Choose Wallpaper Or Wall Covering For Decoration?
Jul 17, 2021
Wallpaper and wall cloth are widely used indoor decoration materials. In wall decoration materials, in addition to the use of latex paint, the common ones are wallpaper or wall coverings. However, many people don't understand the specific difference between wallpaper and wall covering. Let me give you a detailed introduction below.
Wallpaper
Wallpaper is a combination of paper and glue made by a special process, and is pasted on the wall.

Advantage
1. Rich patterns
There are more colors, rich patterns, and strong selectivity. At the same time, the colors are pure, and the actual effect of the decoration will not be very different from the expected effect.
2. High health index
Mainly made of ink and paper base, it is safe and reliable, relatively environmentally friendly, and less harmful.
3. Easy to replace and easy to clean
Compared with wall coverings, wallpaper construction technology is simpler, faster, and easier to replace. It is scrub-resistant and can keep the room clean and tidy.
Disadvantage
1. There are gaps
The wallpaper is pasted on the wall in rolls in the construction project, so there can be a gap between the wallpaper and the wallpaper, which requires a higher craftsmanship for the paving master.
2. Poor moisture-proof and flame-proof performance
The nature of wallpaper is "paper", and its ability to deal with water and fire is limited after all. Therefore, it has poor moisture and flame resistance and is prone to mold when exposed to moisture, which affects the indoor environment.
3. Easy to curl and curl
Compared with wall coverings, wallpaper is light in weight and prone to problems such as curling and warping, which affects the aesthetic effect.
Wallcovering
As the name suggests, wall cloth is actually a kind of "cloth", a special fabric used for decoration. Usually "cotton" is the main material, and the surface is embroidered, printed or other textures are modified.

Advantage
1. High wear resistance
The wall cloth itself is thicker, more wear-resistant than wallpaper, has a longer service life, and can also protect the wall to a certain extent.
2. Not easy to curl and curl
Thick and wear-resistant wallpaper is not prone to curling and warping due to friction during use.
3. Seamless paving
Today's wall covering can be designed according to the size of the wall, accurately grasp the width and height of the wall, and seamlessly pave. There will be no gaps, exposed glue through the bottom, and warped edges and cracks.
4. Strong three-dimensional effect
Embroidery, printing and other decorations have a three-dimensional effect. Therefore, the use of wall coverings can make the wall surface no longer just a flat design, but can have a strong three-dimensional effect.
Disadvantage
1. Few styles
Compared with wallpaper, wall coverings have fewer texture styles, so the range of choices is limited.
2. High price and high loss
The price of wall cloth itself is higher than that of wallpaper, and it needs to be customized according to its own situation. When doors and windows are encountered, they will be cut and the loss will be greater.
