Planning a fitout or renovation? If you’re thinking about replacing joinery, wall panels or built-in cabinetry consider architectural wraps first.
These high-performance surface films replicate the look and feel of premium materials, giving your space a whole new finish without demolition or downtime.
What are architectural wraps?
Architectural wraps are durable, self-adhesive films designed to mimic surfaces like:
- Timber
- Stone
- Concrete
- Matte or metallic finishes
- Marble or brushed textures
They can be applied to flat or curved surfaces, including cabinetry, wall panels, doors, counters and columns.
The case for wraps over replacement
Replacing joinery means:
- Removing existing fixtures
- Managing trades and timelines
- Generating waste
- Higher materials and labour costs
- Disruption to your space
Architectural wraps, on the other hand:
- Are installed quickly with minimal mess
- Cost significantly less
- Breathe new life into tired surfaces
- Offer consistent finish and flexibility
- Extend the life of your existing fitout
Where wraps work best
- Commercial office refurbishments
- Hospitality or retail upgrades
- Lift interiors and wall panels
- Kitchenettes, cabinets and storage walls
- Reception desks, wardrobes or display units
They’re especially useful in tenanted buildings or short-term lease environments where full renovation isn’t an option.
Durability and maintenance
Modern architectural films are made to last. Many are:
- Scratch-resistant
- Stain-resistant
- Easy to clean
- Fire-rated for commercial use
- Designed to hold up to daily wear in high-traffic areas
