I believe the answer is:

linoleum

(Other definitions for linoleum that I've seen before include "Impregnated fabric for the floor" , "Common floor covering, often in kitchen" , "Stiff floor covering" , "Type of floor covering" , "Canvas-backed floor covering" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
