Our unique hybrid flooring combines the benefits of textile and resilient flooring to give you the comfort of a high tech carpet tile and the durability of a resilient floor.
We are always looking for ways in which to improve our production processes and product constructions to make them more sustainable. Not only do our Flotex tiles contain 67% and Flotex sheet contains 22% post-industrial recycled content, (by weight), Flotex is 100% waterproof, which means you just need water and standard cleaning materials for an effective clean using minimal hazardous chemicals, which would have a detrimental effect on the environment.

Ground breaking both aesthetically and technically, the Flotex Sottsass collection is the result of a creative collaboration between Forbo Flooring and the Italian design studio, Sottsass Associati. The result is four exquisite designs, which include Terrazzo, Wool, Bacteria and Kasuri, that demonstrate a depth of detail and vibrancy of colour never seen before in Flotex.
This collection is borne out of the desire to work with an innovative flooring technology and its precision HD printing brings to life the avant-guard designs that clearly carry the Sottsass signature. The late Ettore Sottsass and his partner and head of studio, Christopher Redfern, have together created the four designs that comprise this Flotex collection, and it is manufactured using specially developed HD digital print technologies which set a new bench mark for rendering high quality images onto textile.
