More colourful, wilder, crazier: every day brings new adventures for children. And while the garden becomes a race track and the nursery a pirate ship, parents are primarily concerned that their offspring can play in a safe and healthy environment. Socket covers, no sharp edges and certified toys? These are a matter of course. But what about good indoor air quality? Not everyone is aware that this often requires more than just airing out the room.
Some building materials, furniture and other items emit volatile organic compounds – also known as VOCs – without anyone noticing. Depending on their concentration in the indoor air, these can cause headaches or respiratory irritation. The good news is that you can prevent this perfectly by using products that are proven to be healthy for living, especially on large surfaces such as walls and ceilings. First and foremost, with the help of Erfurt woodchip wallpaper. This classic wallpaper is manufactured entirely without harmful plasticisers, PVC or solvents and has been proven to be extremely low in VOC emissions. Furthermore, the wall covering regulates humidity, meaning it can absorb and release moisture as needed.
This makes woodchip wallpaper the ideal basis for a healthy, low-pollutant living environment in children's rooms and any other room. Their safety is underpinned by the ‘Blue Angel’ eco-label, which certifies only products with low environmental impact and high health protection. Even hypersensitive residents can play it safe thanks to the TÜV Nord test seal ‘Suitable for allergy sufferers’. But woodchip wallpaper can do even more: Erfurt wallpaper is easy to hang yourself and can be creatively designed – together with residents young and old, of course – using brushes, stamping techniques or handprints. Because the wallpaper can also be painted over several times, it can easily be used to change the look of a child's room over many years. And as a robust wall covering, woodchip wallpaper can withstand minor knocks and bumps – which is invaluable in the realm of cowboys, fairies and the like.
