Elliptical Polyma GRP column casings measuring 800mm x 500mm and standing 2.7 metres high have been chosen for the interior of a £6.3 million Extra Care housing complex, in Boston, Lincolnshire to conceal internal structural column and rainwater harvesting pipe work.

Operated by Boston Mayflower housing association and constructed by Lovell, the new three storey, 40-bedroom development has been created for people with specialist care needs and also includes communal areas for residents and a call centre.
