CREATING BETTER ENVIRONMENTS

-Our Eternal Original floors contain approximately 20% recycled content in the total mass of the product, which is specifically used in the backing, where it cannot affect the look or quality of the product. Like all Forbo vinyl, Eternal Original is 100% phthalate free.

-We produce all our vinyl in Europe where it meets the highest possible current and future REACH compliance standards for chemical content. -100% of electricity comes from renewable sources and our vinyl production sites are part of an effective environmental management system, achieving ISO 14001 certification.-We use smart material constructions and durable finishes for our vinyl. A micro-embossing technology reduces the need for chemical cleaning and increases the floor’s lifespan.

ABOUT ETERNAL ORIGINAL

GOOD PERFORMANCE IN ALMOST ALL CIRCUMSTANCES

Eternal is a high quality heterogeneous sheet vinyl floor covering that fits all general purpose needs in various segments and applications.

Forbo Ethernal Original Heterogeneous Vinyl Flooring System

PRODUCT CONSTRUCTION

Eternal is created around a nonwoven, fully impregnated, glass fleece core which provides dimensional stability and allows a lean-development approach, resulting in a sustainable compact, high tech base. Adding to stability and determining the high quality standard of Eternal is the optimized calandered backing; a firm yet flexible layer to allow easy installation, even when coving is required or in wetroom applications. The unique and innovative embossed wear layer ensures maximum wear resistance and provides optimal appearance retention.

AUTHENTIC DESIGNS

All of the Eternal designs are true originals, created by an in-house team of expert designers who translate the latest trends in classic, contemporary as well as modern and advanced flooring designs that cannot be distinguished from their original material expressions, like wood and concrete.

PUR PEARL AND PUR WOOD PEARL

For Eternal Original Forbo uses it’s proven PUR Pearl lacquering protection technique. The application technique for the lacquering layer assures an even amount of lacquering both on top and in the deeper areas of the embossing. It prevents the surface collecting dirt and is the best guarantee for quality and gloss consistency that ensures low maintenance costs. The mat embossed lacquer layer ensures the highest level of both chemical- and scuff resistance.

PHTHALATE FREE

All Eternal floor coverings are created with the highest environmental stands in mind using the best qualified virgin materials as well as controlled recycled content creating a closed loop production. In addition all items in the Eternal range are phthalate free.
