FAQs
What does 'non-woven' wallpaper mean?
Non-woven wallpaper is made from a blend of natural and synthetic fibers. It's known for being more durable, tear-resistant, and easier to apply and remove than traditional paper-backed wallpapers. You typically apply the paste directly to the wall, not the paper.
How much wallpaper do I need?
Each roll measures `0.53 x 10.05 meters`. To calculate, measure the height and total width of your walls. Divide the total width by the roll width (0.53m) to get the number of strips. Multiply by the wall height. Remember to account for the pattern repeat and add about 10-15% extra for trimming and waste.
Can I install this wallpaper in a bathroom?
While this wallpaper is `abrasion-resistant` and durable, it's generally recommended for dry indoor environments. For bathrooms, especially those with high humidity, consider wallpapers specifically designed for moisture resistance. This product is best suited for living rooms, bedrooms, or offices.
Is this wallpaper environmentally friendly?
Yes, it is `FSC-Mix certified`, meaning the wood fiber content comes from responsibly managed forests and other controlled sources. It also boasts `low indoor air emissions`, contributing to better air quality in your home.
What kind of paste should I use?
For non-woven wallpaper, it is crucial to use a high-quality paste specifically formulated for non-woven materials. This is often referred to as 'paste-the-wall' adhesive. Always follow the paste manufacturer's instructions.
Can this wallpaper be painted over?
This wallpaper is designed as a finished decorative surface with a `modern wood panel design` and `light embossing`. While theoretically possible, painting over it would cover the detailed pattern and texture, and is not its intended use.
What is 'lightfastness'?
Lightfastness refers to the wallpaper's resistance to fading when exposed to light, particularly sunlight. This wallpaper is `highly lightfast`, meaning its color and design will remain vibrant for a long time without fading.
Troubleshooting
Wallpaper bubbles appear after drying.
This can happen if air is trapped or paste was uneven. For small bubbles, try carefully piercing with a fine needle and smoothing. For larger areas, gently peel back, reapply paste, and smooth again.
Seams are visible or lifting.
Ensure walls are properly prepped and paste is evenly applied to edges. Use a seam roller to gently press seams. If lifting occurs after drying, apply a small amount of seam adhesive underneath and press firmly.
Pattern does not match perfectly between strips.
Take your time aligning each strip, starting from the top. Use the `seamless repeat` as a guide. If a mismatch is minor, it might be less noticeable once dry. For significant mismatches, consider re-cutting and re-hanging the problematic strip.
Wallpaper is tearing during application.
Non-woven wallpaper is generally durable. Tears usually indicate excessive handling or an issue with the wall surface (e.g., sharp protrusions). Work gently and ensure your cutting tools are sharp. Check the wall for any rough spots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Instructions
- Prepare Your Walls: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, smooth, and free from dust or loose paint. Fill any holes or cracks and prime porous surfaces for optimal adhesion.
- Measure and Cut: Measure your wall height and add a few extra inches to the top and bottom for trimming. Cut your first strip of wallpaper.
- Apply Paste: For non-woven wallpaper, apply a high-quality non-woven wallpaper paste directly to the wall section where you will hang the first strip. Ensure even coverage.
- Hang the First Strip: Align the first strip along a plumb line (a vertical guide) from top to bottom, pressing it gently onto the pasted wall. Use a wallpaper smoothing tool or brush to remove air bubbles, working from the center outwards.
- Match and Repeat: For subsequent strips, apply paste to the next section of the wall. Carefully align the `seamless repeat` pattern with the previous strip before pressing it onto the wall. Trim excess at the top and bottom with a sharp utility knife.
- Clean Up: Immediately wipe away any excess paste from the wallpaper surface or seams with a damp sponge.
Compatibility
This non-woven wallpaper is suitable for most interior dry walls, including plasterboard, concrete, and painted surfaces, provided they are properly prepared. Its `low indoor air emissions` make it compatible with various indoor environments, including children's rooms or offices, without contributing significantly to air pollution.
Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning: The `abrasion-resistant` surface allows for gentle cleaning. For everyday dust, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For minor marks, use a slightly damp sponge with mild soap, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners.
- Durability: Its `highly lightfast` property means it will resist color fading from sunlight, ensuring its green hue remains vibrant over time.
- Storage: If you have leftover rolls, store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
