Taiga Marmoleum Roll — Soft Warm Green Flooring Inspired by Boreal Forests
Taiga takes its name from the vast boreal forests of the northern hemisphere — the world's largest land biome, characterized by soft grey-green lichen, pale birch trunks, and filtered winter light. As part of the Forbo Marmoleum Roll Solid Concrete collection, taiga is a muted, soft warm green floor color that captures that same quality of quiet, organic calm. Supplied in 2.5mm thickness, 200cm width, and 33m per roll, taiga suits residential and commercial use environments equally well.
Taiga is a softer, more muted green than pine forest — closer to a grey-sage than a vivid botanical green — and it is precisely this restraint that makes taiga such a versatile and enduring modern flooring choice. It works in biophilic design schemes, Japandi interiors, wellness studios, residential bedrooms and living rooms, and commercial spaces where the design intent seeks a gentle connection to the natural world rather than a dramatic botanical statement. Taiga pairs beautifully with pale birch, raw linen, white plaster, and aged stone.
The glue-down installation of taiga in the Marmoleum Concrete collection produces a seamless floor that brings the subtlety of this color's natural variation to full expression. As a durable flooring material, taiga handles daily residential and commercial foot traffic without surface compromise, and Marmoleum's natural antibacterial and anti-static properties make taiga suitable for healthcare, food service, childcare, and education environments. Taiga is 100% waterproof and suitable for wet-area applications in bathrooms, kitchens, and commercial wet zones.
Forbo produces taiga from natural raw materials using a carbon-neutral manufacturing process, making taiga a floor choice that genuinely embodies biophilic design values from the inside out — natural in origin, natural in color, and natural in ecological footprint. At Yaletown Floor, taiga is available as part of the complete Marmoleum Solid Concrete collection, with samples and specification support available for any project.
