Vinyl and linoleum resemble each other and they can very easily be confused. Linoleum is a natural product that was invented in the 1860’s and it dominated the flooring market for more than a century. Then, synthetic fibres appeared and slowly they took over the floor covering market, replacing linoleum almost entirely. Vinyl is made from synthetic fibres. Linoleum is made principally of linseed oil. Actually, the name “linoleum” is a combination of the Latin terms “linum” (“flax” in old English) and “oleum”, which means “oil”. While we’re discussing vinyl and linoleum on this page, we do not sell linoleum flooring. We just want to bring to our customers' attention the differences between these two flooring options. While structurally vinyl and linoleum floorings are quite different, they do share the following common characteristics: both are fabricated in tiles and sheets, they look alike, and they are both sanitary and easy to maintain.
