Discover the Durability and Versatility of Naturally Resilient Flooring by Forbo
____
Flooring is an essential element in any space, be it a home, office, healthcare facility, retail, or commercial property. Flooring not only serves a functional purpose but also plays a significant role in defining the first impression, aesthetics, and overall ambiance of a room. One flooring solution that has been gaining popularity for its sustainability, durability, and design versatility is Forbo Flooring Systems.
Forbo, a global leader renowned for its commitment to environmentally friendly and high-quality flooring solutions, offers an extensive range of options. From linoleum and vinyl floor coverings to entrance flooring systems, modular carpet tiles, needlefelt coverings, and innovative washable textile flooring known as Flotex, Forbo has earned its place as a frontrunner in the industry.
What is Marmoleum?
Marmoleum, Forbo's brand for linoleum, is a floor made from natural raw materials. The key raw materials used in linoleum production include linseed oil, which comes from the flax plant seeds, wood flour as production waste from controlled forestry plantations, and jute, a crop whose fibers provide the material for the membrane onto which the linoleum is calendared.
Marmoleum is a type of linoleum flooring known for its eco-friendly properties, performance, and exceptional design possibilities. The Forbo manufacturing process is a “climate-positive cradle to gate" - meaning any carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted is balanced by the CO2 removed in the growing of its natural ingredients.

Beyond its eco-friendly credentials, Marmoleum is also a champion in terms of health and hygiene. It's entirely free from plastics and harmful ingredients, making it a safe choice for both residential and commercial spaces. Moreover, its bacteriostatic properties effectively inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, adding an extra layer of cleanliness and safety to any environment.
