Cork Flooring: The
Natural, Renewable Floor NOW with JOINT SHIELD
Quiet, Warm, Comfortable, Durable
If you like
walking barefoot in your home, you'll love
natural cork flooring. Why? Because cork
flooring feels
warm and soft to the feet. It's
quiet, clean
surface is also very durable. And
it's formaldehyde free!
cork is firm
but not bouncy. If you drop a dish on it, the
dish will not break, but will leave a small
dent. Within a few hours the dent vanishes due
to its incredible resiliency. It's great
in kitchens and playrooms.
Cork flooring
has come a long way since it was invented more
than a hundred years ago. Today, cork flooring
is much tougher, more attractive and
easier to install. Properly cared for,
a cork floor should last for decades. Prices
are comparable to hardwood flooring.
What
makes it so durable? In the old days
they used wax and oils. Today cork is
manufactured with an exceptionally smooth
surface and covered with multiple layers of UV
cured acrylic which will withstand almost any
abuse from kids or pets. It's so durable it's
backed by a 15 year wear warranty.
What makes cork so
special? Here a few of its amazing qualities:
-
Highly compressible and resilient

Excellent thermal and sound
insulator

Lightweight and buoyant
-
Warm to the touch
