Reliable, recognizable and practical

The high quality of Forbo Flooring needlefelt is based on more than 40 years of experience in the production and supply of this hard-wearing floor covering. It is available in 3 qualities, designed to meet different requirements.

Extremely robust
• Wear-resistant performance approved in class 33 according to EN 1307.
• GUT seal of approval for “contaminant-tested textile floor coverings”.
• Withstands heavy use, such as castor chairs in offices or wheeled suitcases in airports.

Sustainable
• Our needlefelt backing consists of 100% recycled polyester.
• The high production quality ensures a long lifespan for the floor, which therefore does not need to be replaced regularly.
• Our high quality polyamide fibres are designed to provide additional protection against dirt and soiling, saving on cleaning costs and contributing to a sustainable building.

Noise reduction
Noise reduction levels between 20 dB and 22 dB, meaning less ambient noise, ideal for use in places where a quite atmosphere is desired, such as offices.

Ultimate functionality

The Forbo needlefelt range is available in 3 qualities designed to meet different requirements: 750 g/m² fibre weight (Forte), 600 g/m² (Markant) and 500 g/m² (Akzent).

Forte
With a total thickness of 6.5 mm, a 100% polyamide fibre structure and a fibre weight of 750 g/m², Forte sheet is our premium needlefelt flooring range.
