We manufacture stainless steel column cladding and column covers for architectural interiors. Circular, rectangular and custom-shaped columns can be developed according to structural dimensions, architectural profiles and surface finish requirements.
Circular, rectangular, rounded and project-specific column shapes.
Brushed, mirror, textured, perforated and decorative PVD finishes.
Panel divisions and seams can be coordinated around column dimensions and visual requirements.
Openings, trims, lighting interfaces and adjacent finishes can be considered during detailing.
Stainless steel column cladding can transform structural columns into integrated architectural elements while protecting the underlying structure and coordinating with surrounding finishes.
No. A decorative column cover is a finish around an existing column or support. It does not replace structural steel or concrete, and it should not be treated as a structural repair or a fire-rated enclosure. The project design team should verify the existing column and any required protective assembly before cladding is changed.
Yes. Xinmao develops round, square, rectangular, faceted and project-specific covers from approved dimensions or a coordinated site survey. The final profile also depends on the space needed for support, seams, services and adjacent finishes.
The finished size is the existing column plus the approved support and cladding build-up. Share the core dimensions and required clearances before design so the outer line can be checked against walkways, doors, furniture, walls and ceiling edges.
Please send plans and elevations, each column's shape and surveyed dimensions, height, quantity, intended finish, project location, substrate information, head and base conditions, access points and any fire or service restrictions. Photos and a reflected ceiling plan help identify interfaces early.
For existing buildings, a coordinated survey is recommended before final production drawings are approved. Check the column at several heights and orientations, plus its plumb, surrounding finishes and available installation clearance. The team should agree how any deviation from the drawings will be handled.
A cover can be planned around known services where there is sufficient space and the project team approves the detail. Identify valves, junction boxes, inspection points and required clearances early; selected panels may need to remain removable. Cladding must not conceal access or alter a required fire-protective assembly without approval.
Decorative covers are developed to fit around an existing column. Depending on access and geometry, the cover may be divided into sections and fixed to an approved support system. The installation sequence and fixing locations should be shown on the shop drawings.
