What I was particularly interested in is the compressed vinyl flooring because it uses <em>recycled</em> vinyl materials. I should have been more clear about that point and appreciate and agree with your insights regarding the environmental issues with vinyl. Thanks again for offering your comments. John Jane,

It's certainly the future. Was a little concerned to see vinyl flooring being touted as a GREEN product. Yes, it does last but anyone who has researched the environmental problems created by vinyl would not consider it for their homes especially with the off gassing. Linoleum is the way to go for those who want the toughness and durability and can be found in every hospital because it also repels dirt and germs. The perfect floor. Hope this helps those who truly want to be environmentally friendly. J.H. Dear John,
