      Cork is an increasingly popular flooring option.

    • Not only is it beautiful, it comes in a wide range of patterns and colors (figure A) and is also extremely durable.

    • Natural properties inherent to cork make it impervious to liquids (figure B).

    • Cork's bounce-back properties provide resilience under pressure.

    • Common insects, including termites, won’t go near it.

    • Cork flooring also has remarkable soundproofing and insulating properties making it an ideal choice for the ground floor.

    • Cork is easy to install (figure C) and a great value – it can be less than half the price of hardwood flooring.

    • Best of all, because cork is harvested from the bark of cork trees, it's environmentally friendly.

    So the next time you need flooring, consider cork (figure D). You'll have lots of reasons to celebrate.
