyrene mouldings
and features have approximately 0.2% of the mass
of concrete, making them very easy to lift and
install in a range of settings in domestic and
commercial environments.
