    Marmoleum Striato

    The renewed Marmoleum Striato collection is a functional, durable and timeless linoleum flooring range that allows you to create spaces with a natural touch where you truly feel at home. The striped Striato design creates a soft, comfortable look and can also function as a guiding and connecting element between areas within a building.

    The different designs are easy to combine, providing great opportunities to accentuate particular areas within a space, such as waiting areas in a large lobby or a play corner in a classroom.

Environment

We take the green road

Marmoleum, Forbo's brand of linoleum, is a natural floor made from 97% natural raw materials, 70% of which are rapidly renewable, along with a 43% recycled content. This makes Marmoleum THE sustainable flooring choice.

Natural ingredients
The main raw materials used in the manufacture of linoleum are linseed oil from the seeds of the flax plant, wood flour as production waste from controlled forest plantations and jute, a crop whose fibers provide the material for the membrane onto which the linoleum is calendared.

These raw materials are obtained from their natural habitat right where they grow and renew, often in just 12 months time. Jute and flax are annual crops that can be harvested just like wheat or corn. The extraction of rosin is a continuous process, while wood flour, a waste product of the wood industry, comes from European production forests. Limestone is available in abundance.

Climate positive product range
Because of its unique properties, its natural ingredients and its modern manufacturing process, Marmoleum is a climate positive product range, measured from cradle to gate. Find out more about the sustainable character of Marmoleum on our Climate Positive section.
Or see in the Marmoleum video how our Marmoleum floors are made by nature.

NCS & LRV

NCS & LRV values

LRV
In architecture, Light Reflectance Value (LRV) is a measure of the percentage of visible and usable light that is reflected from a surface when illuminated by a light source. The LRV can be linked to a number of decisions on which a colour can be chosen. The approximate LRV of a colour indicates the amount of visible light that a colour will reflect. Black has a light reflectance value of 0% and absorbs all light. White has a light reflectance value of 100% and keeps a building light and cool. It also links to the use of electricity where lighter colours need less lighting, which is a direct saving for the environment. All Forbo products carry a light reflection value, which can be found in the text next to the enlargement of the tabletop.

NCS
NCS colour coding describes the colour of any material. With numeric colour codes, so called NCS Notations, such as NCS S 1080-Y70R, any colour can be described precisely. NCS has defined 1950 standardised colours at every 10th step of the colour space to represent the entire colour space. Each notation's colour sample is visually identical to any other colour sample of the same notation, whether it is a standardised colour or a colour in between the 1950 standard colours. This way you can find matching flooring colours with other coloured items in a room.

The 'Natural Colour System' NCS has been developped in order to indentify the colour value, its intensity and hue for a product. By using the NCS maesurement system, colours and colour groups can be identified and matched regardless of the material that has been used. In this way colour coordinates for different aspects of the interior of a building can be determined. All Forbo Flooring products carry an NCS code, which can be found next to the enlargement of the tabletop and in our downloadcenter.
