WHY CORK FLOOR TILES?
Naturally Sustainable Alternative
Cork can be harvested from the same tree for about two hundred years and every
harvested cork tree fixates between 3 to 5 times more carbon. The harvesting is
made with minimal impact on the environment and no trees are cut down to bring
you this product.
Cork is the perfect environmentally friendly, renewable and sustainable material.
Insulating Properties
Because its outstanding insulating properties, cork can help pay for itself by
reducing heating and cooling costs. With over 40 million natural "cushion cells"
per cubic centimetre, cork is a natural sound and thermal insulator. Cork floors
are beautifully quiet and comfortable underfoot, warm and pleasant to the touch.
Because it absorbs vibration, cork dramatically dampens sound in a room and
reduces sound transfer between floors in a home or business.
Health Benefits
Cork is not only naturally hypoallergenic (resists the growth of to bacteria and
fungus), it is also antistatic and won't attract and hold dust and pollen particles
Essential to people suffering from allergies or asthma.
No harmful chemicals are used in the manufacturing of cork floorings. Adhesives
and finishing products used are formaldehyde-free and Volatile Organic
Compounds (VOC) emissions are not detectable.
Durability
In spite of being elastic and resilient, cork flooring is a durable flooring choice
capable of many years of service when properly maintained. Cork is also a nonslip
surface that's highly resistant to liquid penetration.
