Wolf-Gordon Wallcovering: Lines, Specs and Natural-Fibre Options
What Wolf-Gordon makes, what its own specification sheets state, and where a natural fibre belongs on the same job. Facts about Wolf-Gordon are taken from its own website and linked below; Grasscloths does not represent the brand.
What Wolf-Gordon Makes
Wolf-Gordon's own navigation splits its catalog into Wallcovering, Wall Protection, Upholstery, Paint, Wink., Digital, Wood, GATHER Acoustical and Drapery. Within Wallcovering, the material-type filter lists Acoustical, Cork, Corkboard, Dry Erase, Faux Suede, Grasscloth/Paperweave, Linen/Linen Blend, Mica, Mylar, Natural/Synthetic Blend, Polyester/Polyester Blend, Polyethylene, Polyolefin/Polyolefin Blend, PVC Free, Rayon/Rayon Blend, Silk/Silk Blend, Vinyl and Wood Veneer — the pattern-style filter separately lists a "Grasscloth/Rustic Designs" group. A sample spec sheet (Bamboo, a Type II vinyl pattern) states the field set below.
| Line / filter (per wolf-gordon.com) | Category | Typical spec fields stated |
|---|---|---|
| Wallcovering — Vinyl (e.g. Bamboo, Type II) | Vinyl, Contract collection | Content, Backing, Width, Weight, Repeat, Hanging Information, Vinyl Type, Fire Rating (ASTM E84 class + flame-spread/smoke numbers), Cleaning Code |

Type II Vinyl or Natural Fibre: Which Does the Room Need?
| Area | Usual specification | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Corridors, back of house, wet areas | Type II vinyl, Class A | Scrub resistance and moisture tolerance; Type II is a weight grade (min. 13 oz/sq yd) under CCC-W-408 / ASTM F793 |
| Guest rooms, lobbies, restaurants, suites | Natural fibre with FR backing, ASTM E84 Class A on gypsum | Texture and warmth; specified by E84 class plus backing weight, not by Type |
Getting a Natural-Fibre Match for a Wolf-Gordon Specification
When the design intent calls for real grasscloth or sisal alongside a contract vinyl line, the specifier needs three things: a sample that matches the palette, an E84 report on the exact backing, and a run that stays batch-consistent across the property. Our design studio specs the fibre, weave and colour to your cut; a partner mill weaves a proof; production runs from 100 rolls with a per-batch lot certificate. The buyer or brand commissions the fire test for their market; we supply the samples and composition data the lab needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Grasscloths affiliated with Wolf-Gordon?
No. This page is an independent reference. Product facts are taken from the brand's own website and linked above.
Can a natural wallcovering meet the same fire class as a Type II vinyl?
Often yes on the flame-spread class: paper-backed grasscloth and sisal with a fire-retardant backing can reach ASTM E84 Class A on gypsum board. Type II is a separate durability grade for vinyl and does not apply to natural fibre.
What is the minimum for a custom colourway?
100 rolls, about 500 m², per colourway, after a woven proof you approve. Catalog patterns start at 50 rolls.
How long does a matched run take?
Proof in one to two weeks; production 4–6 weeks for grasscloth and sisal after approval and payment, plus freight.
