Bathroom Wallpaper

Looking for bathroom wallpaper in South Africa that will cope with steam? Start with the finish. Our materials guide lists Peel & Stick (from R289/m²) and DuraMatte Fabric (R390/m²) as waterproof and washable, so use one of these in any bathroom. Traditional Non-Woven is not waterproof and is not suitable for bathrooms, even a guest loo. Whatever you choose, keep wallpaper at least 30 cm from a direct water source, never inside the shower, and make sure the room has a window or extractor fan. A guest loo or powder room has far less humidity, so it can take a bolder design on every wall. This collection includes marble and stone effects, tile-effect wallpaper, leafy plant designs, calm florals and graphic prints, or choose bathroom murals for one large scene.

Small loos are perfect for bold choices: dramatic florals, tropical leaves, dark backgrounds or black and white graphics. Because the space is small, you need little wallpaper to make a big impression.
