Booth wrap
Banquette Wrap is a felt-faced wrap for restaurant and café booth backs, bringing gentle softness and practical care to busy food and hospitality interiors.
Banquette Wrap is a soft, felt-faced panel designed for the backs of fixed seating in restaurants, cafés, hotel lobbies and staff canteens. The 6 to 8 mm felt face is bound around the edge and built on a firm backing, giving each booth a gentle touch where diners lean or rest an arm. It is made for spaces where comfort, easy cleaning and a neat finish are important.
Felt wraps suit any food and beverage interior where timber or vinyl backs feel too hard or cold. The look is warm and tailored, without the stickiness or glare you sometimes get from leatherette. Our Banquette Wrap is often chosen for Cape Town cafés, Joburg bistros and boutique hotels wanting a more inviting and tactile booth.
A felt-faced banquette panel brings a gentle warmth to seating, especially handy in Highveld winters or coastal cafés open to the breeze. Felt does not get clammy, and its dense surface helps to soften clatter and calm the sound in a busy room. Unlike woven fabric, the cut edges of felt do not fray, and the surface resists pilling under everyday wear.
Felt’s surface is naturally wipe-friendly for most spills: use a cool, damp cloth for spot cleaning. In restaurants and cafés, we suggest a regular brush or vacuum to keep dust at bay. The firm backing means Banquette Wrap stays put, providing steady support for guests as they slide in or lean back.
Banquette Wrap is made to fit your booth backs, whether you run a long banquette or a run of smaller booths. The felt face is 6 to 8 mm thick, giving a firm but noticeably soft touch compared to bare timber or laminate. We recommend measuring the length and height of each booth back you want to wrap, allowing for any returns or corners.
You can choose from our full felt colour range: Sage Field, Mist Paper, Ink Edge, Soft Leaf, Stone Wash, Cloud Pale, Forest Mute, Sand Quiet, Clay Mute and Teal Soft. To see how a colour reads in your space, book a sample loan or visit our Woodstock sample library or one of our appointment showrooms. Always view swatches in the actual light of your site before making a final pick.
Installation is straightforward: Banquette Wraps can be fixed using contact adhesive or discreet fasteners, depending on the booth construction. Our team can measure and install in most parts of South Africa, or you can fit panels yourself with guidance from us. The bound edge gives each panel a finished look and helps prevent snagging during day-to-day use.
In the first few months, keep booths dry and ventilated after cleaning, especially in humid or coastal areas. Brush or vacuum felt regularly in busy food service areas to remove crumbs and dust. Wool felt’s surface will settle with use, picking up a soft patina without going shiny or sticky.
