Why Choose Acoustic Marmoleum?
Marmoleum Acoustic has a total thickness of 4mm and reduces impact sound by 14 dB. It is a twinlayer linoleum built up from 2mm of Marmoleum and 2mm Corkment backing. Using Marmoleum Acoustic reduces installation costs as it can be installed in one go, avoiding the need to first lay Corkment and then Marmoleum. Marmoleum Acoustic is available in six colours.
Marmoleum Decibel is 3.5mm thick and provides the highest reduction of impact sound by 17dB; the acoustic performance is achieved by laminating 2.5mm Marmoleum onto a 1mm thick layer of polyofine foam.

With Marmoleum, you choose a sustainable floor that is climate positive (cradle to gate). From the origins to the final product, without buying carbon credits.
The raw materials used for creating Marmoleum are rapidly renewable and have absorbed such an amount of CO₂ during the time the plants, trees, and crops have grown, that this amount of CO₂ exceeds the amount of CO₂ that is emitted during the production process of linoleum. Our Marmoleum is produced in a modern, energy efficient environment. We produce with 100% green electricity derived from the sun and wind, not adding any CO₂.
All this results in a climate positive, natural, circular floor covering product.
Thanks to its biobased raw materials and continuous life cycle improvements, every square meter of our Marmoleumflooring made from cradle to gate removes 446 grams of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, without offsetting. In addition, Forbo Flooring Systems Australia has partnered with Carbon Positive Australia to plant native Australian trees and shrubs to help restore Australia's native habitats. Not as an offset program, rather as regeneration.
Marmoleum fits into any sustainable interior. We have a choice: by using durable materials in our homes, offices, schools, trains, hospitals and shops, we can create better environments!
