Different types and uses of Wallpapers

 The use of wallpaper for wall decoration purposes has found a new zeal among homeowners these days.

The ease of application and removal of wallpaper has made it a new favorite of designers as well as clients.

The use of wallpaper is to cover the wall and give it an aesthetic appeal.

In this article, we will discuss the main kinds of wallpaper and hopefully, that would help you choose the right option for your home.

 Traditional Wallpaper

As the name suggests this is the traditional type of wallpaper.

They are affordable, easy to apply, found everywhere but they can’t be washed.

The colors fade away.

Some of the wallpapers could be less resistant to moisture.

 

Embossed Wallpaper

These are textured.

Embossed wallpapers add depth and contrast to walls.

The textures could be simple to dramatic. They are great for hiding wall defects.

It is hard to apply them though and probably even harder to get them off.

 

Vinyl based Wallpaper

It is one of the most popular options available in wallpapers.

It is easy to apply, remove, and maintain.

There are many different styles and patterns available for you to choose from?

The many categories that are available in the Vinyl based wallpaper are:

 

Solid Sheet Vinyl

It is one of the most durable wallpapers you can find.

It can also be embossed, which just adds to the beauty of the wallpaper and ultimately the space that you are decorating.

It is also very easy to apply and remove.

It also provides very good protection to the wall.

 

Vinyl Coated Fabric

Fabric wallpaper is an increasingly popular choice these days because of its texture and realness.

It provides good protection and has amazing durability.

It is a bit difficult to apply?

 

Vinyl Coated Paper

This kind of wallpaper can be easily washed, something that can’t be done with normal wallpaper.

It has increased protection and durability, which makes it a great choice for laundry room, kitchen, etc.

 

Non-Woven Wallpaper

The non-woven kind of wallpaper is a recent development and is vinyl-free.

They are green, which is to say environmentally friendly.

So their use is highly recommended.

It also is very easy to install and remove.

One great advantage of these wallpapers is that they come off

in a long strip, so if there is some repair to be done to the wall, it can simply come off and be put back again.

 

Liquid Wallpaper

They are made of cellulose and cotton fiber.

They have to apply in liquid form.

They are very easy to maintain, hide the defects, and are very easy to repair.

They take about 24 hours to dry.

They are ecological, affordable, and non-toxic.

It is similar to paint in many ways but it has one glaring disadvantage.

It is rinsed off with water.

So, one has to be quite careful with these.

 

Fiberglass Wallpaper

They are made of glass fibers woven and bonded together.

They are incredibly strong and made from natural, non-toxic substances.

Thus, they are considered green.

They are flame resistant.

The disadvantage is that they are very expensive.

 

Bamboo Wallpaper

They are made from bamboo, as can be inferred from the name.

They are an environmentally friendly natural product.

The color remains the same over a long time.

It can be affected by moisture and can’t be cleaned much.

 They are not recommended for use in the kitchen, especially backsplashes and bathrooms.

The price is high and over time dust accumulation can be a problem.

 

Easy-Walls Wallpaper

Easy-walls are material which is completely PVC and VOC free, and the ink is water-based.

This makes the wallpaper environmentally safe and also very safe and desirable from the occupant’s point of view.

It comes with a pre-applied adhesive so its application and removal are very easy.

The use of wallpaper for wall decoration purposes has found a new zeal among homeowners these days.
