Save Money on Your Remodel with Decorative Beams from Volterra

June 16, 2014 - PRLog -- Wooden beams are a nice touch for almost any house because they lend a powerful, rustic yet elegant feel. If you’re remodeling, however, you’ve probably noticed that real wood is very heavy—and very expensive. This can complicate your design plans. One great option, however, is to get decorative beams made out of high-density polyurethane foam from Volterra Products. They can duplicate the look of real wood without all the disadvantages.

Faux Wood Beams

New and innovative technology combined with traditional molding techniques can create a rustic “wooden” beam out of foam. Foam might not sound like a highly durable substitute for wood, but it can actually be a great choice. Volterra’s faux beams are made out of high-density polyurethane foam, which is strong, light-weight, and sturdy. This means that it can be used both outdoors and indoors to create wooden ceilings beams or other architectural details, without the cost or maintenance of real wood.

Variety and Decoration

Faux wood beams are created with a variety of different wood grains and surface textures, ranging from rough-sawn surfaces to smooth-sanded wood grains. These beams can be stained or painted like real wood, or even come ready to install with finishes that mimic certain kinds of trees, such as Douglas fir with textures such as sand blast, Tuscany, hand-hewn or rough-sawn. They can be manufactured in almost any size and a variety of shapes, including straight mantles or arched roofing beams.

On the interior, wooden decorative beams create a comfortable warm ambiance, and on the exterior they make a bold statement. Their versatility, light weight, and low price means that foam beams from Volterra Products work where real wood won’t.
