Restaurant Furniture Blog

Bar furniture probably gets a better workout than normal restaurant furniture so it is wise to consider materials that may help to extend the life of that piece of bar furniture. Vinyl is one of those materials that does seem to last a long time.

Vinyl has been a popular choice of fabric for furniture in general for many decades. One of the major reasons is that it is long wearing. If you look at the features of vinyl you may conclude that it is the only fabric suited to the conditions of a bar. These features include:

Scratch resistant - Vinyl is a tough material that will handle most knocks and scratches. You will find that vinyl is hard to puncture, unlike some materials that have holes appearing fairly quickly.

Water resistant - Vinyl is water resistant which means that spilled drinks not only run off the fabric, but the fabric itself is easy to wash and keep clean.

Stain resistant - Whilst vinyl might be water resistant, it is also fairly stain resistant. If kept clean, stains will not appear. Obviously, anything that is spilled and left may cause a slight staining.

Vinyl is an ideal choice of fabric in areas that receive a lot of traffic, require frequent wiping down, and are subject to spills. Whilst the pictured bar stool is only available in black, there are other bar stools in a variety of colors and styles to choose from.
