WOODBRIDGE, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Royal® Building Products, a Westlake company, continues its commitment to quality and innovation in the exterior building products category with the introduction of its Conceal™ Column Wraps at the 2018 International Builders’ Show. Celect® Cellular Composite Siding by Royal®, the premier siding and trim solution, as well as Zuri™ Premium Decking, will be on display.

PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENTS
Royal introduces Conceal Column Wraps as part of its Conceal Trim System. These 100% cellular PVC column wraps feature a unique “clam shell” design with three pre-assembled sides that surround the existing post for a seamless appearance. The fourth side is applied to enclose the entire column.
Backed by a Limited 25-year warranty, Royal’s Conceal Column Wraps are available in four widths to fit around 4x4, 6x6, 8x8 and 12x12 structural posts, and two standard lengths – 8’6” and 10’. The capitals and bases are also pre-assembled and come in three distinctive design series: Traditional, Craftsman and Builder. To ensure the columns are protected during the installation process, they are wrapped in a protective film that can later be removed.
Additional new Royal trim and mouldings’ products include:
- Nickle Gap Shiplap offers interior old world charm with the technology of cellular PVC to reduce moisture concerns. Its shadow lines provide a nailing flange to create a finished look without showcasing exposed fasteners.
- The Conceal Stone Water Table is 100% cellular PVC and is a decorative solution when transitioning from stone to siding. The slope provides the projection required to shed water away from the stone.
