What impact does the development of the decorative paper industry have on the home decoration industry?

The development of the decorative paper industry has brought many changes to the home decoration industry:

1. More diverse design styles:

· In the past, home decoration styles were relatively monotonous. Now, with decorative paper, there are a variety of styles to choose from.

· If you want to decorate in a European luxury style, there are decorative papers with golden patterns. Applying them to the background wall decoration of the living room can instantly create a luxurious atmosphere like a palace.

· If you like a simple modern style, there are also decorative papers with simple geometric patterns and fresh colors to choose from. Decorative paper with simple geometric shapes such as triangles, circles or squares, and colors such as blue, green or beige, used for desk decoration in the study, can make the whole space look simple and agile. Working or studying in such an environment will make you feel  comfortable.

· If you like furniture with solid wood patterns, there are decorative papers with different wood grains. There are realistic oak grains, walnut grains, cherry grains, etc. Take the TV cabinet in the living room as an example. Pasting imitation oak grain decorative paper can not only show the texture of solid wood, but also avoid the problems of solid wood furniture being easily affected by moisture and deformation, and the cost is relatively low.

2. Significant improvement in quality and performance:

· Decorative paper is now more durable. In the past, ordinary decorative materials may wear out after a little friction in daily use, affecting the appearance and service life, but today’s decorative paper is completely different.
· For example, the kitchen cabinets at home are not easy to scratch  with wear and tear, and the stains are easy to clean. When the surface of the cabinet is accidentally stained with oil, water stains or food residues, just wipe it gently with a soft damp cloth, and the stains can be easily removed. There is no need to use strong detergents, and there is no need to worry about damaging the surface coating of the decorative paper.
· In addition, progress has also been made in environmental protection. When choosing furniture for children’s rooms, there are those with formaldehyde-free decorative paper, which are harmless to children’s health and are very safe to use.

3. Reduce costs and prices: Material costs are significantly reduced:

· When making furniture, it would be too expensive to use solid wood boards. Using decorative paper can achieve similar effects at a much lower cost. The construction is also simple and can even be done by yourself.
· For example, when refurbishing an old table by yourself, buy some decorative paper and stick it on it to make it look like new immediately and save the cost of hiring workers.

4. The driving force of innovative development:

· Technological innovation makes personalized customization of decorative paper possible.
· For example, some art studios print their own designed patterns on decorative paper， to make unique decorative frames. There are also more and more cooperation between decorative paper companies and home furnishing companies, jointly developing many novel home improvement products, making home improvement on the market more creative.
