Natural linoleum tile in classic, marbelized structure

Forbo Marmoleum Dual Tile is a natural linoleum that offers a safe and sustainable alternative to vinyl, VCT or laminate tile flooring. It's a chemical-free, eco-friendly flooring made from rapidly renewable and bio-based materials that comes in either 13" x 13" or 20" x 20" tiles, with a thickness of 2.5 mm.

Marmoleum is called the 40-year linoleum because it's highly durable and long-lasting in residential and commercial applications. It's through-body color hides scratches and is easily reparable. The TopShield finish also protects the surface, making it easy to maintain with a damp mop.

Marmoleum Dual tile comes in 30 marbelized colors from natural to bright. This makes it a beautiful green flooring choice for kitchens, rec rooms, bedrooms, living rooms, basements and offices.

The sustainability of Marmoleum from “field to field” (flax field to compost pile) is the most transparent and sustainable of any flooring material. As such, Marmoleum carries more environmental certifications that are third-party, independent and LCA-based (life cycle assessment of multiple attributes), than any other flooring material.

Marmoleum has, through clear third-party, publicly-disclosed and verifiable documentation, the lowest environmental footprint of any manufactured flooring material. Sustainability has been integrated into every step of the process, from supply chain, through manufacturing, to installation and use, and finally end of life.

Other Marmoleum 'tile' products include DIY Marmoleum Click Classic and Marmoleum Click, both floating floors, and a commercial 2 mm Marmoleum Composition Tile (MCT).
