Why Choose Forbo MCT Linoleum?

Marmoleum is called the 40-year linoleum because it's highly durable and long-lasting in both residential and commercial applications. Its 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 MCT comes in several 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, 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.

Marmoleum Prices

The average cost of Forbo Marmoleum Tiles range from $3-4 per square foot which slightly higher than the more inexpensive option of vinyl tile flooring. However, linoleum if maintained properly can last for decades beyond cheaper vinyl options. Marmoleum prices will vary based on location and quantity. If you order tiles in bulk you can expect up to 20% off list prices.
