The modern building materials market offers a wide variety of wall coverings, expanding the range from year to year and trying to satisfy consumers with any tastes and financial capabilities. These relatively new wall coverings include fiberglass wallpaper.

What kind of material is this?

This is a decorative wall covering, its structure reminiscent of fiberglass fabric. As source material a certain type of glass is used, from which high temperature pull fibers to form yarn different thicknesses and types. From this yarn the material itself is then woven: for painting fiberglass(or “cobwebs”) simply prepare a canvas, and for glass wallpaper they make textured decorative weaving.

To produce special glass for glass wallpaper, exclusively natural materials are used, which guarantee the absence of harmful chemical additives and provide high wear resistance. Fiberglass contains quartz sand, lime, soda and dolomite. Glass wallpaper is produced mainly in Germany and Sweden - countries known for their highest quality standards.

“Cobweb” is a painting fiberglass canvas, so named because of its external resemblance to a cobweb. It is both a decorative and reinforcing material used for finishing preparation surfaces. For example, when buildings shrink, tiny cracks appear in the plaster, and fiberglass creates a smooth surface, eliminating the appearance of cracks. The “web” also gives strength to the coating paint, does not burn and is easy to use.

“Gossamer” differs from glass wallpaper in its lower density; its purpose is to smooth the surface and achieve a “marble” effect. The “cobweb” is more reminiscent of a smooth canvas, while the weaving of the glass wallpaper is textured. “Spider web” is best glued to the ceiling, and glass wallpaper is the material that is used for final finishing walls and other surfaces.

Fiberglass wallpaper and painting fiberglass are used in a variety of places: in offices, hotels, hospitals, supermarkets, restaurants, banks, car dealerships, and, of course, in houses and apartments. Service life is up to 30 years, depending on the paint, the quality of the glue and the frequency of washing. And the paint can be renewed up to 6 times.

Fiberglass wallpaper is produced in a wide variety of textures. The photo shows various patterns of glass wallpaper: herringbone, leaf, diamond, matting, zigzag, cat, vertical and even flowers.

You can paste over a wide variety of surfaces: wood, metal, plastic, concrete, plasterboard, chipboard and cleaned brickwork. Large cracks must be pre-sealed, and porous surfaces must be primed.

How to glue and paint them

• Glass wallpaper looks the same on both sides, but sometimes manufacturers put a special gray stripe on the reverse side.
• Special glue must be applied to the wall, and not to the wallpaper. The canvases are glued end to end. When gluing “matting” or “cobweb” there is no need for large allowances; for other textures, an allowance of 5-10 cm is made to fit the pattern.
• Horizontal joints are possible if there is a cut left from the roll or the material was cut unsuccessfully.
• They are painted twice, with an interval of at least 12 hours. They are painted for the first time two days after gluing.
• When using wallpaper in a high-traffic area, choose waterproof, abrasion-resistant paint. Latex gloss or semi-gloss paints work very well.
• In order not to overspend the paint twice, before painting the glass wallpaper must be thoroughly primed with a diluted glue solution, otherwise it will absorb a lot of paint.
• As with regular wallpaper, glass wallpaper must be protected from drafts and sunlight until completely dry.

Advantages and disadvantages

Fiberglass wallpaper is a relatively new material for us, the pros and cons of which not everyone has yet understood. Some say that this is the best material available today, and all of Europe uses only this coating. Others argue that glass wallpaper is harmful. Let's try to understand the advantages and disadvantages of this wall covering.

Flaws

• The price varies greatly depending on the texture and pattern.
• For work, you must wear closed clothing with long sleeves and a medical mask, as some people may experience irritation from microparticles of wallpaper that get on the skin.
• It takes more paint on glass wallpaper than stated on the cans - they absorb it strongly.
• If there is an excess of glue and paint, glass wallpaper can separate from the wall under their weight.
• The weakly expressed texture is lost after several layers of paint.
• Stains from wallpaper can be difficult to remove if the paint is chosen incorrectly.
• They are very difficult to remove from the wall during the next renovation.

Despite the shortcomings, they have a number of undeniable advantages that make this material popular not only in European countries, but also for us.

Glass wallpaper is high quality new material for wall decoration. They are made from special fiberglass fabric, popularly known as fiberglass. The glass material itself is made from the very ordinary glass, or, more precisely, from a combination of sand, clay, soda and limestone.

