Childproofing Your Furnishings

“Something I regret not doing from the start with my furniture and rugs was getting Premium Surface Protection to treat the upholstery. I had this done on my couch earlier this year and it honestly blows me away how much it protects the fabric, especially with kids.”

Elevating Luxury Living at The Residences

Elevating Luxury Living at The Residences

“The aim was to create a luxurious living experience by transforming the interiors with high-end furniture and lighting from renowned European manufacturers.”

Nestled in the heart of Auckland’s bustling downtown, The Residences, formerly known as the Stamford Residences, have undergone a breathtaking metamorphosis in the year 2022. Envisioned by the celebrated architects at Peddle Thorp, this majestic 23-story glass tower now stands as an unrivaled testament to opulence and sophistication. Comprising 149 premium freehold apartments, including an exclusive upper echelon graced by the esteemed JW Marriott Hotel, The Residences have, indeed, become an enduring emblem of luxury living.

At the helm of this transformation stands the illustrious Sarsfield Brooke.

Established in 1998, Sarsfield Brooke Ltd stands as a pioneering importer and wholesaler of furniture, lighting, and artwork, catering to discerning design professionals within New Zealand. For this ambitious project, they assumed the role of design visionaries, curating a space where form, function, and beauty harmoniously converge.

As any connoisseur of luxury knows, it’s an investment to look truly amazing, and it’s only right that such an impression should last. Sarsfield Brooke understood this implicitly, their mission was clear: to protect and enhance the allure of this prestigious address, valuing the essence of rebranding and refurbishing with the finest European furniture. Each piece, sourced from distinguished European manufacturers like Giulio Marelli, Antonangeli, Bullfrog, Midj, and Reflex, was chosen not just for its immediate aesthetic impact, but for its enduring quality.

Sarsfield Brooke’s partnership with Premium Surface Protection, is not just about a shield against wear and tear; it’s a testament to their commitment to preserving the longevity of luxury.

The why: ensuring that the first impression of opulence that greets residents and guests in the lobby persists, day after day, year after year. Every hallway, every corner, tells a story through art and design, a story that deserves to be preserved for future generations.

Even the elevator landings, usually mere transitory spaces, have been transformed into artful niches, designed to elevate the everyday. Each piece of carefully curated artwork is not just a visual delight; it’s a statement of lasting elegance.

At The Residences, it’s not just about the ‘what’ of luxury living; it’s about the ‘why.’ Valuing rebranding and refurbishing with high-end furniture from European manufacturers is about making an investment that stands the test of time.

It’s about recognising that it costs to look amazing, and taking steps to ensure that the impression lasts, long after the first glance.

This thoughtful choice speaks to Bozic’s commitment to quality and longevity.

Sustainability of Commercial Fibre Protection Products

by Vivienne Grimston | Jul 11, 2023 | Case Studies

What are the financial and environmental sustainability benefits associated with protecting fabric and carpet in a commercial setting?

In light of the escalating expenses associated with clean water, cleaning chemicals, labor, and the disposal of excessive wastewater, our investigation focused on evaluating the potential of Fiber ProTector treatment for all furnishings. Our goal was to determine if this approach could effectively mitigate these costs and establish sustainability within the market for cleaning commercial and residential interior textiles.

THE CHALLENGE

Our objective was to promote sustainability in the commercial and residential interior textile cleaning industry by minimizing the usage of clean water, cleaning chemicals, labor costs, and the release of detergent-laden excessive wastewater into drainage systems and the environment. We aimed to achieve this by treating these textiles with the eco-friendly Fiber ProTector, a protective solution designed for fabrics, rugs, carpets, leather, and other textiles.

Our research focused on evaluating the effectiveness of using a system like Fiber ProTector in demanding, high-traffic environments. We sought to determine if its efficacy in such settings would translate to equally impressive results in the residential market, particularly for high-end textile products.

