Textile Wall Covering is a fabric based wall covering. These wall coverings fit in well with other elements in the interior design such as curtains, furniture and upholstery. They are particularly suitable for hotels, meeting and conference rooms as well as noble lounges and bars but also for discerning private households. They stand out with their unique beauty, exclusive materials and an exceptional service life. They are thermally insulating and sound dampening.
Fabric Wallpapers are generally produced in a wide variety of patterns and colors. The fabric is often coated with a fireproofing and backing material for a longer service life and easier cleaning. The fabrics used may be natural .
When working with a fabric-based wall covering, it is important to start out with properly measured space. Use tape to measure the height and width of the area to be covered and jot the measurements down for reference. Once you have the dimensions, bring swatches of assorted backed fabrics home and tape them up on the wall to see which ones work best in your space. When you are ready to order, keep in mind that fabrics with large repeats require more yards and are more expensive than smaller patterns.
When you’ve selected your fabric, cut it roughly to size. You’ll be trimming precise edges later so leave about 2 inches of extra fabric at the top and bottom as well as along window edges. The fabric should then be prewashed to remove any excess starch.
