Materials for Wallpaper, Wall Decals & Coordinating Fabric
American Decals prints wallpaper, murals, wall decals, and coordinating polyester fabric to order in Indiana, USA. We select materials for different finishes, installation methods, and decorating projects. Use this overview to explore our range, then check the available options on your chosen product.
Wallpaper & Murals
Our wallpaper range includes three installation methods:
- Peel & Stick: FABRIC and PREMIUM offer polyester fabric finishes with removable, repositionable adhesives. CANVAS offers an embossed vinyl texture with initial repositionability and a permanent adhesive bond.
- Easy-Hang PREPASTED: Smooth wallpaper with adhesive already applied to the back. Activate it with water following the supplied instructions.
- Traditional Unpasted: CLASSIC Traditional has a smooth finish, SIGNATURE Traditional has a subtle canvas texture, and GRASSCLOTH Traditional has a deeper grasscloth-inspired texture. All three require compatible wallpaper paste.
For detailed comparisons of texture, opacity, wall preparation, room suitability, and installation, read How to Choose the Right Wallpaper Material.
Wall Decals
Wall decals are individual decorative shapes or designs that let you arrange artwork on your wall. Depending on the product, options may include:
- Self-adhesive vinyl: A thin material with a smooth finish and a painted-on appearance.
- Self-adhesive fabric: A flexible material with a soft textile appearance and repositionability during installation.
Check each listing for its material and application method. Surface texture, paint, and preparation affect adhesion and removal. Follow our wall decal installation instructions and test a sample when available.
Coordinating Printed Polyester Fabric
We also print coordinating polyester fabric using designs offered in our wallpaper collection. This lightweight, soft knitted textile brings matching artwork into framed fabric art, hanging panels, and other decorative projects.
This fabric has no adhesive backing. It is separate from our Peel & Stick FABRIC wallpaper. Check the product listing for print dimensions, finishing details, and what is included, or contact us about coordinating fabric for your chosen wallpaper.
Different surfaces can affect printed color and appearance. Coordinating fabric and wallpaper are designed to work together, but their colors and finishes may not look identical. Compare physical samples when available.
Printed with GREENGUARD Gold Certified Inks
We use GREENGUARD Gold certified inks for our printed wallpaper, murals, wall decals, and coordinating fabric. This certification applies to the inks; material construction and properties vary by product.
A Material Collection That Continues to Evolve
We continually review our materials and introduce new options as suitable products become available. We may add, improve, replace, or discontinue materials over time, so we cannot guarantee that a material offered today will always remain available.
The options and descriptions on each product listing identify what is currently offered. For reorders, phased projects, or a specific material requirement, contact us before purchasing to confirm availability.
Start with a sample. Review the actual printed color, texture, and finish in your space. For adhesive products, test compatibility with your intended surface before ordering the full design.
