Linoleumilevy

Linoleumilevy is a Finnish term referring to a type of floor covering. It is made from natural, renewable materials such as linseed oil, cork dust, wood flour, and tree resins, often on a backing of jute or canvas. The manufacturing process involves oxidizing the linseed oil, which then reacts with other ingredients to create a durable, flexible material. Linoleumilevy is known for its environmental friendliness due to its natural composition and biodegradability.

This flooring material has been used for over a century and is recognized for its resilience, longevity, and ease of maintenance. It is naturally anti-static and anti-bacterial, making it a hygienic choice for various environments, including homes, schools, and healthcare facilities. Linoleumilevy is available in a wide range of colors and patterns, offering design flexibility. It can be installed in sheets or tiles. Over time, linoleumilevy develops a patina, which is considered a desirable characteristic by many. Its production and use are often associated with sustainability and a reduced environmental impact compared to synthetic flooring alternatives.
