UK Boxings’ column casings range is designed to conceal structural steel or concrete supports by providing specifiers with a choice materials and finish options to help improve project aesthetics.
Bespoke manufactured to meet project specification, our range incorporates circular and square casings, which are manufactured from UKTR compliant MDF and plywood, respectively, together with aluminium and glass reinforced plastic (GRP) options, plus glass reinforced gypsum (GRG).
While the MDF, plywood and GRG casings are designed for use only on interior applications, both aluminium and GRP can be specified on both interior and exterior projects, as they are inherently corrosion and weather resistant.
An wide choice of finishes is available, including PPC coatings in BS and RAL colours, as well as textured and embossed surfaces for the metal products, while BS and RAL colour gel-coats can also be specified for GRP column casings, while both types are manufactured to the specific project dimensions to ensure a high standard of fit and finish on site.
For the MDF and plywood casings, durable high pressure laminate (HPL) finishing materials can be specified, while both types are also available with an unfinished, plain surface for decoration on-site if required.
GRG casings are also usually supplied unfinished for on-site decoration, and as they are produced using moulds, they can be manufactured to meet any individual project requirements or dimensions.
The choice of finish for all column casings in the UK Boxings range will be partly dependent on the casings’ location and the material selected, which must be considered when specifying and ordering.
