Due to a new surface treatment called “Extreme xf Finish”, Tarkett has managed to reduce the cleaning and care effort for linoleum dramatically. The result is Linoleum xf, a product that expands the advantages of this kind of flooring such as high comfort and long product life by a property that will gain in importance in the future - easy cleaning and care.

The new surface protection from Tarkett offers not only excellent resistance against abrasion, stains and chemicals, but also allows for a reduction of maintenance costs by up to 30 percent. The costs for water, detergents and energy are even reduced by 50 percent. Initial care such as waxing or polishing is not required either.

This clearly added value is a major benefit when compared to traditional linoleum. After all, purchasing and laying a flooring is only a minor share of the costs arising over the entire product lifecycle. The major share of costs arises from maintenance, i.e. regular cleaning and care.

Linoleum xf revolutionises the market by offering very low lifecycle costs due to the reduced frequency and effort of cleaning and maintenance required. Compared with untreated linoleum flooring, the additional investment amortises within one year.
