The sustainable flooring choice
Forbo’s Marmoleum is created from an average of 97% natural raw materials.
No surprise then that it's the world’s leading sustainable resilient flooring.
The weighted average of Forbo's Marmoleum product range is also climate positive (cradle to gate) without offsetting.

And for customers looking for a ‘natural’ entrance system, we offer Nuway Tuftiguard with Bamboo scraper bars. Bamboo is a sustainable grass species that is one of the fastest growing plants on earth.
