Forbo introduce the new Marmoleum Global 3 eco-friendly flooring range.
May 8th, 2009
Forbo has launched the new Marmoleum Global 3. This eco-friendly flooring collection has several new looks, adding to its position as the world’s largest linoleum colour and style selection.
Now available in Australia, Global 3 draws the Marmoleum, Artoleum and Walton ranges into one complete set. With more tile options and the best ecological performance of any resilient floor covering, this portfolio is sure to make its mark.
‘Designing the future’ was the theme chosen by Forbo, which curved the design angle for this scheme towards an exceptional ‘whole life performance’ offering both economic and enviromental benefits.
Global 3 presents a low cost of ownership and all products are GECA certified, attracting maximum points for green star ratings.
A total of 51 new colours are available, and gradations from light to dark plus saturation in all shades offers the broadest possible design options.
New attractions include the award-winning ‘Artoleum striato’, which has a directional effect that enhances the illusion of length in any space. Marmoleum fresco’s fresh, calm greens are ideal for healthcare while the stylishly embossed Walton crocodiles offer leather-like tones to suit a chic setting.
Appearance of all products is retained thorough the use of Topshield, which also facilitates maintenance time and cost.
