Cork flooring: sustainable comfort and style for your home
Are you looking for flooring that’s warm, quiet, and eco-friendly? Cork flooring might be the perfect fit. It’s not just another trend—it’s a smart choice for homeowners who want durability without sacrificing comfort. Whether you're updating a single room or remodeling your entire home, cork flooring offers a natural look, resilience underfoot, and excellent insulation. Plus, it’s made from sustainable materials, so you can feel good about your decision. At CarpetWorks, we carry a wide selection of high-quality cork floor tiles at prices that won’t break the bank.How cork flooring is made
Cork flooring starts with the bark of the cork oak tree. Unlike hardwood, the tree isn’t cut down. Instead, the bark is carefully harvested every nine years, allowing the tree to keep growing. This makes cork one of the most sustainable flooring options available.After harvesting, the cork is ground up, mixed with resins for strength, and pressed into sheets or planks. These are then baked to create a durable, cushioned surface. Some cork flooring comes in its natural state, while others feature high-quality finishes that mimic wood, stone, or tile. No matter the style, all cork flooring maintains its signature softness and insulation properties.

Benefits of cork flooring
Cork flooring isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s packed with practical benefits that make everyday life more comfortable.- Soft underfoot: Cork has a natural springiness, making it easier on your feet and joints than traditional hardwood or tile. It’s a game-changer if you spend a lot of time standing in the kitchen.
- Warm and insulating: Cork naturally holds in heat, making it a cozy option for colder months. It also absorbs sound, reducing noise from footsteps and furniture movement.
- Eco-friendly: Because cork trees continue to grow after harvesting, this flooring is a renewable resource. Plus, many brands use low-VOC adhesives and finishes, keeping indoor air quality high.
- Mold and mildew resistant: Unlike carpet, cork flooring doesn’t trap dust or allergens, making it a great choice for allergy sufferers. Its antimicrobial properties also help prevent mold growth.
- Durable and self-healing: Thanks to its flexible structure, cork flooring can bounce back from minor dents and scratches. Some products even have a protective wear layer to resist spills and stains.
