During the repair, any owner wants to arrange the room functionally, beautifully and comfortably. At the same time, the budget does not always allow to purchase high-quality finishing materials. The choice today is really quite huge, and the modern market offers a lot of different options. For a long time, classic paper wallpapers, which are environmentally friendly, have been popular, they are called breathing wallpapers, since they perfectly pass air. This of course will be an undeniable advantage in a panel house, but with concrete walls there is no difference. By the type of the applied drawing, they are usually divided into smooth and embossed ones, the second case implies convexity. This option hides all the roughness of the walls and small irregularities.
As for the main shortcomings of paper, first of all:
- Instability to mechanical damage;
- Intolerance to a large amount of moisture;
- Do not tolerate direct sunlight.
But all these shortcomings are covered by low cost, and this is what primarily explains demand.
At the moment, there is a single-layer wallpaper and two-layer. The second option is resistant to moisture and ultraviolet radiation, but it has a higher cost. Wet cleaning is not at all scary, since the duplex is covered with latex.
This option is considered the most short-lived, because paper is used as the main material. The maximum period of use does not exceed 5 years. It should also be noted that they absorb odors, which also can not be attributed to the benefits.
Also, the most short-lived wallpapers include acrylic wallpapers, this is due to the fact that the acrylic layer rather thin, unlike the same vinyl wallpaper, which is already considered one of the most high quality.
Natural wallpaper creates an unforgettable coziness and comfort in the room, most often paper is the basis, In exceptional cases, non-woven, as for the upper layer, they use veneer, straw, reed, algae or bamboo.
Of course, all this is quite beautiful, but there are several drawbacks that affect durability, and you need to know about them:
- Moisture intolerance. When wet, it easily loses color;
- When exposed to the sun, color is also lost, and quite quickly.
In addition, it is worth saying that it is very difficult to glue them, and joints are often visible between the strips of natural material.
