A range of aesthetically-pleasing column casing solutions was sought to cover up the problem of unsightly exposed building structures in internal and external locations and in a selection of sizes. Contour's in-house design team conducted a free-of-charge site survey before consulting with the client and specifying a range of hardwood and softwood column casings, in a striking white finish and which would enhance the already strong visual design of the building.
Contour's preformed plywood column encasement systems were selected for their robust and pre-finished design, facilitating an efficient and cost-effective installation. Preformed plywood column casings require minimal lifetime maintenance, even when located in high-traffic areas.

Contour Casings' plywood column casings range was flexible enough to encompass all sizes and shapes required for this project, as well as being consistent in quality of finish and appearance, a key criterion for this major development. Column casings up to 6m in height were supplied; these were constructed from sections joined together by a black feature collar.
