Glasstex Wallcoverings
Non-Toxic & Safe

Made from only natural non-toxic materials like quartz, soda, lime and dolomite. There is practically no build up of static electricity so several key causes of allergies are radically reduced. With the correct covering of paint, Glasstex is resistant to moisture, mould and mildew. The open-pore textile structure encourages natural moisture vapour diffusion, helping to ensure a healthy room climate.

Since Glasstex is the lightest fibre glass woven textile wallcovering in the market, it requires the least from nature in form of raw materials, production and transportation, and because we stock all our products in depth in the UK we actively reduce the carbon footprint of transporting our products from our factory

    • Horizontal spread of flames to doors and windows.

    • Vertical spread up wall surface to ceiling space

    • Spread along corridor walls to cut of adjoining rooms
