Modern designers and homeowners are increasingly paying attention to polyurethane decorative corners. These items combine the beauty of classical carving with the practicality of innovative materials. One of the most popular representatives of this category is NPU-298R, which harmoniously combines functionality and aesthetic appeal.

1. What is NPU-298R Molded Decoration?

NPU-298R Molded Decoration is a carved applique (or corner piece), made from high-quality polyurethane, designed to decorate furniture, doors, walls, and other interior elements. Its main distinguishing features:

• Shape: the item resembles an ornate corner, executed in the style of classical wood carving.

• Dimensions: 171×80×10 mm. These dimensions make NPU-298R a universal solution, suitable for both large surfaces (door panels, cabinets) and more delicate elements (mirror frames, paintings, wall panels).

• Material: dense polyurethane, providing the item with strength, lightness, and durability.

The main advantage of NPU-298R is the ability to quickly and at low cost change the appearance of a room. Thanks to its shape and ornament, the applique can give the interior elegance and sophistication characteristic of palace or classical styles, but when properly used, it fits into modern interiors, creating a light eclectic effect.

2. Lightness. Polyurethane items are much lighter than plaster or wooden analogs. This simplifies the installation process and does not require reinforced fasteners.

3. Durability. Polyurethane retains its original appearance for decades, does not yellow, dry out, or break.

4. Ease of installation. Mounting with adhesive allows avoiding complex work and expensive master services.

5. Cost polyurethane corners are often lower than those of carved wooden elements or plaster moldings, while quality and appearance are not inferior, and in many ways even surpass traditional materials.

• Dimensions: 171 mm (width) × 80 mm (height) × 10 mm (depth).

• Style: Classic ornament with smooth scrolls reminiscent of vegetal motifs (acanthus leaves, scrolls).

• Application: internal and partially external (under certain processing and painting conditions).

• Functionality: the corner can be used to decorate furniture corners, doors, mirror frames, niches, cornices, etc.

4. Where and how to use NPU-298R decorative molding?

4.1. Furniture

• Cabinets and chests: the overlay can be placed in the upper corners of the facade or along the sides, creating an illusion of wood carving.
