Lady Marmoleum
I just got a hot lead on Marmoleum floors by Forbo. Forbo is a Swedish company and they've been making Marmoleum for the last 100 years. Generically, Marmoleum is linoleum; the original resilient floor. It's making a serious comeback due to the innovations and energetic marketing of the Forbo company.
In Forbo's capable arms, linoleum branded as Marmoleum is fresh, new and dare I say it? Hip.
I mean, have a look at these items. Lower East Side tenements do no longer come to thoughts after I see those pics and I apprehend why Forbo disbursed with the phrase linoleum.
Marmoleum is hip and now because it's shiny and new, but it's also hip and now as it's inexperienced and sustainable. It's made today the manner it changed into always made. From linseed oil, wooden flour and rosins which might be pressed into a jute backing. It's non-toxic, VOC-unfastened, biodegradable when the time comes and in reality indestructible till then.
Due to its linseed oil content material, it receives tougher the longer its uncovered to air and it is also certainly anti-microbial. What's no longer to love?
You can discover neighborhood sources for Marmoleum through Forbo's website. If your market's whatever like mine, it is now not too difficult to discover. You can anticipate to pay between $5.50 and $7.50 a square foot for materials.
