Cork Tile Flooring
Cork is a great choice for flooring, and is
rapidly gaining recognition
as one of the leading alternative types of
flooring
   
Cork tile flooring has benefits, such as
insulation against noise and temperature.
Cork tile flooring is considered the perfect
flooring solution because it is easy to
maintain, pleasing to the eye, comfortable
to walk on, soft and warm, keeps the noise
out, insulates against temperature, and yet
is rough and tough.
Cork flooring offers several outstanding
benefits to homeowner looking for something
new and exciting in their home. The
durability of cork flooring is appealing to
most homeowners. High heels and furniture
can do no damage! When cork is subjected to
pressure, the gas in the cells is compressed
and volume reduces considerably. When
released from pressure, cork recovers very
rapidly to its original shape. Cork is
remarkably resistant to wear
Natural cork is a fire inhibitor, not
spreading the flame, does not release any
toxic gases on combustion, cork is
antimicrobial and insect repellent. Even
termites are unwelcome. The suberin, the
inherent substance of cork, is a natural
insect repellent
Perhaps the most valuable asset of cork
flooring is the ease of maintenance.
Sweeping and mopping will be the usual
maintenance. Your floor will last for
several decades.
