Carnegie Introduces Surface IQ Wallcoverings

The wallcovering company Carnegie, maker of Xorel and other non-PVC wallcoverings, has introduced a line of polyethylene wallcoverings with an affordable price of $22.50 per yard ($24.20/m; net wholesale rate). The Surface iQ line, manufactured by Len-Tex Corporation, has been available directly from the manufacturer since 2005. Carnegie’s offerings include seven new patterns in a range of colors.

Surface iQ fabrics use only nonhalogenated, natural-clay fire retardants and are available with optional microperforations, recommended in humid climates, to reduce the risk of trapping moisture behind the wallcovering during the cooling season. Surface iQ passes the California Section 01350 indoor air emissions test and uses a non-arsenate antimicrobial additive as well as water-based inks free of heavy metals and chlorine. A standard cellulose and polyester backing is adhered to the textured polyethylene face, so the product installs with a standard vinyl wallcovering adhesive.
