French flooring label Tarkett has just launched a new collection dubbed Lino Materiale, which is comprised of entirely recyclable linoleum. It is made by the brand's design manager, specifically, Valerie Pavard. Since the brand's launch over a century ago, its linoleum has been constructed from a range of naturally-based ingredients.
To pay homage to the brand's material roots, it brings cork to the surface of the material. Tarkett speaks about the project, "The restorative effects of organic materials in the built environment are widely recognised. Designed to reflect the intriguing irregularities of nature, each roll of Lino Materiale is unique, enriching indoor educational and commercial spaces with the calming textures and tactility of the outdoors."
