There is no doubt that the main use of wallpaper is to improve and renew the decor and add a high aesthetic value to it, but that is not all. The benefits of wallpaper go beyond the aesthetic effects of the place to include important benefits especially for hotels and projects, provided that they comply with the highest recognized standards.
Hotels are places frequented by many people, and therefore they are subject to strict rules, regulations and standards regarding the building materials and components that can be used to ensure the safety of guests, including wallpaper. Therefore, it must comply with fire protection systems. This is in addition to other factors such as sound insulation, durability and cleaning.
In this article, we provide you with a brief guide on the importance of using wallpaper that meets international standards:
1- Fireproof
Fire protection should be a top priority. Therefore, wallpaper used in hotels must have at least a “fire-resistant” or “low flammability” rating. This must be verified with a certificate issued by the manufacturer. According to fire protection principles, “low flammability” means that the materials are generally flammable but react in a self-extinguishing manner due to their general properties or special surface treatment.
2- Durability / Cleanliness
There is no escaping the fact that hotel rooms are busy places, and every hotel owner knows that damage and dirt are inevitable. That is why wallpapers that are extremely durable and resistant to moisture and rust are great solutions. They are also essential to be easy to clean. In this context, there are many categories such as water-resistant, wash-resistant and scrub-resistant.
Although wallpapers can be changed frequently if they become damaged or out of fashion, it is important to find a compromise that meets your specific design needs while ensuring that the wallpaper maintains its appearance for as long as possible.
3- Noise reduction
Everyone agrees that in hotels, walls should not have ears at all! The good news is that some types of wallpaper can provide more privacy by absorbing sound and noise.
It is very important to find a great design that complements the spirit of your brand, but more importantly, combine it with high quality that guarantees you commitment to the best standards, most notably durability and fire resistance.
