Eco-Solvent based Wallpaper are Toxic!
Eco-Solvent based Wallpaper are Toxic!
When I set out to write about eco-friendly wallpaper, I thought this would be a pretty straightforward exercise of looking at the VOC levels of the inks.
It turned out that newer wallpaper materials are far more complex and contain a lot more chemical additives than just paper and ink.
Why many selling Cheap Customized Wallpapers in India?
Most of the Custom Wallpaper Suppliers (Online and Offline) are selling Eco-Solvent and solvent based Wallpapers to keep high margins and they are very harmful for kids as Eco-Solvent based Wallpapers are likely to be higher in VOCs.
These Wallpapers are priced at Rs 40/- to 50/- per sq ft. on HD media which is a PVC based synthetic banner material used as Wallpapers.
What is PVC?
Most common plastics pose serious threats to human health and the environment. The problems of plastics include extreme pollution from production, toxic chemical exposure during use, hazards from fires, and their contribution to the world's growing solid waste crisis. But one plastic stands alone: PVC, throughout its lifecycle, is the most environmentally damaging of all plastics.
PVC is the most environmentally damaging plastic. The PVC lifecycle -- its production, use, and disposal -- results in the release of toxic, chlorine-based chemicals. These toxins are building up in the water, air and food chain.
The result: severe health problems, including cancer, immune system damage, and hormone disruption. No one can escape contamination: Everyone, everywhere has measurable levels of chlorinated toxins in their bodies.
What to Look for in an Eco-Friendly Wallpaper:
Water-Based Ink Printed Wallpaper
Generally, water-based ink is preferable to solvent-based ink. Solvent-based ink is likely to be higher in VOCs.
