Veneer, PVC foil or upholstery: which finish for which project?
All three finishes have their place. The choice is driven less by aesthetics than by traffic and the character of the space.
The veneered panel is the first choice wherever the natural grain should be visible: dining sets, boutique hotels, design collections. When the grain runs with the curve of the panel, the eye follows it cleanly once the chair is assembled.
The PVC-wrapped panel stands out where colour freedom matters. The range holds 53 colours — from walnut and oak woodgrains to solid tones — so matching a whole interior in hotel and contract furniture is straightforward. Because the foil is drawn over the panel in one piece in a membrane press, no seam is left at the edge.
Upholstered and buttoned panels are chosen where seating comfort leads. Channels and button holes are formed during pressing, so the upholsterer works on a ready base and the pattern comes out identical on every chair.
