Cork flooring information

Cork flooring in the kitchen

Cork floor tiles are a natural product that provide warmth, comfort, durability and softness under foot. And now there are lots of colour choices to choose from!

You have your cork coloured or digitally enhanced to suit your interior design project. And you still get all the benefits of cork.

Cork is the best natural insulator known, it will keep your house warm in winter and cool in summer.

Cork is impervious to water making it perfect for bathrooms, kitchens and laundries.

It is easy to keep clean and can be laid in one day! We use non-toxic polyurethanes which are water based to avoid nasty fumes.

Cork is durable – it will last forever – and can be sanded back or maintained by re-glazing the tiles to keep them looking beautiful.

Cork is non-toxic. It is ideal for sufferers of asthma and allergies as it does not harbour dust mites or pollens.

It is warm underfoot. No under floor heating required!

Cork is resilient, so will withstand pressure and bounce back. It does not scratch or mark. It does not stain. It is a brilliant sound and thermal insulator.

Cork is exciting, modern and luxurious. Now with Coloured Cork, you can create floors as varied and unique as your imagination will allow. Be bold, brave and different.

Best of all, the cork trees are not cut down. Cork harvesting is an entirely sustainable product. The outer bark is stripped from the tree every nine years. Cork is 100% natural, renewable and recyclable.
