Paperbacking
The luxurious look of fabrics on wall surfaces has been enjoyed for centuries. Fabric wallcoverings provide you with unlimited design possibilities using coordinating fabrics and integrating upholstery, drapes, top treatments, soft shades, roller shades, pillows and accessories.

Benefits of Paperbacking
Paperbacking is achieved by laminating paper to the back side of fabric. Most fabrics, even silks, damasks and moirés can be paperbacked and made ready for wallcovering installation.

• Adds substance and body to fabric making installation easier and quicker
• No adhesive bleed through during installation allowing for professional quality seams
• Extra thickness aids in concealing blemishes in
wall surfaces
• Paperbacked fabrics serve as insulators and
acoustical aids

In many cases backed fabrics can also be surface protected. For maximum protection, Vinylizing or Vinyl-Tex™ can be applied to most fabrics. Check with Customer Service for details.

Where to Use Paperbacked Fabrics
Bedrooms, dining rooms and living rooms are obvious places to use fabrics for wallcoverings. This economical treatment is also ideal for office, home and industrial wall spaces and can even be installed over paneling.

 

technical considerations
When a fabric is paperbacked it maintains all of its original color and texture qualities.

When fabrics are over 61” wide and full coverage is required, we will slit or trim the fabric to accommodate the paperbacking process. Additional charges apply. Contact Customer Service.
You must include with your order one additional yard for each continuous piece of material supplied.
