To weld or not to weld?

In most of the cases welding a Marmoleum floor is not required. Skilled installers can make perfect joints without using a welding cord. With a proper Marmoleum installation, you will have a water resistant floor. However, sometimes local laws or regulations could make that you need to make sure you put a welding cord between two sheets.

For both situations Forbo Flooring offers the best solutions. Visit our Net fit or welding installation page to get more information on installations without welding.
