What is Flexible Molding?
Flexible molding allows you to add trim to window arches, curved walls, and other specialized applications. Unlike fairly inflexible wood molding, flexible molding is made from a polymer resin that can bend without splintering or weakening. At last, architects and interior designers can take advantage of this unique building product to create curves that seamlessly integrate with other millwork. The composite polymer or polyester resin provides the ideal material for flexible molding. It has been engineered so that it easily flexes or curves in either direction to fit around countless challenging shapes. For softer bends, a do-it-yourselfer can measure the radius to fit. Sometimes, for sharper curves, the manufacturer will pre-bend your selected pieces. People use this molding around arched doorways, windows, or entry places, and along walls that gently curve, such as a circular stairwell or tower. Of course, this new material opens the door for more creative applications, such as crea
