Tips for Enhancing the Home
Trellis Systems at IBS!
01 week ago
All the excitement this week is in Orlando, the location of the 2012 International Builders’ Show. Thousands of builders and building industry professionals are here viewing the newest products in the marketplace.
Not surprisingly, we’ve seen a great deal of foot traffic in our booth (W2571) to inspect the new Fypon PVC Trellis System. Available in two sizes to accommodate either single- or double-car garages, each trellis system kit can also be fabricated to use in alternative settings, such as over home entryways, garden sheds and free-standing garages.
A Fypon PVC Trellis System comes as a complete kit including outlookers reinforced with PVC for durability, attractive beams, lattice and hardware. The PVC pieces come in smooth white that are easy to put together in just a few hours to create an accent trellis for over a garage or home entryway.
The trellis system adds architectural distinction to any home while resisting rotting, decaying, warping, splintering, mildew growth and insect infestation. The low-maintenance PVC pieces may remain white or can be painted or stained to complement the overall style of the home. If you’re here in Orlando, stop by to visit with us in booth W2571 … and if you’re not here, call Fypon at 800-446-3040 and ask for details on this decorative new home accent.

Columns and Column Wrap Kits at IBS!
01 month ago
If you’re searching for ways to add columns to a project without breaking your budget, Fypon can help. Visit booth W2571 during IBS in February to see an assortment of the company’s decorative structural columns and fast-installation column wraps.
Structural columns from Fypon have steel-reinforced interiors and high-density urethane exteriors. Available in four styles (Plain Panel, Fluted, Serpentine and Flat) the structural columns can sustain up to 12,000 pounds of weight, yet are lightweight in comparison to fiberglass columns.
The strength of the Fypon structural columns is surpassed only by their classic beauty. Caps and bases are offered to enhance the columns, which can be used on both the interior and exterior of a home. These columns come with two coats of primer, ready for a finish coat of paint.
If you’re looking to hide an unattractive existing column, you need to check out Fypon’s two-piece, Semi-Assembled Column Wrap Kits at IBS. These wraps install in less than 15 minutes with a free-floating movement around a wood or steel post. Since the PVC column wrap doesn’t touch the support post (which is usually pressure treated lumber), if the post twists over time, the shape of the wrap will not be affected.
Styles in the award-winning Semi-Assembled Column Wrap product line include Raised Panel, Fluted, Tapered, Non-Tapered and Craftsman. The decorative column wraps do not require a carpenter to install and provide a unique look to both interior and exterior column wrap projects.
As with all Fypon products, the structural columns and column wrap kits are crafted from tough, weather-proof, high-performance materials. The pieces are impervious to decay, insect infestation and water damage for long-lasting beauty and low maintenance. For more details, visit http://fypon.com/products/quickwrap/.
