Needlefelt Forte sheet

The robust, hard-wearing properties of Forbo’s Needlefelt floors make it ideal for installations that meet high traffic or where chairs with castors are likely to be used, such as in offices or retail establishments. Needlefelt carpet is a cost-effective alternative to conventional broadloom carpet in heavily used areas where a practical and durable textile floor covering is required.

Forte is our premium needlefelt flooring range, offering the maximum comfort that a fibre weight of 750 g/m² brings. The very dense texture, with more than 3 million needle punches per square metre, guarantees a combination of attractive looks and hard-wearing performance.

Forte sheet is available in 25 colours: a palette of commercial, neutral colours and trend-led highlights. 12 colours from the collection are also available in tile format.

Reliable. Recognizable. Practical.
