Given the theme of Claire's designs, it goes without saying that we are keen to minimise the environmental impact of our manufacturing wherever possible, without compromising quality. We are happy to share the following information on how — and from what — our products are made.
Manufacturers
We work with small, family-run operations based in the north-eastern United States, with an emphasis on using low-impact, premium quality materials and methods and minimising waste wherever we can. Because our products are printed to order, we are able to avoid excessive use of resources by manufacturing only as much as you need, and shipping it directly from our production facilities to ensure it makes the shortest journey and thus the lightest carbon footprint possible.
Materials
Wallpaper
Our standard repeat patterns are available on traditional clay-coated paper:
- The industry standard for decades, this ground material's smooth matte finish offers a high-quality, traditional look and feel.
- Composed of responsibly sourced, elemental chlorine-free fibre
- Digitally printed to eliminate ink runoff, using aqueous pigments so non-toxic you could drink them — if you were very thirsty
- FSC Certification guarantees responsible use of forest resources as certified by a third party
- Class A Fire-rated based on the ASTM-E84 standard testing for smoke generation and flame spread
- Suitable for residential and low-traffic commercial locations
- Water-based, Titanium Dioxide clay coating offers superior opacity and strippability
- Four- to six-week lead time
- Made in the USA
