Interior
marine upholstery is not exposed to outside elements and is located in cabins,
sport fishing boat interiors and yacht interiors. Given the fact that these
upholstery projects are not exposed to the harsh elements, there is a lot
of flexibility on fabric choices. The wide range of different interior marine
upholstery projects from small boat sleeping cabins to elite yacht state
rooms means Catalina Custom can offer materials such as:
A) Top of the
line Italian leather from Garrett Leather
B) Polyurethane
base mateials such as UltraLeather HP and Duratouch- These
materials offer
ground breaking technology in a new era of leather alternative luxury offering
benefits that real leather can't match like low waste, uniform color and
texture, excellent color fastness and superb stain resistance. This adds
up to low production costs now and lower maintenance expenses down the road.
This also comes with the comfort that what these materials offer is second
to none. Delivering an excellent "soft hand", realistic graining,
pliant drape and cooler than leather or vinyl, Catalina Custom never hesitates
to recommend UltraLeather HP or Duratouch for any upper end upholstery project.
Also available is UltraSuede - an excellent faux suede to compliment UltraLeather
HP or Duratouch.
C) Vinyls such
as Softside, Boltaflex, Morbern, Eduratex and Naugahyde. These are
great
for upholstery projects when trying to hold down cost. Being very cost effective
for the benefits of a wide range of colors and patterns to choose from,
new technology in the production of vinyls offer excellent durabilty while
providing good comfort with an excellent soft hand.

such as Sunbrella and Outdura are choices that are available in a solution
dyed acrylic canvas. Solutions is a very durable, tweed based cloth and
Phifertex offers a new cloth called Marquesa that has excellent qualities,

can even start looking at furniture fabric. Catalina Custom has done projects
where a state room in a yacht has the same characteristics as a living room
in a nice home.

and headlining material. Catalina Custom also provides materials for walls
and headliners.
Catalina
Custom has done extensive work on boats dealing with interior upholstery,
seating projects, wall coverings for decorations as well as padding and
covering walls for sleeping comfort in bunks. Different boat manufacturers
construct boat/yacht interiors differently and over the years, Catalina
Custom has come to know that these interiors can prove to be some of the
most challenging projects.

in materials and continues to research the latest material technology with
its suppliers. With our experience, we will continue to offer quality craftsmanship
