Wedding venues often combine permanent curtains with temporary fabric and plant décor. Each suitable material can be treated to its applicable standard and recorded clearly.
Hospitality and events
Separate permanent and temporary materials
Permanent curtains are normally considered under BS 5867, while artificial plants, dried flowers, upholstery covers and decorative fabrics may require different products and treatment standards.
We assess each material group rather than applying a single generic solution to the whole venue.
Hospitality and events
Suitability matters
Absorbent untreated materials are normally suitable. Waterproof coatings, outdoor water-resistant fabrics, rubber backings and non-absorbent polypropylene can prevent treatment from penetrating and are unsuitable.
Outdoor absorbent décor may be treated with a water-resistant tent product where required, although this can make fabric stiffer.
Hospitality and events
Plan treatment around events
Provide approximate quantities, dimensions, location and event timetable. Items can be treated between events or before installation, and suitable completed treatment is supported by the appropriate certificate.
