What is a Styrofoam veneer?
A molding is the finish between the end of the wall and the ceiling, creating a frame and decorating the room with unique designs and details. You may be used to seeing plaster moldings around, but today Styrofoam has become an interesting possibility for decoration.
Advantages of the Styrofoam Frame
- Installation cost: The Styrofoam veneer does not need to be installed by skilled labor. If you are willing, you can learn from tutorials and install it yourself, as it is a simple, quick and easy process.
- It doesn't spoil easily: Unlike other materials that can mold, the proliferation of bacteria on Styrofoam does not happen, and can be used even in more humid environments such as bathrooms.
- It can be customized: We know that Styrofoam is a white material, but it is also very easy to be painted. If you do not want to dirty the ceiling or the wall, you can paint the Styrofoam before installing it.
- Material itself: Styrofoam is a light material and this is one of the biggest advantages of the frame made with it, the result of the finishing also brings a lightness to the environment, besides being easy to transport.
Disadvantages of the Styrofoam frame
- It requires care: also because it is light, the Styrofoam needs to be installed in places where there is no chance of anything forcing the finish, which may change its shape completely.
- Material cost: even with a reduced cost at the time of installation, Styrofoam is usually a little more expensive than plaster. the average price of the Styrofoam sconce is R$ 4 per meter, for the simplest models.
- It does not support weights: if the idea is to make moldings for lighting, the Styrofoam material is not the most suitable, because it does not support heavy weights.
Despite some disadvantages, the Styrofoam sconce is the darling of the moment, much because it can be installed in a more practical way, lowering the cost and bringing an even more personal air to the rooms.
