RAL Quality Mark To meet the high standards of environmental compatibility set by consumers today more than 60 wallpaper manufacturers joined together in 1991 to form a quality association which subjects its products to regular monitoring. In collaboration with various institutions and authorities, strict, comprehensive quality regulations which go far beyond the legal requirements were laid down, which were subsequently recognized by the Deutsche Institut für Gütesicherung und Kennzeichnung e.V. (RAL). Compliance with the quality requirements in monitored constantly by the independent Fraunhofer Institute in Braunschweig. Only products which meet these high standards are awarded the RAL Quality Mark shown here. All of marburg’s wallcoverings bear the RAL Quality Mark, which means that the end consumer can concentrate completely on the appearance of the design when selecting the right wallcovering.
