Wall covering

Under wall covering refers to the vesting of walls in rooms with fabrics.

A distinction is made between historical (classic) and modern wall coverings.

With the historical wall covering, the wall covering material is attached to wooden strips. The wooden strips must form a four-sided frame for this. The fastening is done with nails, or nowadays with staples.

With modern wall covering, the fabric is clamped or hung in plastic profile strips. The best-known molding systems are ADO CoverTex ^TM and the wall covering system from MHZ.

The wall covering material always includes a sub-covering, consisting of fleece or molton, which supports the thermal insulation and sound absorption.

The textile wall covering has gained in importance again in our time, since the building physics benefits are highly valued.

Wall covering is a good alternative to wallpaper or paint.

In addition to good sound and thermal insulation, the advantages also include the need for preparatory work on the substrates. Fine plastering, peeling, smoothing and painting can be dispensed with for new buildings. This eliminates expensive waiting and drying times. The variety of wall covering fabrics is very large. A more difficult flammability, room air improvement effect, or protection against electrosmog are just a few examples.
