The story behind Marmoleum

What is Marmoleum?

Marmoleum is our worldwide linoleum brand, which is known for its natural origin, durable character, versatility in its application and easiness to clean and install. Forbo Flooring Systems introduces a new Marmoleum Marbled collection, containing five different natural marbled structures.

Because of its special characteristics Marmoleum Marbled is the perfect flooring solution for almost all application areas, like healthcare flooring, school floors, hospitality flooring, retail floors and so on.

Why is Marmoleum so natural?

Plants are the source of Marmoleum floors, as they grow they ultimately provide the natural ingredients for linoleum. The flax plant flowers produce linseed from which the vegetable oil is extracted. Rosin, which is responsibly extracted from re-planted pine forests, is combined with the linseed oil to form the very essence of linoleum.

Limestone and wood flour - residue from the recycled materials from the forestry industry - provide substance to the linoleum, while the fibres from the jute plant are used for the jute mesh carrier on which linoleum is calandered. Pigments color the floor and give it its characteristic visual.

Antibacterial activity

One very specific and unique characteristic of linoleum floorings is its natural antibacterial properties that are inherent to the use of linseed oil and rosin as raw materials. Third party laboratory research* shows that Marmoleum floors restrain and reduces the activity of common bacteria including Ecoli and MRSA, thus enhancing the hygienic performance of the floor.

Forbo Flooring has created 5 different structures within the new Marmoleum Marbled collection. On this page we will explain each sub brand in more detail. If you want to see all structures and colors in one overview, please go to the Marmoleum Marbled overview page.

Fresco

Fresco has a strong palette of subtly blended tone-on-tone items each creating a fresh, delicate and balanced aesthetic. The soft contrast of its refined marbled structure gives a gentle feel which sets the stage for calm and soothing interiors. The softness of Fresco enables it to sit well next to all Marbled as well as Striato items.

Real

Developed to create choice, Real can be mixed together or combined with other Marmoleum designs to provide more imaginative compositions.

Splash

Marmoleum Splash is a new design in Forbo's Marmoleum portfolio. From a distance Splash appears light grey with a slight nuance in tone, yet from up close Splash is an overall light grey with hints of surprising colors peeking through. This modern and playful design is ideal for use on its own but can also act as a connector between the more classic marbled and uni-patterned visuals in the collection.

Terra

Our most recently developed blend is Terra. A close, tight and highly contrasting structure inspired by igneous rock types. Terra combines a sophisticated small-scale marbled structure with great soil hiding properties. Terra offers an authentic color mix creating an effect that is very versatile and combines well with other items in the Marmoleum collection. Terra's good appearance retention makes it ideal for use in high traffic areas and provides a natural feel to any environment.
