Vitrulan woven glass fabric wallcoverings can now be customized with a patented metallic back coating, allowing magnets to be stuck directly to the wall itself - no need for separate cork or magnetic boards. The result is a hard-working, environmentally-responsible wall that’s both clean and stylish.

“Our Magnet glass deco fabric allows you to turn your walls into a vast and versatile presentation board,” explained Gerald F. Griffin, Vitrulan vice president of sales. “It’s the perfect wallcovering solution for settings like schools, offices and hospitals - any place where creativity and multifunctionality come into play.”

Helping reduce maintenance costs for interior walls, Vitrulan glass deco fabric is highly resistant to wear and tear and features excellent reinforcing characteristics. It prevents dry-wall cracks in new buildings and covers existing cracks in older buildings. Plus, the Magnet glass deco fabric offers a variety of textural design options, but can also be used on the reverse side to provide a smooth surface if preferred. It can then be coated with any color of latex paint and a combination of low-VOC epoxies or polyurethanes to achieve a highly durable and stylish wallcovering.

All Vitrulan glass deco fabrics and coatings offer unparalleled hygiene qualities, as well as environmental benefits. They are chlorine-free, emit low volatile organic compounds and have a high permeability rating, making them the perfect choice for hygiene-sensitive areas like restaurants and healthcare and assisted living facilities. Vitrulan glass deco fabric provides an easy-to-clean surface that offers no pores and pockets.

“The benefits of Vitrulan Magnet are practically endless, making it an ideal choice for a variety of applications,” said Griffin. “It’s an attractive solution for presentation areas in architect firms or ad agencies, school classrooms and offices, daycare play areas, corporate conference rooms, hospital nurses’ stations and waiting rooms - the possibilities are unlimited.”
