NANOTECHNOLOGY, SPIRITUAL HEALING, AND WALLPAPER
16 Jul '08 from the editors
In the June 22nd editors posting we offered the lowdown on health issues with wallpaper. Wallpaper is a popular choice for cozy-ing -up the place when it comes to home decorating. Keeping in mind that wallpaper may not have completed the transition to 100% eco-friendly, there are some things to look for that are an improvement. These typically include water based inks and bamboo. But who would have thought of nanotechnology?
Ecodomo, offers wallpaper made out of recycled materials, they call their product 'ecore'. Ecore relies on nanotechnology for its low energy process. The product is said to compete with vinyl and doesn't release any VOC's. The wallpaper is resistant to stains and tearing, doesn't burn, and is completely recyclable.
Since no trees are cut down when harvesting cork, and bamboo, these remain environmentally friendly choices. There are some interesting 3D modern wallpaper designs made from bamboo at QuantumWarpWallpaper.com.
Ai wall in Japan takes it to another level with their Igusa Straw wallpaper. Check out aiwallinfo. Igusa straw from Ai Wall sells itself as an anti-mold, anti-fungal, and claims to have a 'spiritual healing effect'. They will even send you swatches. ###
