http://www.connexionfrance.com/Wallpaper-Metapaper-Wifi-mobile-phone-Grenoble-Fabien-Barros-Ahlstrom-13673-view-article.html Wallpaper blocks Wifi and phones May 08, 2012 A NEW wallpaper that can filter out Wifi waves has been developed by French researchers: and they say it could be priced the same as classic wallpaper. Pierre Lemaitre-Auger of the Grenoble Institut Polytechnique said the wallpaper - called Métapapier or Metapaper - would give people and businesses reassurance about electromagnetic radiation from Wifi and mobile phone signals. It has a treble purpose: shielding people from outside radiation, ensuring homes and offices' own Wifi signal is not being hacked or hijacked - and looking good. Developed by Grenoble INP Phd student Fabien De Barros and the Centre Technique du Papier, it uses a printed pattern of conductive silver ink that filters out specific frequencies such as the 0.9, 1.8 and 2.1 GHz of mobile phone signals or the 2.45 and 5.5 GHz of Wifi. However, the filters allow other waves such as FM radio or TV to pass through. The researchers said it could also help improve sound-proofing and would be used either as backing paper or as wallpaper but could also be used as part of floor-coverings or plasterboard. France uses about 60 million rolls of wallpaper a year and the Centre Technique du Papier estimated it could become a €30 million market for France alone. Métapapier will be marketed by Finnish company Ahlstrom, which has bought the rights. It should be on the market next year. A similar product was developed by researchers at BAE systems in 2004, but not brought to market. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

I wonder who it fares against 4g signals ? also what about the classic
induction problems with the metalised paper presume it needs a good earth ?? puk In a message dated 10/05/2012 20:01:32 GMT Daylight Time, [hidden email] writes: Is it for sale?

While it says "block" and "filter", what it probably does is reflect. So, if you can't forgo using something inside the house that radiates at the range this wallpaper "blocks", it wouldn't be a good idea at all. Imagine being in a room with a router WiFi and surrounded by these reflectors. So, this is an excellent idea only for people who understand the matter.

Also keep in mind, "people" glow with radiation. Just because we don't "see it" doesn't mean its not there. This is an often completely ignored factor. Radiation is radiation. They were using the meters to scan "people" for levels of radiation during Fukushima.
