facade crown ornament

A facade crown ornament is a decorative polyurethane element that crowns the top line of a window, door or facade on a building's exterior. It is produced in pediment, frontispiece and crown profile forms, and is used to emphasise the tops of openings and the crest line of the facade. Polyurethane is lightweight and is applied with construction adhesive; it resists moisture and impact, does not crack or blister and can be painted with exterior facade paint. Being lighter than stone and plaster equivalents, it adds no extra load to the facade and installs faster. Polure casts facade crown ornaments in different sizes and forms, so the ornamental details repeat identically on every piece.
