Linoleum and the environment

Composed of 98% natural, bio-sourced or mineral materials, linoleum is our most ecological flooring! Also incorporating materials that are recycled and/or 100% recyclable, it falls squarely within a circular economy approach.

Where's the proof? It has received the highly sophisticated Cradle to Cradle Silver certification.
