StonePly Natural Stone Column Covers and Wraps
Columns are much more than just supporting posts–they are the cornerstones of some of the most incredible interior and exterior designs on Earth. StonePly can craft authentic natural stone covers for columns of all sizes to provide a truly magnificent appearance.
Options for Natural Stone Column Covers
Square or rectangular columns may all have the same basic shape, but with StonePly natural stone column covers they can be as unique as the hotel, hospital, or resort design you’ve been asked to create or improve. All of the following options are available to you when you work with StonePly:
- Thousands of stone options: We have the connections necessary to source marble, granite, travertine, onyx, and limestone from various suppliers and international locations.
- Reveal, butt, or caulked joints
- Numerous textures, including polished, honed, aged, bush hammered, and more
- Reveals at one or more locations–the top, the bottom, or multiple spots in between
Natural Stone Wraps for Beams
Often made of wood, steel, and reinforced concrete, beams can serve a structural and/or decorative function depending on their level of visibility and the material from which they are made. StonePly can fabricate natural stone cladding for structural beams that will give plain supports the extravagant appearance of natural stone. All of our stone, texture, and other design options for natural stone column wraps are also available for beam wraps.
Advantages of Natural Stone Column Covers and Wraps by StonePly
The impressive solid stone look of our natural stone column and beam wraps and the many design choices we offer all of our clients aren’t the only advantages of covers and wraps by StonePly. Some others are:
- StonePly natural stone cladding weighs a fraction of solid stone slabs: This can reduce transportation and labor costs, and results in less stress being placed on structural elements.
- Installing StonePly natural stone column covers is relatively straightforward: Cover panels are secured to a sub-framing system comprised of steel studs or aluminum angles. This system is attached to the structural column or beam. Alternatively, the natural stone panels can be directly affixed to the structural column or beam with Z clips.
- Unlike porous solid stone, StonePly column wraps have a backing that prevents water from soaking through.
- The impact strength of StonePly natural stone panels is up to 60 times greater than that of solid stone slabs, which allows for the creation of incredibly durable natural stone column covers and wraps.
