Top Notch Menu Covers Chosen

When it comes to choosing a cover such as this for use on television, you want to use something that is sleek, elegant, timeless but not too flashy – because you don’t want it to distract from the news that is being presented. The BBC has chosen a product from our range that will be suitable for their purposes due to its elegant and chic design.

The menus covers that were selected for this purpose are simple, traditional Stitched Hide Leather designs. They are classic and timeless, offering sophisticated style but not drawing too much attention to themselves. With an A4 size and simple cord fixing with wallets, these stitched-hide covers are a very popular option because they are suitable for many different settings.

If you are looking for a high quality Menu Cover product, you might want to take inspiration from BBC Scotland and choose one of our beautiful Stitched Hide Leather products. These menu covers are made from a hardwearing simulated hide, which has the look and feel of real leather. They have a sturdy and attractive baseball style stitch that runs around the edge, which can be in a colour matched to the menu cover or in white.

These menu covers are usually ordered by pubs, cafes, clubs and restaurants – because they are attractive, easy to clean and hard wearing. Although they are usually employed in a food service context, BBC Scotland has chosen them for use on their news programme. This simply shows that a stylish, sleek and simple black folder can be used in a number of different settings.
