Seaside Breeze Café, nestled right by the ocean in a tourist - favored coastal town, was gearing up for a much - needed facelift. The café had been a local hotspot for years, but its interior was showing signs of wear, especially in areas like the kitchen, restrooms, and the seating section near the large ocean - facing windows. The high humidity from the sea air, along with occasional salt - laden sprays, had taken a toll on the existing building materials. The old gypsum boards were prone to warping, mold growth, and peeling, which not only affected the café’s aesthetic appeal but also raised concerns about structural integrity and hygiene. Determined to create a more durable, visually appealing, and low - maintenance space, the café owners set out to find a suitable building material and ultimately chose YATAI PVC gypsum boards.
The coastal humidity is a breeding ground for mold and mildew, which can be both unsightly and a health hazard in a food - serving establishment. YATAI PVC gypsum boards have inherent anti - microbial properties. The PVC surface doesn’t provide a suitable environment for mold spores to take root and grow. This feature was a major selling point for the café, as it would help maintain a clean and hygienic environment for both customers and staff, reducing the need for frequent and intensive cleaning to combat mold.
With a steady stream of customers, including families with kids and tourists carrying beach gear, the café needed interior materials that could withstand accidental impacts. YATAI PVC gypsum boards are known for their high impact resistance. The PVC coating adds an extra layer of toughness, so minor knocks and bumps from chairs, luggage, or wayward beach balls won’t leave unsightly dents or cracks. This durability ensures the café’s interior will look fresh and new for longer, saving on repair and replacement costs down the line.
The café owners envisioned a bright, modern, and coastal - themed interior. YATAI PVC gypsum boards come in a variety of finishes, from smooth matte to subtle textures, and can be easily painted or decorated to match any design scheme. They chose a soft, beach - sand color for most of the boards, which complemented the ocean views and created a cohesive, inviting atmosphere. The boards’ smooth surface also allowed for easy installation of coastal - inspired wall art and signage.
The installation process was relatively straightforward, thanks to the lightweight nature of YATAI PVC gypsum boards. The construction team used standard drywall - installation techniques but took extra care to seal the joints properly. Special PVC - compatible adhesives and sealants were used to ensure a waterproof seal along the edges and seams, especially in the kitchen and restroom areas where moisture exposure would be highest. In the seating area, the boards were cut and fitted to follow the curved lines of the café’s architecture, adding a touch of elegance to the space.
Once the boards were installed, the café owners went to work on the finishing touches. They painted the boards in the chosen beach - sand color, which enhanced the coastal vibe. In the kitchen, they added stainless - steel trim around the board edges for a clean, professional look. In the seating area, they mounted nautical - themed artwork and LED strip lighting along the board edges to create a warm, inviting ambiance in the evenings.
The café’s new look was a hit with customers. The bright, uniform color of the YATAI boards, combined with the coastal decor, created a more inviting and relaxing atmosphere. Customers commented on how clean and fresh the interior felt, especially in the restrooms and kitchen - viewing areas. The café saw an increase in repeat customers and positive online reviews, with many praising the “new, modern coastal vibe.”
The café owners were pleased to find that the initial investment in YATAI PVC gypsum boards translated to long - term savings. They spent less on cleaning supplies to combat mold and had no need to repair or replace damaged boards. The durability of the boards also meant the café could avoid costly future renovations for at least the next several years.
