Eternal Material Commercial Sheet Vinyl Flooring by Forbo

It brings concrete, cement, stucco, terrazzo-style pebble, speckled ceramic, grid and stone or travertine visuals to a heterogeneous vinyl sheet with a 0.7 mm clear wear layer and a urethane top coat. The 2 m wide sheet is heat welded at the seams for a continuous, easy-to-clean floor.

How Sheet Vinyl Is Sold

Eternal Material is a 2.0 mm (0.080") vinyl sheet in rolls about 79" (2 m) wide x about 82 ft long, about 60 sq yd per roll. It is cut to the length your project needs and quoted by the square yard. The factory edge is not seam quality, so allow at least 1" for seam trimming at each seam. Give us your room dimensions and we will help you plan roll cuts and quantities.

Because sheet is cut to your order, cut sheet goods are not returnable. Please confirm colors with samples and measurements with your installer before ordering.

Installation and Supplies

Eternal Material is a glue-down floor installed by a flooring professional, with seams heat-welded. Installation supplies are sold only with an Eternal flooring order and are included in your quote.

Specifier Tips

Eternal Material shares its gauge, roll width and welding method with Eternal Wood, so the two collections can be combined in one project, for example a concrete look in corridors and a wood look in offices or lounges. Lighter cements and stuccos keep large rooms bright, while the darker concretes and graphite stucco hide everyday soil near entries.
