| Forbo introduces new circular Marmoleum Cocoa collection! |
Hazleton, PA, June 23, 2023 – In today’s world, it is of ever-growing importance to ensure a circular economy with products that are developed and manufactured to be recycled and reused for a new life, while at the same time preventing and sequestering carbon emissions. Our new circular Marmoleum Cocoa collection does just that, providing the best of circularity in a range of uniquely beautiful colors that are carbon neutral and climate positive from cradle to gate, without offsets.
Marmoleum Cocoa is manufactured from 97% natural raw materials, such as flax seeds, jute, and rosin; and 43% recycled content including upcycled cocoa husk waste from the chocolate manufacturing industry. What’s more, of this recycled content, 33% is made up of industry and installation waste, and now, for the first time in our history, end-of-life recycled Marmoleum content.
The Marmoleum Cocoa range includes 6 brand new colors, including a refined green-grey Eucalyptus shade, coppery Salted Caramel, and muted blue Indigo Milk. Forbo’s Topshield Pro finish provides Marmoleum Cocoa with proven performance, ensuring long-lasting appearance retention, improved stain-resistance, and a smoother surface for easier cleaning. All the while maintaining Marmoleum’s naturally inherent antistatic and antimicrobial properties.
