When choosing a wallpaper, pay attention to the non-woven wallpaper. Based on the composition, they look like paper. But by their properties, non-woven wallpaper is more resistant to wear and fire. Also, in density they are much stronger. They feel like fabric to the touch.
The minus of these wallpapers is the accumulation of dust on the relief patterns, so they need to be wiped with a piece of cloth, preferably wet.
Most often, these wallpapers are used for paint. They have an uneven textured surface. Paint for such wallpapers is best used on a water basis. After a while, you can easily repaint your wallpaper, thereby changing the appearance of your apartment in a budget and inexpensive way.
Also, there are wallpapers that consist purely of non-woven fabric and those made on its basis. So the wallpaper based on non-woven is as follows: the vinyl layer is glued onto the non-woven base, in the form of a pattern, it is embossed and textured.
