Commercial Wallcovering vs. Wallpaper
The distinction between commercial wallcovering and typical wallpaper is profound. Commercial wallcoverings, like those from Wallscape, come in 54-inch wide rolls, offering a robust, thick texture with either fabric or non-woven backings. These products are designed for durability, featuring generic patterns suitable for high-traffic environments. They are fire code compliant, washable, and removable, making them ideal for commercial settings. In contrast, wallpaper, generally narrower at 20 or 27 inches, is thinner and more suited for residential use, lacking the durability and fire resistance required in public spaces VMSD.com
