A wall covering is a type of material, such as wallpaper, that is used to adorn the inside walls of a structure. Wall covering protects the wall surface from accidental stains or scratches while also giving bare walls a sense of quality and grandeur. They also assist in neutralizing and personalizing the interior with the use of various colors and patterns. These covers are very inexpensive. Residential and commercial applications are the two most frequent types of wall coverings. Residential wall coverings are mostly utilized in homes and small businesses to enhance space aesthetics and express personal style. Due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, countries had to enforce lockdown that halted the progress of construction of new properties and households. Due to that, the demand for wall coverings decreased as consumers have no interest in covering their walls with fancy pieces of vinyl or wallpapers.
