Facing the dazzling array of wallpapers on the market, are you just "taking people's appearances" when shopping?

How much do you know about the inner aspects of wallpaper materials, environmental protection, and how to use them more effectively?

Today, this newspaper invited wallpaper experts to interpret the “secrets” in the wallpaper for you, so that you will no longer be “outsiders” when choosing wallpapers later.

Purchase wallpaper

Consumers are more style

Recently, the reporter visited a large-scale home building materials store in Shenyang, in the actual home of the Huanggu store, Red Star Meikailong Tiexi, Longzhi Meng shopping malls, the reporter roughly the number of about a dozen companies specializing in the management of wallpaper brand. In addition, according to report, in addition to some large-scale one-stop purchase of home building materials stores have a dedicated wallpaper sales area, there are some more concentrated area of ​​small stores also have sales.

For the wallpaper currently on the market, many consumers do not know exactly what the wallpaper is and what the difference is.

In the process of the visit, the reporter also met several consumers who were consulting on the related issues of wallpaper.

When a reporter asked the salesperson of a wallpaper store about his situation, Zhang X told reporters that many consumers pay more attention to style when purchasing wallpapers, and they are not very concerned about their own materials. . In fact, the quality of the wallpaper is more about its material.

Various materials

Environmental protection varies widely

Faced with such a dazzling array of wallpapers, I believe many consumers will pick their eyes. How can we choose the best wallpaper?

First of all, we must make reasonable choices based on different materials. According to the general manager of a well-known domestic brand Shenyang, the main materials used in the home decoration market currently on the market are the following materials, including PVC synthetic wallpaper, plain paper wallpaper, diatomaceous earth wallpaper, wood fiber wallpaper, natural plant wallpaper, etc. .

For different materials, how best to choose?

Lu Qi told reporters that in the home improvement process, environmental protection is the most important.

Therefore, choose wallpapers of different materials and pay attention to their environmental protection.

When it comes to environmental protection, an international brand manager told reporters that pure wallpaper is made of grass, bark and natural wood pulp. Therefore, the environmental performance is high, and it is the best choice for children's room wallpapers. . In addition, the use of diatomite wallpaper at home has a strong effect, because the surface of the diatomaceous earth wallpaper pores, can absorb some of the harmful substances and odors in the room.

"But the opposite is that PVC synthetic wallpaper, it's environmental performance is worse, especially those who smell the smell of wallpaper wallpaper. "Professionals told reporters," PVC synthetic wallpaper permeability is poor, paste Walls are very easy to curl and yellow, so they are not suitable for use in the home."

Wide price range

Choose caution

Because the materials are different, the wallpaper has a large range of price fluctuations. When the reporter visited the market, he learned that the average price of domestic wallpaper was about 100 yuan to 200 yuan per roll, while for imported wallpaper, he had to pay a higher price. Most of the rolls were more than 300 yuan, or even thousands. . And for such a big difference in price, many consumers may have questions.

For the issue of price, the current imports of wallpaper are more American paper and European paper. For this kind of American paper and European paper, most imported wallpapers use pure pulp as the material. In addition to imports, they are also more expensive due to different materials. For relatively high-priced wallpapers, they can be used locally in the home.

“For some domestic or joint-venture brands, the price is much cheaper than the import, although the material is not as pure pulp as imported, but it can also be used in the home, probably the price is below 200 yuan/volume.”

In addition, for the general specifications of the wallpaper, the width is generally 0.53 meters and the length is 10 meters, and each roll is actually 5.3 square meters. However, there will be some loss in the actual paste, about 15%. Therefore, before the paste, it is necessary to reasonably estimate the loss of part of the wall wallpaper.
