Cork or known as the "green floor" is a miracle material for a number of reasons. The process begins when top layers of bark are removed from living Cork Oak trees. This does not damage the tree and can be repeated every seven to nine years. Since it takes such a short time to regrow, cork is considered a renewable resource for flooring.

Recycled corks from wine bottles can even be made into new flooring. The floors themselves are recyclable once the end of their lifespan has been reached, completing the resource cycle. Once the bark has been milled and refined, recycled cork can be formed into durable sanded, stained, and finished planks that closely resemble hardwood. They are just as easy to install and will last for many years with proper maintenance.

Cork has some additional benefits, too - it naturally muffles sounds, resists pests and moisture, and acts as an insulator. With cork flooring, you can put a stop to echoing sounds or make your workplace a quieter environment without sacrificing modern design. Cork trees naturally produce suberin, a waxy substance that drives away insect pests, stops moisture damage, and protects against normal household spills. By installing cork floors you will save money and the environment at the same time!
