Linoleum is a combination of cork, oil, and burlap. It is a union of substances that blend together naturally to form a floor that, point by point, is superior to any kind of floor that man has devised. To appreciate the advantages of a linoleum floor, you must understand the qualities of the natural products from which linoleum is made.

What the burlap gives This mixture of cork and oxidized line which Armstrong’s Linoleum is made has given architects and interior decorators an opportunity to suggest permanent linoleum floors that are artistically a part of the room itself. Well-chosen fs of linoleum blend with the color schemes of walls, furniture and draperies. Rugs are placed on these floors as on any per manent floor.
