Paper
Paper wallpaper, made of one or more layers of paper. Thin and easily soiled, so they are difficult to keep clean.

In white and green color
On the market you can find textile wallpaper, which is made of fabric with a bottom paper layer. For obvious reasons, they are difficult to keep clean, and, most likely, they are not recommended for the kitchen, despite the amazing beauty.

The best solution would be washable wallpaper, which is not afraid of any moisture, neither fat nor high temperature in the room.
Wallpaper for the kitchen has completely different requirements than wallpaper for the living room or bedrooms. Therefore, the pattern and color is not as important as the quality of the material, its properties and ability to resist the daily aggressive effects.
The best solution for any kitchen would be washable wallpaper.
Of the variety of wallcoverings, the most suitable materials that meet the requirements are:
- Non-woven wallpaper.
- Vinyl non-woven.
- Glass fiber
- Structural paper.
