Cloth wall coverings

Natural textile does not prevent the circulation of air and moisture, making the room walls "breathe". This is the most eco-friendly coverage of all possible. Touching the pile fabric is nice. It creates a sense of comfort and warmth. Upholstered walls help to relax. Soundproofing eliminates superfluous sounds. Appearance of tissue is much more decorative than all kinds of wallpaper and textured plaster. The result is that your apartment will become noticeably more comfortable and beautiful. You can buy a cloth soaked in preservatives. Then it will not start mold or any insects.

Damask fabrics give the interior a luxury. Decorated with velvet walls make the room more comfortable, and tulle will help create an environment full of glamor. If you want to give the room a romantic look, drape the ceiling in a tent or a sail. But apart from its decorative function drapery fabric performs and utilitarian: a matter, you can easily hide a variety of communications. With the help of tissue can be emphasized the most important part of your room or carry out its zoning. Modern styles require creative draperies, classical is focused on a long tradition of using fabric to decorate the home.

Fabric for the walls began to use even in ancient times. In Babylon and Assyria, used carpets, in ancient Rome - silk, in medieval Europe - tapestries. In wealthy homes XVIII-XIX centuries for this purpose to use expensive materials: silk, velvet, brocade. In poorer homes mostly knocked chintz wall. With the invention Wallpaper tissue receded into the background, but none of the material does not give the walls more beautiful than the fabric.

Currently, there are a number of synthetic coatings on textile base. They are made of paper or non-woven base and top cover dirt-and water-repellent compounds. Fabric - an environmentally friendly material, which allows walls to "breathe". In addition, the matter was treated with antistatic, so it does not attract dust.

Most often used for wall coverings jacquard fabric. Drawing on a pile fabric is created by differences in the length of the villi. Such coverage is pleasant to the touch, has good heat and sound insulation. Jacquard produced in rolls of a width of 2,8, 2,9 and 3,1 m and a length of up to 50 m. A feature of decoration is that the fabric does not pull on the cut, thus obtaining a monolithic coating with a single suture. Once the fabric is installed, cut holes for doors and windows. Jacquard cover is available without sinteponovoy or foam pads, which quickly starts to crumble and flake off from the kind of matter. Single-seam construction eliminates the differences in color between the individual sections of the wall (as is often the case with the wallpaper from different series). In addition, a fabric cover with proper anchorage never exfoliate, retaining its original form for all the years of service. The staining substance use special pigments that do not fade in the sun. A special coating protects the impregnation of swelling under high humidity. After graduating from upholstery work seam glued a strip of cloth. Stick fabric can only be on a special adhesive that is sold together with the coating. But do not try to stick the single seam cover yourself wisely to resort to professional help.

It should be remembered that when fixing the fabric single-joint manner to ensure that the angle from which you begin to drapery, was strictly equal to 90 °. Otherwise, roll the ends do not come together in the same plane.

But more often than fabric cover is double-layered: the back of the matter is the substrate of the foam. Its thickness is small, only - 2,5 - 3,5 mm. But thanks to this layer coating receives a high degree of heat and sound insulation. If the coating makes for a porous framework, it is between the fabric and base paving layer of synthetic film which protects the matter from the adhesive, which can act as a substrate, and the foundation - from moisture. Attach a separate cloth or cloths, or a seamless way, it all depends on how you prefer to work. The length of a roll can be up to 100 m, but for the upholstery of ordinary room enough 25 - 30-meter roll.

Fabric wall coverings can be either homogeneous (natural, artificial), and mixed (in natural fabrics added artificial fibers). From natural fibers often use silk, sisal, cotton, linen and jute. The peculiarity of this material - the presence of nodules. This is a consequence of the fact that natural fibers are rather short (typically 5-10 cm high, the same synthetic fibers may reach 8-10 km), with their connections and is thickened. Nodules - one of the signs of natural fabrics. Choosing a natural fabric, it must be remembered that it is stretched far worse than synthetic, and get a perfectly smooth surface with such a coating is impossible.

Artificial (viscose and acetate) and synthetic (polyacryl, polyester, polyamide) bad leak air. Therefore, these fibers corrugate and then twisted into yarn.

Many manufacturers of synthetic and blended fibers to simulate natural linen threads cut shorter. Thus, the nodules appear on the fabric, as well as on natural matters. The cost of natural fabrics is much higher, so their choice is small. Pure synthetic fabrics too, used infrequently. In the overwhelming majority of fabric wall coverings produced mixed and processed by special trains.

On the surface of the tissue covering typically applied to a special layer that protects against contamination. These materials do not attract dust and do not fade in the sun. In addition, many fabrics coated formulations, repels moisture. On this matter, the water simply rolls down, leaving no traces and no soaking. To remove dust, the walls cleaner (at least once a year), and every two years, a fabric cover of pure organic solvent. If the tissue is still formed smudge, remove it with a mixture of gasoline and chalk. For this mixture is applied on the spot, and then through 30 - 40 minutes, remove and wipe dry with a cloth (soft cloth or brush). If the matter can be dampened with water, then remove contaminants using ordinary stain removers. During the general cleaning upholstery carefully removed, numerated each panel (if not seamless padding made by), wash, iron and re-attach to the wall.
