 Back To Nature With Forbo’s New Novilon Range

Forbo Flooring’s new Novilon collection offers an ideal way to introduce a natural look into your home: Combining the warmth of rustic wood effects with the comfort of a cushioned vinyl, the Nova Wood range draws on conventional looks and updates them for 2011. From warm beech and chestnut versions to more earthy looks such as blackened oak, the realistic finishes combine elegance and simplicity without compromising on practicality. The Novilon Nova Wood in our picture comes with a 20-year guarantee and the hard-wearing Diamond Seal finish, which protects against scuffs and scratches, makes it perfect for family living. It also benefits from Aquagrip slip resistant technology and a Noviclean top layer for easy cleaning.
