Hospitality
Grand Copthorne Waterfront, Singapore
Project Overview
The Grand Copthorne Waterfront is one of Singapore’s established hospitality assets, with continuous demand for ballroom, conference, and public-area refurbishment that upholds the property’s brand standard while servicing a very-high-traffic event calendar. The Goodrich Global engagement spanned multiple specification categories, wallcovering, flooring, hand-tufted carpet, and fabric, across the property’s public and event areas.
Goodrich Specification
The wallcovering programme combined Widewall vinyl wallcovering on circulation walls, where its durable, fire-retardant, low-VOC, antimicrobial construction withstands trolleys and constant passage, with digital print wallcovering on signature walls where the design language called for custom imagery. Vinyl flooring was specified in transition zones requiring water resistance and easy maintenance.
Hand-tufted broadloom carpet was specified for the principal ballroom, its dense, bespoke pile delivering acoustic absorption and a luxurious underfoot quality, with axminster in the adjacent corridors and pre-function zones, the standard hybrid carpet specification for hospitality public areas at this scale. The axminster weave conceals soiling along the heaviest traffic routes while the hand-tufted ballroom carpet carries custom motif that anchors the room’s identity.
Fabric specification covered drapery, banquette upholstery, and accent fabrics, all carrying contract-grade abrasion ratings and fire compliance appropriate to public-assembly use, with finishes chosen to withstand the cleaning cycles a working event venue imposes.
Project Outcome
The Grand Copthorne specification is in operational service across the property. The project demonstrates Goodrich’s capability to coordinate the full surface palette, wallcovering, flooring, carpet, and fabric, through a single supply-and-installation chain, and to support the property’s ongoing refurbishment programme as components reach their respective service-life endpoints.
