- Resin – Another binding agent that provides strength and flexibility
- Cork flour – made by grinding the bark of the cork oak, which is grown around the Mediterranean. Bulletin Board and Corklinoleum

- Jute – to provide a natural backing to the floor covering
- Linseed oil – used especially in linoleum, it optimises the oxidation process. Obtained by pressing the seeds of the flax plant.
