Let's analyze the standard sizes according to the materials.

Roll length

The main standard for roll length is 10.05 meters .

Long rolls are paintable wallpaper:

  • 15 m long and 0.53 m wide - vinyl and paintable.
  • 25 m long and 1.06 m wide - non-woven backing for painting.

Wallpaper width

Width standards depending on the types:

  • 0. 53 m (53 cm, half meter) is the most popular width. As a rule, these are paper and vinyl.
  • 0.7 m (70 cm) - vinyl from European manufacturers (Italy or Germany).
  • 1.06 m (106 cm, metres) - wide wallpapers always come with a non-woven backing, which ensures ease of pasting and reduces the number of seams. Wallpaper 1 meter wide is easier to glue than narrower ones.

If the size does not meet the described standards, then you have imported vinyl. Take a closer look at their prices!

Wall mural has its own dimensions, see packaging.

You can use our calculator to calculate the number of wallpaper rolls for a room. It takes into account the subtraction of the area of ​​windows, doors and cabinet.

How to choose the material and pattern of wallpaper

There are two ways to decorate the wall of a room - painting or wallpapering. Preparing a wall for painting is an expensive pleasure, you need to level the wall, if the house is new, it will shrink and so that the painting does not crack, you need to properly prepare the wall. If the painting is not suitable, then you need to choose the right wallpaper. First of all, pay attention to whether it will be easy to care for them and for what room you are going to use them.

Marking

Paper wallpapers

Catalog: 550 paper wallpapers from 20 manufacturers from 5 countries

Paper wallpapers are usually produced in a width of 53 centimeters. The simplest and budget option, but also the most capricious material:

  • Simplex - single-layer, not strong and deformed from moisture
  • Duplex - two-layer, more durable

They are thin, able to pass air, and this is already a plus, they have minimal chance of mold - hypoallergenic and environmentally friendly. Suitable for rooms without high humidity. But they cannot be washed and even wiped with a damp cloth: the paper will simply spread. Before gluing, make sure that the wall is well aligned, otherwise all the bumps will show up. Paper wallpapers are short-lived, but you can find advantages in this - glue them in the nursery, if their child paints, replacement will not be expensive. It is easier to pick up impractical wallpaper for use in the living room or bedroom. They definitely cannot be used in the kitchen and it is undesirable to use them in the corridor.

Vinyl wallpapers

Catalogue: 17 200 vinyl wallpapers from 54 manufacturers from 10 countries

Durable, they are denser and can hide minor wall irregularities during installation. They can be washed - this is both a plus of the material and a minus that the vinyl (PVC) backing is airtight. Because of this, mold can occur with leaks from neighbors. Such wallpapers are exceptionally well suited for the kitchen and corridor, as they are the most practical in terms of materials. Try to change them more often.

Non-woven wallpaper

Catalog: 5600 non-woven wallpaper from 46 manufacturers from 10 countries

You want to choose wallpaper for the bedroom and living room - wide meter wide, width 1.06 m (106 cm).

Much stronger than paper but also more expensive. If the label indicates that they are washable, then you can use them in the kitchen and even in the bathroom, not in the wet area of ​​course.

Liquid wallpaper

Catalog: 250 liquid wallpaper, made in Russia

Very easy to apply and breathable. They have high practicality, are not subject to mechanical damage and flooding. Their surface lends itself well to washing and cleaning. Allows you to hide cracks and wall defects, serves as an alternative to painting walls with savings on leveling walls and puttying work. The material is applied with a spatula and when applied, you can make different patterns throughout the wall.

Textile or fabric wallpaper

This is a chic and expensive wallpaper. The big disadvantage is that they cannot be washed, even just the ingress of moisture leads to damage. Presentable but impractical wallpaper is used in the living room or bedroom. Definitely not suitable for the kitchen or hallway.

Do not know how to choose wallpaper? We will make this choice for you by analogues, sizes, price, color, pattern or style. We will choose from the assortment of our store - about 25,000 options.

Which wallpaper is best for different rooms

  • For the kitchen. When choosing wallpapers for the kitchen, it is better to give preference to washable ones, as a rule, these are vinyl. In this case, you can even choose a textured surface or silk-screen printing. It is better to choose a smooth surface, as dust and dirt and soot will collect very quickly at the edges of the pattern.
  • To the living room. Presentable but impractical wallpaper can be used in the living room or hall: fabric or paper. If necessary, and properly selected colors, you can find decent options among vinyl and non-woven.
  • To the nursery. Presentability and practicality are definitely not the main thing for this room. It is worth choosing from more environmentally friendly materials, staying on paper wallpaper as correctly as possible. They can be easily and not expensively replaced, they have many children's drawings. Even if a child starts to draw on them, this is not a disaster.
  • To the bedroom. For small bedrooms, it is better to choose wallpaper with a small pattern, and for large and spacious bedrooms, it is better to choose a wallpaper with a large and private one. Preference should be given to environmentally friendly and more natural, which will create a favorable microclimate in the room.
  • To the corridor. Wallpaper in the hallway should be easy to clean and maintain because the hallway is the fastest-polluting room in the house.
