How Are Your Wallpaper Borders Printed And Made?
Your wallpaper borders are printed, cut and finished by hand by a team of skilled technicians. Extreme care and attention to detail is given to every order, to ensure an immaculate finish. When it comes to making borders for your walls, there are 3 options to choose from. The classic standard and a luxurious premium as well as a self-adhesive option. All papers look and feel beautiful, with matte finishes and light textured faces. The strength and durability are the same in all options, and they hold up brilliantly to scratches, abrasions and scuffs. Being environmentally friendly is a key mission of Contrado. As such, all papers are eco-friendly with no solvents or odours. We only use water-based inks and the premium option has a certified ECO-print.
There are a few subtle differences in the borders for wallpaper:
Standard: Your artwork is printed onto the chic, thick paper with a stunning matte finish, which offers a permanent print and very good print quality. Your paper comes with a 2-year guarantee for colour fastness when hung in an optimal area (out of direct sunlight). If you are planning on hanging your borders on dark walls, we suggest using a lining paper first or a coat of white paint.
Premium: This water activated paper requires no paste for application. Simply spray the wall and apply the borders where you wish. This stunning paper offers a permanent no-fade print, with super sharp print quality on a 100% opaque finish. Details and fine lines have incredible reproduction, while colours are crisp and vibrant.
Design Tips
It is important to consider the dimensions of the borders. Each strip measures 147 x 22cm, so it is vital to measure the total length and width of space that you are looking to cover. Use a tape measure so you ensure you order the right amount of paper. The quality of your artwork also plays an important factor. Once you upload your design, if you see a "low quality" warning, it is because your image is too small and it won't look its best when printed. If this is the case, try scaling your image down, or applying the tile effect. There are so many amazing design options for uploading onto your borders. Repeat patterns look striking, as do creative collages and typography. Have fun creating the perfect design for your project. When it comes to hanging your borders, they are not limited to just walls. If you have stair risers, then why not jazz them up a bit and put some spring in your step by creating borders for your stairs? See our images for design inspiration.

Print guidelines & finishing
Print Guideline
What's the best resolution to print in?
We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally, your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi, this means that no resizing of your file occurs stopping any interpolation.
Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?
For multi-coloured or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.
Which colour model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?
We advise providing images in the RGB colour space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best colour results.What does this mean? In your editing software choose RGB as the working space, and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)
What does GSM mean?
Grams per Square Meter (GSM) is an international standard for measuring the weight of paper or fabric. GSM uses the weight of a square meter (1000 x 1000mm) as an indication of the weight and thickness of a given fabric. We class 20-100gsm as light (summer fabrics, gauzes and fine silks), 101-249 gsm as medium (most clothing fabrics) and 250+ gsm as heavy (upholstery fabrics, and other specialist fabrics).
What are bleed areas?
When designing your product, it’s best to make sure that your image is slightly larger than needed. In printing, the extra printed image is referred to as a “Bleed Area” or margin, and it is removed from the finished piece. A bleed area acts as a buffer for slight inconsistencies in the manufacturing process. however, it’s important to fill your bleed areas completely, or you may end up with white, unprinted strips along the edge of your finished product.
Do you print on garments a customer supplies?
Unfortunately not. All our garments are printed on flat fabric and sewn into finished products, which gives a better-finished result and all-over print. We test meticulously so that we know what gets the best results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, so if you have access to a heat press you can press your fabrics or flat garments easily.
Can you Align a Pattern or design across panels of a garment?
We always strive for the greatest accuracy when printing and constructing your garments. However, due to unavoidable stretch or movement of the fabric during the stitching process, we cannot guarantee perfect pattern registration across garment seams. We are generally accurate within 2-3mm, which is close enough for most patterns but may show slight issues with detailed geometric patterns.
Can I print my own Labels?
Most of our garments now come with printable label space for you to add your own company information and branding. If you would like to sew in your own labels, we also offer Printed Fabric Labels here.
How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?
With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water-based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colours and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfilment.
FAQ
Are the wallpaper borders easy to apply?
Very easy. You will receive hanging instructions with your order. The standard paper requires basic wallpaper paste for application, however the premium is water activated and pre-coated with adhesive, so you simply need to spray the wall and apply. We even have a peel and stick application self-adhesive paper.
How many different options of paper are there?
There are four different paper options for your wallpaper borders. Standard, premium and a self-adhesive. All have the same matte finish with a textured face, but the premium offers a slightly higher quality print detail and an opaque finish.
Do I need to use lining paper?
You only need to use lining paper if you opt for the standard option. If you don't have lining paper, you could always apply white paint before the borders. The premium option is 100% opaque.
