High performing fabrics that work

People come to Plettenberg Bay searching for a unique, exclusive experience, and the Beacon Island Resort had to take this into account while also considering the high traffic that their rooms and public interior areas would go through every year.

There was a clear need for high performing products when refurbishing rooms and suites at the resort, which is why the fabrics chosen to fit the bill were FibreGuard.

Creating modern, stylish interiors

For the refurbishment of 200 rooms, the Beacon Island Resort went for a modern, no-nonsense feel.

In many of the rooms, carefully-chosen fabrics in colours such as green, red and streamlined neutrals create the perfect balance to ensure that their guests would wake up energised and ready for another day, no matter what it holds.

Durable upholstery, designed for life

These upholstery fabrics had to meet specific requirements to offer ease of cleaning and durability to manage such a high level of traffic.

FibreGuard fabrics are thoroughly tested in independent laboratories to ensure that they pass even the most difficult of textile tests. That’s why our fabrics can be used in so many different ways and locations and still stay free from harmful finishes.
