Linoleum is made primarily from natural, renewable resources, which distinguishes it as a sustainable material with minimal environmental footprint throughout its lifecycle. Linoleum has a significantly lower environmental impact compared to synthetic flooring materials like vinyl. The production of linoleum requires less energy than synthetic alternatives, and it is also highly durable and can last for 20–40 years with proper care. This reduces the need for frequent replacements, minimizing waste and resource consumption over time. So – please take extra care of me, I am going to live for a very long time!

Did you know? The so-called Sustainable Development Goal 12: 'Responsible Consumption and Production' could be seen as encouraging the use of linoleum in construction, supporting the shift to environmentally responsible material choices!
