DNA is a proprietary wallcovering substrate—exclusive to fabric and wallcovering specialist Designtex—that promises the same characteristics and functionality as Type II vinyl, but in an environmentally friendly format, which is free of high-emitting chemicals such as polyvinyl chloride or phthalates. Instead, reclaimed wood fibers are fused with polyester and latex, creating a composite that is certified SCS Indoor Advantage Gold for low indoor-air emissions.
