"Stone & Timber" Products Introduced by Fypon, Ltd.
17 Jun, 2011 LDB SolutionsSynthetic millwork products designed to accent homes.
Fypon, Ltd. has introduced a new "Stone & Timber" collection of decorative products created to accent homes featuring stone, stucco and timber as major design themes. The durable pieces feature either a stone or woodgrain texture on all exposed surfaces.
The Stone & Timber product offering includes window and door trim, decorative millwork, louvers, post wraps, trellis systems, stone surround systems, stone columns and stone balustrade systems. Each piece features textures and details to resemble traditional cast concrete or timber accents. They resist moisture, insect infestations, warping, cracking and splitting, according to the company.
More than 270 "Stone & Timber" pieces are now available nationwide for interiors and exteriors of both residential and commercial projects.
"These pieces have been created to provide a lightweight, easy-to-work with product that provides the look of real cast concrete and timber without the weight of actual cast concrete or the performance problems inherent with wood," says Derek Fielding, senior product manager for Fypon. "The new textures extend our Fypon product line to assure we have a solution for every project.
Each item is made of polyurethane, which can be painted or stained to match each project's color scheme.
The new Stone textured pieces from Fypon are intended to offer the look and feel of real cast concrete architectural details, but are lighter in weight and easier to handle and install. The Fypon Stone Surround System accent pieces, for example, include arched blocks, decorative blocks, flat blocks, pot shelves, flat block sill, flat block plinths, keystone decorative blocks and flat blocks. Non-structural stone textured column kits come in both a tapered and non-tapered style. Structural stone balustrade systems include balusters, top and bottom rails, newel posts and post caps.
Each cast concrete piece has an oatmeal primer applied at the factory, so pieces may be stained or painted prior to (or after) installation.
A variety of woodgrain Timber pieces from Fypon feature the look of real wood without the maintenance, according to the company. Most pieces have a texture resembling sandblasted cedar, but a variety of items also include the look of hand-hewn beams with the Tahoe and Mesa designs. Each piece comes pre-primed.
The new Timber Trellis System from Fypon comes in a kit including outlookers reinforced with PVC, beams, lattice and hardware. The system can be installed to transform a simple single or double garage door into an architectural accent for the home. Timber shutters in the new collection are available in eight styles. Pot shelves are also available to enhance windows, along with trim pieces and other decorative accents, including knee braces, corbels and rafter tails.
