Why should I choose Marmoleum Cocoa over other standard linoleum ranges?

Marmoleum Cocoa features real, textured cocoa shells blended directly into the sheet. This creates a highly unique, contemporary look and a slightly tactile feel underfoot that completely stands out from standard smooth marbled or linear linoleum designs.

Does the inclusion of real cocoa shells make the floor harder to clean?

Not at all. Even though the cocoa shell pieces give the floor a beautiful natural texture, the surface is completely sealed with Topshield Pro. Dirt cannot embed itself into the husks, making daily sweeping and a damp mop perfectly effective.

Does this floor smell like chocolate or cocoa after installation?

No. While it uses genuine shells from the chocolate manufacturing process, the raw materials are thoroughly treated and bonded with linseed oil during production. It carries only the standard, mild natural linseed scent that disappears shortly after fitting.

How does Marmoleum Cocoa perform against daily scuffs and heavy foot traffic?

Excellently. Carrying a Class 43 Heavy Industrial certification, the 2.5mm solid core is incredibly dense. The scattered granular pattern of the cocoa husks is also brilliant at hiding minor footprints and dust in busy public areas.

Is Forbo Marmoleum Cocoa safe for underfloor heating systems?

Yes. It is fully approved for use with underfloor heating systems up to a maximum surface temperature of 27°C, transferring heat naturally and smoothly across the room.
