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.

We made it our mission to design and offer products that contribute in a positive way to the health and comfort of the individual by bringing nature in.
In a world where we spend on average 85% of our time indoors, it only feels natural to give full focus on improving the quality of our indoor environment. Marmoleum fits into biophilia designs for schools, healthcare institutions, workplaces, leisure centres and living spaces by creating the opportunity to bring the best from nature to our indoor surroundings.
Marmoleum contributes to each and everyone's well-being on many levels.
Marmoleum is designed to contribute to a safe, hygienic and comfortable environment. The floors are easy to clean, bacteriostatic, have antiviral properties and are allergy approved. Its tactility and beautiful colours influence all your senses. Thanks to its biobased raw materials and continuous life cycle improvements, we are able to create a climate positive floor that contributes to a sustainable future. Marmoleum floors improve the environmental and well-being score in building rating schemes such as LEED, BREEAM and the Well building standard.
With Marmoleum, you choose a sustainable floor that is climate positive (cradle to gate). From the origins to the final product, without buying carbon credits.
The construction industry is one of the major contributors of carbon emissions that cause climate change. Therefore, we are looking for ways to reduce our carbon footprint to combat global warming. The use of environmentally friendly building materials is becoming increasingly important when designing a new construction project.
Forbo aims to contribute to solving climate change issues by developing environmentally friendly flooring solutions.
Our Marmoleum floors are made from 98% natural raw materials such as linseed oil, wood flour, limestone, resin and jute. Marmoleum is unique as it has CO2 uptake in the product itself. The photosynthesis of the biobased materials used in Marmoleum provides CO2 uptake that exceeds the CO2 emissions caused by transportation and production processing. Therefore, Marmoleum is climate positive (or carbon negative) from cradle to gate.

Forbo uses Life Cycle Assessments to identify and continuously improve the sustainability performance of our floors. Our independently verified Environmental Product Declarations provide the information you need to make a sustainable decision. Read more about LCA and EPD.
