Marmoleum Flooring – Good, Clean And Green

When it comes to green flooring, it doesn’t get much better than Marmoleum – a flooring that is made from flax, sawdust, linseed oil and jute and with today’s retro styles, Marmoleum flooring is about as chic as it gets.

This eco-friendly and sustainable flooring offers you a unique style without any of the harmful chemicals that are  in other types of floors.  You may not realize it, but your current linoleum flooring emits gases that are toxic to you – and not only that but what do you think happens to it when you get a new floor?  You guessed it,  it sits in the landfill where it poisons the earth for many, many years!

Marmoleum flooring, on the other hand, is 100% biodegradable so there’s no worries about it sitting in a landfill and spoiling the planet but you probably wouldn’t have to worry about that too much anyway because the darn stuff is so durable that it lasts about 40 years!

Both comfortable and warm, Marmoleum is also a dust free flooring and it can be installed with solvent free adhesive  so you don’t have to worry about toxic VOC’s being emitted from the glue.

Other benefits include the fact that it has antibacterial properties so that it doesn’t harbor bacteria and it’s also antistatic.   It comes in tiles or sheets and is similar to linoleum coming in a myriad of colors and patterns.  Most often seen in kitchens and schools, Marmoleum flooring has an industrial look at is actually very popular in contemporary homes today.

So why not get a trendy and green kitchen with Marmoleum?  oh, and the best part is that it costs only about seven bucks a square foot!