Starting a conversation about unusual material for wallpaper, my friends often ask - “ glass wallpaper, what is it?? So that you do not have such questions, I will tell you briefly about the technology for creating this type of wallpaper:

quartz sand, glass, soda and dolomite are straightened and then poured into glass fiber. After the glass fiber manufacturing process is completed, it is woven directly into fiberglass. And only after overcoming these production stages glass wallpaper with colorful patterns is born. Shape and appearance fiberglass provides a special solution with which it is thoroughly impregnated. The fiberglass wallpaper is ready for painting, this is what it looks like:

Advantages of glass wallpaper

Fiberglass wallpaper is a unique type of wallpaper that can be painted. Their uniqueness lies in the following properties:

• Glass wallpaper does not allow air to pass through. Due to its airtightness, under this finishing material moisture does not accumulate, which eliminates dampness, mildew and mold in the rooms. Very important for residents of the first floors (especially if we're talking about about “Khrushchevkas”) like this modern version wall coverings will be a real salvation.
• High fire protection characteristics. Special tests have shown that among all types of wall coverings, glass wallpaper is the most protected in this industry. They are assigned the highest degree of non-flammability. And as a result, they are non-toxic because they do not emit harmful and toxic substances when burned.
• Natural material. The wallpaper consists of purified quartz sand, special protected glass, soda and dolomite. Thanks to this, an environmentally friendly environment is created in the room.
• High strength. These wallpapers have a number of high performance in the area of ​​reinforcement of the top finishing layer. Their base consists of fiberglass - this is one of the most strong materials. For example, if the wall decoration consists of regular wallpaper or decorative putty, then if cracks appear on the wall, there will be cracks in the finish. This is possible as a result of shrinkage of new buildings. In the case of glass wallpaper, there will be no cracks in the finish.

Fiberglass wallpaper is suitable for pet owners, as animals will not be able to chew, scratch or otherwise damage the surface. In addition, if someone gets them dirty, the wallpaper can be easily cleaned and washed with water.

IN Lately Wallpapers that do not require prior priming have begun to appear on sale. Moreover, many of them are soundproofed (find out what thermosound insulation is). All thanks to the rubber backing, which absorbs sound waves. And probably one of the latest achievements in this area is magnetic wallpaper. You can hang, for example, metal frames with pictures on them without any fastening.

Wallpaper classification

This product is available in different price categories. It all depends on the quality of the material and the following criteria:

The 1st grade of glass wallpaper (full-weight glass wallpaper) has a high density (over 100 g/sq.m.). Thanks to this density, this wallpaper is very durable. Also, some companies offer wallpaper with highest density(more than 200 gr./sq.m.). In this case, the durability of these wallpapers is more than 30 years. They can be repainted several times and still look like new.

Economy class - these glass wallpapers have a low density, below 100 g/sq.m. This is also the most common wallpaper on the finishing materials market. The low density of the material will not allow it to last long. In addition, if you need to repaint them, the texture of the wallpaper itself will be clogged with paint.

2nd grade (non-standard) - some builders claim that the 2nd grade differs from the 1st grade only in the defective packaging. But that's not true! The second grade is exclusively a defect. And therefore, all the results of defects may appear in the canvas (holes, knocked-down patterns, protruding threads).

Application area

Glass wallpaper is finishing coat. Subsequently, paint of any color is applied to the wallpaper. Their originality is manifested in the fact that after applying the paint, the pattern or texture of the glass wallpaper itself appears. They can be used anywhere, especially in places where the walls are subject to heavy loads (kitchen, corridor; also, when using special paint, they can be used in the bathroom). Widely used in in public places, such as offices, schools, hotels, or other government institutions.

Gluing process

First you need to prepare the wall. It needs to be cleaned of dust and old wallpaper. If there are large defects on the wall, be it cracks or gouges, they need to be puttied and sanded. The wall needs to be primed, and diluted glue should be used as a primer.

After this, you need to liberally apply glue to the wall to glue 2-3 strips. Apply stripe by stripe and smooth with a rubber roller or wallpaper spatula. If necessary, adjust the stripes according to the drawing.

Fit the strips end to end. The first strip must be glued evenly, plumb or level. Cut off excess parts using a utility knife. After drying, it can be painted with two layers of paint.

Process of creation

Stage 1 - quartz sand, glass, soda and dolomite are placed in a furnace and melted at a temperature of 1200 degrees. Next, fibers are pulled out of them.

Stage 2 – weaving looms. At this stage of production, simple patterns and patterns are made on machines. To make more complex patterns, more sophisticated equipment is used. On such machines, each thread of the fiber can be controlled, making it possible to create patterns of any complexity.

Stage 3 – impregnation of wallpaper. This stage is unique for each manufacturer. The composition of any company's impregnation is a secret.

Stage 4 – sorting and packaging. They are usually cut one meter wide and 25 or 50 meters long. Hermetically sealed and a tag is attached.

History of glass wallpaper

The first such wallpaper appeared in Europe back in the 1930s. More wide application they received already in the 1970s in France, Germany and Sweden. And in our countries, glass wallpaper appeared in the 1990s. And since then they have occupied a worthy place in the finishing materials market.
