Climate positive

Marmoleum: eco-friendly floor

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.
