What to know locally in Mbombela
Mbombela has foam and fabric suppliers in town that stock outdoor fabric, marine vinyl and open-cell foam because the lodges ask for them, with special ranges couriered from Johannesburg. Scatter cushion covers made to size are popular with guesthouses wanting a fresh look each year. Upholstery cleaners do a lot of mould and odour treatment after the rains, and some hire out extraction machines.
Mbombela: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Upholstery in Mbombela is shaped by the bush on its doorstep. The lodges and guesthouses between White River, Hazyview and the Kruger gates send lounge chairs, dining seats and patio cushions in for recovering, and their open game drive vehicles need bench seats redone in marine-grade vinyl that can take sun, rain and dust on the same day. In town, the hillside suburbs of Sonheuwel, West Acres and Steiltes bring leather couches and dining chairs, and KaNyamazane and Matsulu have home upholsterers working from the yard. Workshops sit in the industrial areas and out at Rocky Drift. The Lowveld summer is hot and humid, so mould behind cushions and rusted staples are as common as sun fade.
The requests we see from Mbombela usually come from:
