Pole-Wrap Launches Two New Products to Enhance a Home’s Beauty

Monday, October 5th, 2009

 After years of success with the Pole-Wrap, a product that transforms unsightly basement poles into attractive interior decor, Pole-Wrap, Inc. has added two new products – the Pole-Wrap Drink Shelf and the Pole-Wrap Extension. Both items will be available for purchase after July 1.

“After having a positive experience with Pole-Wrap, we decided it was time to roll out some additional products,” Laurie Coleman, president Pole-Wrap, says. “We are excited to bring more options to homeowners with finished basements who are seeking to beautify basement poles.”

Pole-Wrap is an alternative to boxing in basement poles. It takes up less space and saves significant construction time. It simply conforms to the shape of the structural support column.

The Drink Shelf is a new option for Pole-Wrap. So, not only is the pole now visually attractive, it’s also functional. It’s easy to assemble and to install and only requires a name-brand construction adhesive. Zip-ties are included to hold everything in place while the adhesive dries. The Drink Shelf is installed over Pole-Wrap and can be set to desired height – 36 inches for table height; 42 inches for bar height.

The Pole-Wrap Extension is designed for high-ceiling basements (up to 12 feet). It’s a four-foot version of the regular eight-foot Pole-Wrap that is cut and added on below the Drink Shelf. It’s also available in three different widths.

“The Cap and Base set is optional,” Coleman says, “but most customers choose it because it adds a finished appearance that mimics a classic-fluted column.”

Both items are available in premium red oak or medium-density fiberboard for easy paint finishing. Cap & Base sets are available to match.

About Pole-Wrap

Pole-Wrap is a 15-year old company founded by Laurie Coleman. She was inspired to launch the company after her husband finished their basement and she learned that there were no products available to hide the unsightly basement poles. Since then, the company’s distribution has grown significantly and the Pole-Wrap is now carried in major home improvement stores such as Lowe’s and The Home Depot throughout the U.S.
