Cleaning & Maintenance of Marmoleum floors

All our Marmoleum products have a Topshield finish which makes cleaning and maintenance easy. Dust wiping is a quick and easy way to keep your floor dust-free.

Regular use of Forbo Monel creates a good protection through a film, which inhibits the adhesion of dirt and is removed during the next maintenance action. In this way the original appearance of the floor is retained.

Daily cleaning

Remove dust and loose dirt regularly with a dust wiper

Remove stains with Monel and a slightly damp mop

Periodical cleaning

Clean the floor using Monel and a mop (0.25 l Monel / 10 l water)

Cleaning & Maintenance of Novilon / Novilux floors

Forbo Novilon and Novilux are protected by the strong protective finish of Diamond Seal and Diamond Seal XS. This makes cleaning and maintenance very simple indeed. All floors can be cleaned with the same simple method:
In normal use sweep or vacuum the floor to remove loose dirt and grit. Wash regularly afterwards with Forbo Monel and water (50 ml/10 l water) to remove spots and clean the floor.
After very intense use or a longer period of time you can also apply Monel film using Forbo Monel solution (250 ml/5 l water) and mop. Please allow floor to dry.
This method greatly reduces effort and time spent on keeping your floor in shape.
