How Frame Construction And Vinyl Affect Restaurant Booth Durability? All sorts of restaurant furniture that you purchase should have durability as the bottom line as it is the indicator of the long life of every piece of furniture. Resistance to weather, water, wooden insects and hot and cold food and beverages make restaurant furniture durable and long lasting. Apart from these mentioned reasons, there are also other factors that can make a real difference to the durability of the restaurant furniture. From a manufacturer’s perspective, there are two main factors that directly or indirectly affect the durability of restaurant booths: frame construction and vinyl. First factor is the frame construction. Frame constructed from solid wood is more expensive but it doesn’t warp like plywood sometimes does. Some imported plywood use an inferior grade of glue. So, when you are stapling pieces together, small pieces will fly off. It is also not very reassuring when you have glue separating from each other. You can easily see the construction of the booth when you take the seats out and look closely at the interior frame construction. Vinyls, especially on the seat, take the most wear and tear in restaurants. The minimum double rub should start at ~50,000 double rubs. A double rub is a measure of how many rubs it takes tear the surface of the vinyl. A vinyl of lower double rub is more likely to tear or rip after extended usage. We start with a minimum of 100,000 double rubs on our booths. For chain customers, we use vinyl with up to 1.8 million double rubs, which significantly reduces the chance of any tearing. Some discount restaurant booth suppliers do not publish the amount of double rubs. Make sure you inquire before making a purchase. When it comes to choosing the right furniture for restaurant, hotel or any food outlet, durability should be remained a consideration in a world where styles change more frequently than the weather. Additionally, it will be perfectly ideal for you if you can give special focus and attention on mentioned above two factors that are genuinely crucial for the long life of furniture. Don’t forget durability is just another name of quality and it ensures that the product you are going to purchase is free from all sorts of flaws and will serve you for a long time.
