Homeowners generally find traditional stiff moulding to be the easiest and most straightforward type of trim to install. It can be used for most straight edges, including the joints of walls and ceilings, baseboard separators, and window trim. However, there are several places in the home that are excellent candidates for moulding, but do not have straight edges or surfaces. For these applications, flexible trim moulding is an excellent solution. Volterra Flex™ is a bendable resin moulding that is sturdy enough to maintain straight lines, but flexible enough to fit any curves in your home.

Flex Trim Composition

Volterra Flex™ is made of a urethane composite material designed for both strength and flexibility. In all but very tight radius applications, trim made of this material can be installed without pre-curving. If you’re looking for flexible moulding that is lightweight, simple to install and easy to clean, Volterra Flex™ is the right product for you. It can also be painted or stained to match nearly any hardwood moulding profile and will integrate seamlessly with existing natural moulding and millwork in your home.

Benefits of Volterra Flex™

Flexible trim moulding from Volterra offers many advantages over traditional hardwood moulding. In addition to having unlimited applications for curved surfaces in your home, it also offers the following benefits:

• It can be used for interior or exterior applications
• It won’t absorb moisture when used with a paint or gel stain and sealant
• It can be cut just like real wood
• It is easy to install
• It is easy to clean
• It can be stained or painted to match any hardwood moulding
• It won’t split or crack when exposed to extreme temperatures

Applications

Volterra Flex™ moulding can be applied on nearly any curved surface inside or outside your home. The most common applications Include:

• Door and Window Arches: Many homeowners feel that the most dramatic use of trim is along architectural arches. For these applications, designers can choose from flex brick mold, flex back band, and other styles.
• Curved Stairwells and Curved Walls: Another dramatic use of flex trim moulding is for curved stairwells, curved walls, round columns, curved shelves, and boxes on curved walls. For these areas, homeowners can choose flex base cap, flex base shoe, flex chair rail, or other styles of moulding.
