Two factories using nominally the same density can produce wildly different impact resistance, screw-hold, and paint adhesion depending on which polyol blend they run.

The single most common complaint about Ceiling Medallions B2B from first-time buyers is yellowing under halogen heat. It is not a defect of the product category — it is a defect of the brief. Factories with mature ceiling medallion programmes build guardrails into their standard offering precisely because they have seen these failures before.
