Creating better environments

From how they’re made to how they perform, Forbo Flooring Systems makes outstanding products that are truly sustainable.

Avoid waste
From the initial concept, Forbo’s premium homogeneous vinyl floor Sphera was developed to avoid unnecessary waste and to minimise the use of energy and raw materials. Producing Sphera at 2 mm in one step, without back sanding, reduces waste by 10-15%. Our internal 'back to the floor' recycling program ensures that all waste is reused on site in the backing of our heterogeneous vinyl flooring.

Save energy
Sphera is produced in one of the most modern and efficient plants for the production of homogeneous vinyl. It is produced with 100% green electricity with minimal impact on the environment.

Circular flooring ambition
Post-consumer waste represents a major challenge for the industry in terms of collection and transport as well as selection and processing. Forbo Flooring Systems is an active participant in the EU funded Circular Flooring project, which aims to establish a circular recycling process for plasticised PVC from post-consumer flooring waste.

Environmental Product Declaration
Forbo Flooring Systems was one of the first companies in the world with complete Environmental Product Declarations for our products, including additional information to show the impact on human health and eco toxicity.

Social accountability
We care for the people that touch our business, from employees to suppliers. That’s, most of our manufacturing sites in Europe are certified to SA8000®.
The SA8000 Standard is one of the world’s preeminent social standards, which aims to protect workers along each step of the supply chain.
