Sof-floor Cork Flooring Tiles
Cork has been in use since antiquity due to its unique properties as a
resilient natural material. These properties make cork an idea choice of flooring material
for real people. The soft feel of cork underfoot makes it a pleasure to walk on, it is
easy on your joints and back as it absorbs the impact of your footsteps. This
softness is ideal for children where falls and spills are a normal part of the day. Cork,
unlike carpet, is non-allergenic and has a natural resistance to mildew, this is a boon to
allergy and asthma sufferers. With our finish it will remain dust, scuff, and stain free
and add economical lasting beauty to your home.
Another outstanding property of cork is its insulating characteristics both acoustical and
thermal. Room noise is muffled and reduced, as the cork tends to absorb sound. Sound from
surrounding areas are not readily transmitted through cork so both airborne and structural
noise are reduced. Cork is warm to the touch, which is something to consider when walking
barefoot in a home night or day. The cellular structure of cork make it an excellent
insulator against both hot and cold that can help reduce heating costs.
In these days of increased environmental awareness, it is nice to know that cork is a
“green” renewable material. No trees are felled to make our product, the cork is
harvested from the bark of an oak tree, in nine years the bark regenerates and can be
harvested again. If the protection of our environment is a concern to you, consider the
