Project Overview<\/h2>\n

This second Kuala Lumpur F&B project supports a Malaysian restaurant concept with a coordinated specification across upholstery and wallcovering categories. Addressing both surface categories together lets the interior hold a coherent visual scheme while meeting the distinct technical demands each category brings to a working restaurant.<\/p>\n

Goodrich Global supplied Shield Leather and wallcovering specifications across the restaurant.<\/p>\n

Goodrich Specification<\/h2>\n

Shield Leathers silicone faux leather was specified for banquette and chair upholstery, bringing 100% pure silicone surface chemistry with 200,000+ Wyzenbeek double-rub abrasion resistance, 130,000+ Martindale rubs, hydrolysis resistance under tropical humidity exposure, and bleach-cleanable surface chemistry. These attributes mean the upholstery survives the operational reality of restaurant cleaning regimes far better than conventional PU faux leather, which tends to crack, peel, or delaminate once humidity and aggressive cleaning agents begin to break down its surface.<\/p>\n

Wallcovering specifications covered the primary wall surfaces with durable, fire-compliant, easy-clean vinyl wallcovering, completing the surface specification across the restaurant interior. The wallcovering holds colour and pattern across large dining-area runs and tolerates the wiping-down routines that perimeter and service walls attract, where grease, food contact, and frequent cleaning would soon dull a domestic-grade finish. Coordinating upholstery and wallcovering from a single supplier also keeps the palette consistent across seating and walls, so the dining room reads as one resolved scheme rather than separately sourced parts.<\/p>\n

Project Outcome<\/h2>\n

The F&B Kuala Lumpur specification is in operational service. The project illustrates Goodrich’s capability to deliver coordinated F&B specifications across upholstery and wallcovering categories \u2014 Shield Leathers’ technical attributes are particularly important for tropical-climate F&B work, where hydrolysis and cleaning chemistry routinely degrade conventional faux-leather upholstery within years, forcing premature reupholstery and avoidable downtime.<\/p>\n
