What Makes A Quality Restaurant Menu Cafe Cover?
One of the most popular menu covers is a clear vinyl cover with binding stitched around the edge and metal corners, known as the Café Cover. There are two basic ingredients to making quality menu covers; the manufacturing processes or construction of the menu cover and the materials used. Knowledge and experience tell a manufacturer which materials and processes will produce the best and most durable covers. This article will discuss the various materials and processes used in manufacturing, as well as their advantages and disadvantages to explain what makes a quality restaurant menu Café Cover.
The quality and durability of the Café Cover will be reflected in the price as the materials used will play an important role. The clear vinyl must be flexible enough not to crack and the formulation must be such that it will not yellow or lift laser or ink jet printing. Also important is the gauge of the vinyl, in other words the thickness, which will add to the quality and life of the menu cover. Clear vinyl is also used in other styles of menu covers, such as leatherette or faux leather covers, in the form of clear pockets for other hard, leather or leatherette menu covers.
Another important issue often overlooked is the quality of the thread used in any type of sewn menu cover. Inexpensive and most imported menu covers use cotton thread, which in time disintegrates. This disintegration is increased by cleaning chemicals and moisture and is one of the main causes of the thread to unravel. Top quality nylon thread, which costs a few cents more per cover, will last for many years. Some companies will tout double stitching of their Café Covers however, more is not always better. Double stitching puts more holes in the vinyl compromising its’ integrity. Greater durability can be achieved by using quality materials sewn with lock stitching and care taken while applying good quality metal corners.
Café Cover binding materials can be nylon, a strong and durable material which is the reason it is used for outdoor equipment and parachutes, or a vinyl coated fabric called supported vinyl. Supported vinyl is strengthened by the fibers of the fabric backing to resist splitting and cracking. Again, the formulation of the vinyl or plastic should contain enough plasticizer to make it soft and flexible enough not split or crack from the bending and folding of menu covers. Both are equally durable materials for menu covers.
In conclusion; strong durable materials along with the right manufacturing processes creates the best quality Café Covers which can be found at http://www.menus-plus.com. As with most anything the old saying applies, you get what you pay for, therefore quality covers will cost a bit more. However, they are more durable, will out last inexpensive covers made with lesser quality materials making quality covers a much better and cost effective investment.
