Title: Fabric used on new restaurant booths
Post by: Dhouse1062 on August 26, 2017, 06:26:40 am
 I was wondering what the fabric is that I have noticed on new restaraunt booths. It's like a vinyl but softer and comes in great patterns and textures. I'm not covering booths but would like to use it for another project. Thanks in advance for your input!

Here is a random example of some patterned vinyls suitable for restaurants:

Maybe a better explanation of what you've seen would help. A picture? There are many newer vinyls that are soft, nice patterns and suitable for commercial use.

Not sure if you folks have an 'El Pollo Loco' restaurant where you are but I noticed their vinyl and identified it as Maharam 'bitmap'

Thanks. I am checking out the link above. We don't have the restaurant listed, but we have a new Core Eatery, that's where I noticed the newest pattern. There's so many synthetics out there -something new everyday!

Thanks to all!
