Linoleum Floor Tiles - Tough and Hardwearing

For contemporary home decor buy tough linoleum flooring tiles with the century old formula of linseed oil, powdered cork and organic materials. Mixed without synthetic compounds this durable and natural floor covering is comfortable and versatile as well as environmentally friendly.

Homeowners can install this highly functional and increasingly popular product in high traffic areas like the kitchen or family room since the surface does not show scratches and scuffs due to its resilience and flexibility. Other advantages include the fact that lino is waterproof, does not burn easily and won't generate static electricity.

Because of its performance, linoleum floors are recommended for installation in commercial buildings such as business offices and institutions.

Improve indoor air quality by installing naturally anti-bacterial linoleum sheet flooring. No harsh chemicals are used in the manufacture or maintenance of linoleum tiling and less contaminants are released than with vinyl or carpeting.

Use low emission adhesives to ensure fewer harmful pollutants. For style choose linoleum tiles in a wide range of patterns and colors or have a professional installer create inlaid designs on site.

It is important not to have linoleum floor tiles installed where moisture can harm them such as on top of uncured concrete or unprepared subfloors. Do not expose linoleum flooring to strong acids, alkalis or petroleum solvents that can cause cracking, shrinking and possible discoloration. It is best to use minimal water and neutral detergents during cleaning although proper sealants and finishes should minimize damage.
