December 9, 2019 / by Violet & Anna / Leave a Comment

The anxiety and interest in green flooring use erupted among users for health reasons. It covers the aspects of material used for the flooring, the installation application, method of safe cleaning, its effects on the indoor environment and after it becomes redundant its recycling, and reuse. Linoleum flooring outdo in all these aspects. It is among the greenest flooring alternative that an informed client can make.

Linoleum has evolved a lot from the time of inception in 1860. At that time, it was used in kitchens, hallways, commercial places and high traffic regions. It was invented by Frederick Walton an English man. He later patented it. The Latin word linum means flax and oleum translating into oil. Linoleum has since then gone through many innovations. One such example is embossed linoleum which appear as carved wood.

It is no longer dull and colourless. Multicolour choices are easily available. Moreover, it comes in smooth surface and polished to shine. In its natural format it is grainy matte. Through applications the surface can be made smooth and polishing gives it a sheen. Linoleum is durable, affordable antimicrobial and green or biodegradable.

The renewable constitutes that go in its making includes linseed oil, wood flour, tree resins, jute, cork dust, grinded limestone, and natural pigments. Linoleum is carbon neutral when it is incinerated it creates energy which equals the energy required to create new linoleum. Now adhesive which is non-toxic solvent free with low VOC are easily available in the market. Keep the room well ventilated and adhere to manufacturer’s instructions. In floating linoleum tiles use eco-friendly sealer to begin with and follow it up yearly. A well looked after linoleum need not be changed for as long forty years. Once thrown it gets into closed-loop system of energy production. In landfill it decomposes without emitting toxic gases in the environment.

In present times linoleum comes as sheets, snap together tiles with cork backing, and glue together tiles with backed by polyester to keep it stable. There are products in the market that keep the linoleum floor clean without adversely affecting the environment and lessening your life. Just clean the floor through sweeping, mopping, or else vacuuming. Mild natural liquid soap with warm water removes stains and brings back shine. Greener quality of wax like beeswax is good for buffing. It is safe for people creatures, air, water and soil.

Another option in flooring is environmentally friendly rubber flooring. These are manufactured from recycled rubber like old rubber car tyres. Synthetic rubber should be avoided. Rubber flooring are designed in such a way that they add padding below the feet. These versatile flooring can be used with ease in places where foot traffic is voluminous such as in kitchens, playrooms, hospitals etc. Rubber flooring are water resistant, lasting low-maintenance affordable slip resistant and resilient. They absorb impact and do not crack. Rubber flooring add beauty to the room through plenty of choices in shape size and colours. You can pick from interlocking tiles, sheets or square edged tiles.
