Marmoleum is USDA-certified, 100% biobased. This natural linoleum floor covering is made from 97% natural raw materials, 70% of which are rapidly renewable, along with a 43% recycled content. The key raw materials used in its production include linseed oil, which comes from the flax plant seeds, wood flour as production waste from controlled forestry plantations and jute, a crop whose fibers provide the material for the membrane onto which the linoleum is calendared. Marmoleum's inherent anti-static properties repel dust and dirt, making it easy to clean, reducing exposure to allergens, and contributing to better indoor air quality. Marmoleum also features inherent antimicrobial properties that halt the breeding of harmful micro-organisms, including MRSA and C-difficile. Country of Manufacture: Ireland Sizes/Dimensions Marmoleum Cocoa is an ecologically produced to the following approximate dimensions: Thickness/Gauge --- 1/10" (2.5 mm) Backing --- Jute Width --- 79" (2 meters) Length --- 105’ (32 meters) Roll Size --- 77 square yards (64 square meters) Sold by the sq yard. 79" X 16.4"= 1 sq yard If you know the length you need in inches divide that by 16.4 and round up for sq yardage. Colors/Options Due to the way it's made, don't be surprised if your Marmoleum Sheet has a yellowish tint on it when it's delivered. This is oxidized linseed oil, which can color the surface in the final stage of manufacturing. The tint will disappear (usually within 24 hours) as soon as your floor is exposed to the light. Also, because linoleum is a natural product, there may be slight color and structural differences between production batches, samples and the delivered goods.

View: Marmoleum Sheet Installation Guidelines Care and Maintenance Marmoleum floors are easy to clean and maintain thanks to their durable Topshield2 finish. Marmoleum with Topshield2 is the only resilient flooring with an occupancy-ready finish. This means that at the time of installation, cleaning with a neutral pH cleaning solution is all that is necessary. The Topshield2 finish also provides exceptional performance against soiling, staining, scratching, and scuffing. Topshield2 has been designed to create a Marmoleum that meets the demands of everyday use and is even more resistant to dirt pick-up, less prone to wear and has improved resistance to scratches and stains, and thus creating a floor that demonstrates a lasting performance over time. We recommend waiting a minimum of five days following the installation before conducting initial cleaning or other wet cleaning procedures in order to allow the adhesive to dry and cure properly. The initial cleaning is done for new installations exposed to normal construction soil and traffic. Additional maintenance may be performed if necessary. Forbo offers a full line of cleaning products including a Neutral pH Cleaner, Spray Buff, Mop on Restorer, Heavy Duty Cleaner, Matte Floor Finish (for commercial use), Gloss Floor Finish (for commercial use), Adhesive Remover, & a Residential Floor Finish.
