Its custom design elements which are either merely decorative or functional in nature could be used in areas such as:-

All these could be supplied with a smooth surface where joints are wither taped or plastered either smooth or simply expressed where required. However, texture surfaces are also available on request. These are then ready to receive surface coatings, which could be a simple coat of matt emulsion paint, textured coatings or even decorative paints and gliding works by artists.


Our Strength

Our Experience - with more than 30 years of knowledge and a team of dedicated staff, specially catering to Custom Designed Architectural GRG and GRC at our Canada facility, we pride ourselves in staying ahead of the competition with our continuous Research and Development works.

Molding Technology - the use of CAD and CAM in the development of our master and working molds ensures that precision in obtained and tolerance kept to a minimum. Complicated geometric designs necessitating pattern repeats could be developed alongside linear moldings with ease.

Comprehensive Shop Drawings - all parts are made based on detail drawings furnished as part of our scope of works. Drawing indicate each part detail with full dimensions and often, information on quantities, reinforcement type and location, hanger and supporting points and information on our work scope.

Job Reference - with a whole list of completed projects around the world and a good following of Architectural and Interior Design Consultants and Contractors, this would bear testimony to the many accomplishments that we have achieved through the years.
