How do I correctly calculate the quantity of wallpaper to order?

For each MaVoix wallpaper, which is printed to order, it is essential to accurately measure your wall and apply a technical margin of at least 10 cm on each side.
Step 1 – Measure the wall Use a rigid or laser meter:

  • Net width of the wall
  • Net height of the wall
  • For irregular walls, consider the highest point and widest section

Step 2 – Add technical margins

  • 10 cm on the left
  • 10 cm on the right
  • 10 cm on top
  • 10 cm on the bottom
         = Total of +20 cm in width and +20 cm in height

Step 3 – Calculate the number of panels based on the chosen substrate Each substrate has a specific roll width (e.g., 60 cm, 100 cm, 120 cm, etc.). Height is custom-cut based on your project.

Example: wall 400 cm × 300 cm

  1. Net size: Width: 400 cm Height: 300 cm
  2. Add margins: Final width: 420 cm Final height: 320 cm
  3. If you choose a substrate 82 cm wide (e.g., SETA): 420 cm ÷ 82 cm = 5.12 → round up to 6 panels The wall will be printed on 6 numbered panels, each 82 cm wide and 320 cm high, for full coverage.
