I usually don’t like faux wood, especially beams. But these don’t look too terrible. Plus, they do have real reclaimed wood beams, so let’s talk. The first FAQ on Faux Wood Beams informs us that “Faux is a French word. It means false, artificial or simulated.” Were people actually asking them this? Plus, they have a voice over explaining everything. Makes me feel stoopid. Anyway, the faux beams are made from polyurethane, not styrofoam. They are non toxic, no formaldehyde and the manufacturing plant keeps waste in check. The reclaimed wood beams are the real deal, only they are hollowed out, so it’s purely decorative. And it’s much lighter than a solid wood beam too!

The polyurethane faux beams look better than you’d think. We get old school “I only use the real deal” guys who come by our warehouse or booth at tradeshows and they say things like, “This actually DO look real”. “Our installers would sure love this!” is another common reply. Faux wood beams come in many textures to match just about any project. http://www.owtraditions.com
