Enjoy the benefits of eco-friendly cork flooring

 
While cork flooring has been around for years, it's rapidly returning as one of the most popular floor coverings. A frequent material in houses in the 1920-1940s, cork flooring was put aside by the rise in synthetic floor options such as vinyl and laminate. However, cork flooring is the ideal long-lasting answer for today's more environmentally aware homeowners. Find out if cork floor tiles are the perfect selection for your home.
 

The advantages of cork flooring

 
In addition to being one of the more comfortable and quieter underfoot products for your floors, there are countless advantages you'll enjoy when you opt for cork floor tiles

Environmentally friendly
Cork flooring is a superb eco-friendly option made with natural materials and minimal processing, leaving a tiny carbon footprint.

Sustainable
Cork is tree bark gathered from cork oak trees in the Mediterranean once they reach 25 years old. It's only collected every 8-14 years from the tree, making cork one of the more sustainable constructed materials available.

All-purpose
Cork flooring tiles are easy to install and can be used on your walls in every room for a beautiful interior look. Cork is available in many designs, rolls, planks, and tiles to fit your needs.

Waterproof
Cork is by nature waterproof, anti-mold, and anti-fungal, making it a perfect kitchen or bathroom floor choice.

Heavy-duty
While cork kitchen flooring can be vulnerable to divots and scratches, it can last 40 years or more with reasonable care and maintenance.

Cork

 
Many people think of cork as a relatively new and possibly unreliable option particularly as a surface flooring material. And yet, there are examples of Cork flooring in public buildings that were installed over 100-years ago and are still in use today. The Library of Congress in Washington, DC is one excellent case.

New finishing techniques and improved technologies have revived interest in cork over the past decade. Cork floors combine the best characteristics of hard surface and soft surface flooring. Cork is 100% natural and biodegradable, originating from the bark of the cork oak tree. The cork is harvested for the first time when the tree reaches the age of 25, after which it is carefully removed by hand once every 9 years without damaging the tree. Architects and designers are increasingly turning to natural and ecological materials and finding new discoveries and applications.

Cork is more than just a beautiful floor

  • Softer than wood and harder than carpets, the perfect mix to absorb heel strike impacts, relieving leg and back stress, but stable enough to help the foot impulse and decrease the walking fatigue
  • Cork’s natural properties make it an excellent sound absorber. Cork floors reduce noise transmission between and within rooms, creating a quieter and peaceful environment
  • The unique thermal insulation features of cork provide an optimal floor temperature all year round, assuring a more warm and comfortable ambiance with energy cost savings.
  • Cork floors are very comfortable to walk on due to cork´s natural and inherent flexibility providing a unique comfort in movement. Even when walking barefoot, a sense of cosiness is felt
  • Cork floors have the ability to bounce back from hard impacts, which makes them very robust and increases the life span of the flooring
