Factors for longevity and tips for the care of preserved moss walls & moss pictures

Moss walls and moss pictures have become increasingly popular in recent years, both for residential and commercial spaces. They not only add a natural and calming atmosphere to the room, but can also offer acoustic benefits. One of the most common questions buyers ask is how long a moss picture or moss wall will last. In this blog post, we'll list the factors that influence its lifespan and provide tips on how to best care for it.

Factors that influence the lifespan of a moss wall or moss picture:

1. Preserved moss: Using preserved moss in moss pictures and moss walls significantly extends their lifespan. The preservation process allows the moss to retain its color, texture, and freshness for many years without the need for watering or spraying. However, the decisive factor is quality—and this can vary greatly from manufacturer to manufacturer.

2. Suitable for indoor use only: Moss pictures and moss walls are primarily designed for indoor use, as they are better protected from extreme weather conditions in enclosed spaces, which can shorten their lifespan.

3. Do not water : Preserved moss does not require watering as it has already been treated with a special solution and retains its moisture.

4. Avoid direct and prolonged exposure to sunlight: To preserve the vibrant color of the moss, it should be protected from direct and prolonged sunlight. Indirect, natural, or artificial light is more suitable for the durability of the moss picture.

5. Avoid prolonged exposure to high humidity: Humidity above 70% should be avoided, as it can impair the durability of the preserved moss. A relative humidity of approximately 40-60% is ideal.

   

Tips for caring for preserved moss pictures and moss walls:

1. Choose the right location: Position the moss picture or moss wall indoors, away from direct sunlight and with a humidity of 40-60% to create optimal conditions for the preserved moss. The quality of the moss plays a crucial role here, too. While UV radiation is unforgivable for most mosses, there are higher-quality moss that are practically impervious to UV rays.

2. Careful cleaning: If necessary, thoroughly clean the surface of the moss by removing dust and dirt with a soft brush or microfiber cloth. Be careful not to apply pressure or damage the moss. Fact: Our high-quality moss pictures and moss walls are treated with a special preparation that gives them a slightly antistatic effect.

3. Avoid temperature fluctuations: Keep the room temperature between 12 and 28 degrees Celsius to ensure ideal conditions for the preserved moss. Extreme temperature fluctuations can affect the durability and appearance of the moss.

4. Ensure air circulation: Good air circulation helps the moss picture or moss wall look fresh and well-maintained over time. Occasional airing is beneficial for the moss and contributes to its longevity.
