Lightweight Biodegradable Wall Tiles

So depending on whether it’s old and ugly wallpaper that you want to cover up or if you just want to add some sculptural dimension and depth to a boring wall, these lightweight wall tiles or wall panels might just be your solution.

They’re molded from a material called “bagasse” that is one of the world’s most renewable resources, yet they're also durable, biodegradable and environmentally friendly too, so you can feel good about using them in almost any application. And any leftover trimmings or scraps can easily be recycled with other paper products, or composted, because of their biodegradable characteristics.

Even the way these tiles are shipped is well thought out, since they “nest” compactly inside each other, so they ship together in low volume sized cartons and can easily be handled by almost any small parcel carrier.

These Stitch Wall Flats are the first product that caught my eye, because they’re slightly reminiscent of the old subway tiles, but with an added modern and sculptural look. This style is sold by the box and each box contains 10 tiles that cover approximately 22 square feet.
