Cork Flooring

Before considering this product, it’s important to highlight that cork is no longer in trend and is not recommended.

Cork is obtained from the bark of European Oak trees. Today there are many aesthetic possibilities and formats, without removing its main characteristic of irregular grains, which provide it with beauty and elegance. Cork Floors are treated with either seals or varnishes, which increases its resistance, impermeability, and durability.
