Which is more environmentally friendly, wallpaper or wall paint?

With a little personal knowledge and understanding, wall paint and wallpaper are not environmentally friendly.

In fact, I personally think that if the house is more environmentally friendly after putty scraping, the wall surface at this time can also be said to have a "breathing function", but if the wall paint is painted, it is equivalent to covering the wall surface with a film, which is airtight. Brand wall paint may use high-quality environmental protection materials, so there will be less pollution and smell in the later period, but the wall has lost its "breathing function". Besides, wallpaper is also putty-scraped, but no matter which brand of wallpaper wants to be on the wall, it is glue. So there is a layer of glue between the putty layer and the wallpaper. Glue itself smells, and material suppliers often choose cheaper glue in order to save costs. Therefore, the biggest smell of the renovated new house comes from these glues. At the same time, the glue perfectly isolates the breathing function of the wall. At the same time, in the absence of external interference, the service life of wallpaper is about five to eight years, and it is still a high-quality wallpaper. But I don't know if anyone has noticed that wallpaper is easy to get moldy, especially in wet corners. Take a picture.

See these mildew spots?

As I said before, I am a decoration worker. One year after graduation, I am now further and further on the road of interior designers.

This is a model house that the customer bought. Because I don't like its decoration style, I plan to tear it down and redecorate it, so I am fortunate to see the disadvantages of wallpaper.

This property is also considered the top property in Wuhan. The East Lake in Wuhan Overseas Chinese Town is pure waterfront, and the house has not been built for many years, let alone how long the model house has been renovated.

Besides, see that yellow area? That is the glue layer, which has perfectly surrounded and isolated the putty layer.

Hazards of wallpaper and latex paint: wallpaper and latex paint are two different types of products, paint belongs to chemical products, and wallpaper belongs to a craft product. Now the pollution is more and more serious, so people pay more attention to environmental protection types in the choice of decoration materials, so we must fully consider the characteristics and differences of these two materials when choosing.

1. wallpaper: the pollution of wallpaper is mainly ink and paper. Good wallpaper has a low content of harmful substances, but now there are many wallpaper brands and the supervision is chaotic. It is hard to say which wallpaper is more environmentally friendly! The pollution of inferior wallpaper may be much greater than that of regular latex paint.

2. Latex paint: Latex paint contains VOC and free formaldehyde, but the brand-name paint of general manufacturers can control less harmful substances. After the latex paint is dried, these harmful substances will completely volatilize and there will be no environmental problems. Therefore, the slight pollution degree of latex paint will be relatively low in the short term.

Which is better to clean, wallpaper or wall paint? After a period of destruction and running-in, the floor of the house is fine, but the walls are dirty and need to be cleaned again. If it is wallpaper, it is more convenient and simple to clean up. Once it is torn, it is more troublesome to handle the paint. Whether you lay a newspaper or a tarpaulin in the whole house, it will inevitably bring sand to your floor or tile.
