FORBO AND IOBAC JOIN FORCES ON ADHESIVE-FREE
INSTALLATIONS With research indicating that the embodied carbon of buildings accounts for 11% of global annual emissions, the call for solutions that facilitate material reuse and waste reduction has never been stronger.
Recognising this importance, Forbo Flooring Systems has approved IOBAC MagTabs as an adhesive-free method of installing its high-quality commercial Allura Flex Luxury Vinyl Tile and Tessera carpet tile ranges.
Angus Fotheringhame, general manager, UK & Ireland, Forbo Flooring Systems, said: “As part of our mission to create better environments, we focus on advancing products and solutions whose life cycles comply with the circular economy model.
“Our Back to the Floor recycling programme is an established installation waste take-back scheme, and Forbo is an active participant in the EU-funded Circular Flooring Project investigating recycling methods for post- consumer vinyl waste.
“IOBAC MagTabs are the perfect complement to our Fast Fit adhesive- free product range. These adhesive-free

and easy way to renew bathroom interiors. With fast installation and easy maintenance, the panels can withstand humid and moist environments, making them perfectly suited for bathroom and wet room use.
Scott Arundell, regional sales director UK & Ireland, said: “The Wall&Water range is a clever solution to creating a modern high-luxury look not just in bathrooms, but anywhere that might benefit from a decorative wall finish that’s waterproof, UV-resistant and easy to maintain. We’re delighted to partner with the UK’s largest distributor of decorative surface in IDS to provide easy and fast access to this easy to install panelling system.”
methods enable the floorcovering to be easily removable with no residue or contamination, making them ideal for reuse or “clean” recycling.”
Hard to Shift, Easy to Lift
Magnetic on one side and dry- tack adhesive on the other, MagTabs can be used to install a wide variety of floorcoverings to metal raised access floors and IOBAC’s magnetically receptive range of underlays and resins.
2-Dimensional Hold: The tabs not only hold flooring tiles vertically to the subfloor, but also interlock them horizontally for unrivalled 2-dimensional hold.
Dual Grip technology: MT4+ MagTabs incorporate IOBAC’s patented Dual Grip technology which combines dry- tack adhesion with magnetism for phenomenal grab in the highest of footfall areas.
Yet when the time comes to uplift flooring, the floor tiles can be removed cleanly and easily for reuse or recycling, with the subfloor left contamination-free and ready for the
next flooring installation straight away. Excessive subfloor remediation costs are eliminated.
Ian Spreadborough, co-founder and director of IOBAC commented: “The installation method sometimes gets missed in the conversation on flooring circularity, so we are very pleased to be collaborating with global leader Forbo Flooring Systems to offer a holistic solution.
“Specifying Forbo flooring products with IOBAC MagTabs represents a sustainable choice, that is not only beneficial to the environment, but that also offers design agility and operational cost benefits.
We’re seeing a marked increase in specifiers choosing adhesive-free as the better way to install flooring as a result.”
