Being transparent is one of the key elements of our sustainability strategy and therefore we like to have evidence that our floors are truly sustainable, both for the planet as well as for our health. Multiple reports have been created for this purpose.
• LCA: Life Cycle Assessment measures the environmental performance of a product.
• EPD: An Environmental Product Declaration contains the LCA for one particular product.
• HPD: Health Product Declaration specifies our products’ health impact.
• Our average carbon emission per square metre of product decreased by 70% from 2004-2023.
• Overall, 37% of our flooring is made up of recycled materials by weight, with some individual products containing as much as 75% recycled materials.
• All product categories offer adhesive-free flooring with 100% safe and traceable raw materials.
• 47 flooring ranges with independently reviewed Environmental Product Declarations (EPD).
• All EPDs have human health impact and eco-toxicity declarations.
• Over 10 years of annual sustainability reporting in adherence with Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guidelines.
Our long-term ambition is clear: to be your trusted partner for fully circular flooring solutions made from renewable materials. We want to make it easy for architects, contractors, installers and building owners alike to make the right circular flooring choice, helping them to lower their carbon footprint, reduce their waste production and maximise their use of renewable materials.
• Increase adhesive free sales volume which can be reused in the EU.
• Design for recycling: increase the recyclability of the products sold.
• All products have recycled content (preferably post-consumer).

As a key element in the circular economy is to reclaim materials and waste, we offer a number of schemes that help us achieve this goal.
From collecting and recycling clean installation waste to the reuse of our sampling materials, we aim to reduce the use of virgin materials, prevent waste and to reuse or recycle where possible.
We collect clean installation off-cuts of Forbo products through our ‘Back to the Floor’ programme.
It’s good for us as it provides material to recycle back into some of our products and it’s good for contractors as it saves money rather than landfilling it.
We collect Marmoleum, Eternal, Modul'up, Sarlon and Sphera smooth vinyl, Allura LVT, Novilon cushioned vinyl, Flotex and Tessera carpet tile off-cuts.
Collections are FREE and as landfill taxes are now £102.10 per tonne, you can make substantial savings by using Back to the Floor. To check how much you can save, just use our handy savings calculator:BTTF Calculator
To find out more just contact Back to the Floor on 0161 925 8760, backtothefloor@forbo.com

Our save a sample scheme encourages customers to return samples to us once they have served their purpose. This allows the samples to be re-used or recycled rather than thrown in the bin, and ultimately reduces the amount of material going to landfill.
Since the introduction of the ‘Save a Sample’ service in 2010 the scheme’s popularity has been growing steadily each year. The quality of the samples returned is so high that the vast majority of samples (approx. 85%) can be reused so reducing the need to order virgin sample material.
If you have samples you would like to return to us, please ring 0800 731 2369 and we can either supply you a pre-paid label (if the weight of the samples is under 5kg) or alternatively, if you have a large amount of samples to return, we can organise a collection of suitably packaged material.