The cleanliness of soft furnishings and floor coverings, including rugs and carpets, significantly impacts the satisfaction, health, and comfort of occupants. Maintaining a pristine and stain-free appearance for interior and outdoor furnishings is of utmost importance to homeowners and commercial property owners, but it often requires considerable time and expense.

THE SOLUTION

Fiber ProTector conducted a comprehensive test program to showcase the efficacy of their fabric and rug protector on a commercial carpet located in high-traffic areas. The specific test site chosen was a 10-meter-wide corridor within a large educational facility, where approximately 10,000 individuals walked daily.

TEST PROCEDURE:

carpets vacuumed and evaluated daily
cleaning performed when carpets reached a degree of soiling indicated by a predetermined grey scale
cleaning and re-treatment with Fiber ProTector performed by trained staff, using the hot water extraction process.

Each evaluation consisted of a set of three samples, untreated carpet, carpet only initially treated with Fiber ProTector and carpet treated initially with Fiber ProTector then retreated following each cleaning cycle.

THE RESULT

The summary from the Report Data is:

✔ The time period between cleaning cycles is increased by 2.5 times for initially treated sample areas and an amazing 6 times longer for sample areas treated after each cleaning cycle compared to untreated sample areas!

✔ 30 to 75% reduction in total cleaning needs for treated carpets over the test period

✔ 70 to 88% reduction in total cleaning needs for repeatedly treated sample areas over the test period

This means not only does the carpet maintain a clean appearance for a longer period, but also overall cleaning costs can be reduced appreciably – up to 88%!

You can use this Calculator Example to see an actual cost saving example in a Hotel environment, through the massive reduction in water chemical and labour costs and the reduced down time of a facility. The cost benefit of treating textiles, either furnishings or floor coverings with Fiber ProTector is amazing!

Fiber ProTector is the most effective and environmentally friendly fabric protection in the world!

How to Add an Extra Layer of Comfort Around the Fire

by Vivienne Grimston | Jun 13, 2023 | Architecture planning, fabric protection, Fire protection, Fire retardant, furnishing protection, Interior Design, Leather Protection, Rug protection

Add an Extra Layer of Comfort Around the Fire

What could be more inviting than a roaring fire?

The sheer presence of a fireplace in any home, holiday house, restaurant or hotel instantly evokes visions of lively gatherings, deep fire-side chats and snug evenings — even before a log’s lit.

The styling around these mesmerising centrepieces brings these vivid moments to life with enticing soft furnishings, rugs and accessories.

Yet, the ultimate fireside comfort is one you can’t see.

The comfort of knowing furnishings are protected with a fire-retardant.

Fire retardants, such as Fire Defender, protect furnishings, people and premises from fire. They also ensure that fabrics meet the New Zealand Building Compliance standard, especially important for commercial properties, rentals, AirBNBs and theatres.

How does it work?
Fire Defender is applied as a liquid solution that dries to form a protective layer. This barrier absorbs heat and releases water vapour, reducing flammability to help to stop the fire in its tracks. While also reducing smoke density.

See how these two rooms dramatically compare, one protected with Fire Defender, and one without, in this short video.

What’s it used for?
Fire Defender can be professionally applied by the Premium Surface Protection Team, to any absorbent textiles including, curtains, lounges, rugs, carpets, cushions, blankets and throws, as well as books and timber. Once dry, the solution ensures the protected items are less likely to ignite, reducing the risk of fire damage while slowing down the spread of the fire.

Where is it used?
Fire retardants aren’t just applied to textiles around fireplaces and fire pits. They can be used anywhere to reduce the risk of fire-related accidents in venues, including schools, theatres & museums, hospitals, clinics & aged care homes, government & commercial office buildings, hotels & convention centres, holiday homes & Airbnbs, residential homes, boats and planes.

Extra Comfort – Fire Defender is:

Made from eco-friendly and non-toxic ingredients
Sealed in and can’t be removed by everyday cleaning
Colourless and odourless once dry

So, next time you’re planning to curl up by the fire, add the kind of comfort that transcends a cashmere throw and contact Premium Surface Protection about fire-protecting your furnishings.
