How our Wallpaper is made

The manufacture of Little Greene wallpapers employs a range of traditional and modern print techniques, each chosen to best serve the reproduction, scale, surface quality and gravitas of the individual pattern.

Some of our production methods haven't changed in hundreds of years. First commissioned in 1892, the machine used to surface-print many of our papers is capable of placing up to twelve colours over a variety of grounds. These include matte, mica and metallics, bringing a contemporary subtle interplay of light to a historic pattern.
