Cork flooring: natural comfort and style for your home

Cork flooring is one of those rare materials that balances comfort, style, and environmental responsibility all in one. It feels soft and quiet under your feet, adds warmth to your space, and brings a natural look that’s easy to love. Whether you’re updating your office or transforming your home, cork delivers functionality without sacrificing design. At Fenway Floors, we offer top-quality cork products, expert guidance, and full-service installation to help you get the floors you’ve been dreaming about.

 

Here’s what makes cork flooring such a standout choice.

How cork flooring is made

Cork flooring comes from the bark of the cork oak tree, which is mostly grown in the Mediterranean. The tree is never cut down. Instead, the bark is carefully stripped every 9 to 12 years, making cork one of the most renewable flooring materials available. After harvest, the cork is ground into small pieces, mixed with resin, and compressed into sheets. These sheets are baked and then sliced into tiles or planks.

 

Most cork flooring has a top layer of cork veneer and a protective finish, often made of polyurethane or a water-based sealant. This finish helps it resist stains and moisture while keeping the soft, cushiony texture that cork is known for. You’ll also find floating cork floors that click together over underlayment and glue-down options for a more permanent install.

 

The result is a floor that’s soft, flexible, and full of personality.

The benefits of cork flooring

Cork might not be the first flooring material that comes to mind, but once you understand its benefits, it quickly rises to the top of the list.

 

  • Natural insulation: Cork has millions of air pockets trapped inside its structure. This makes it a natural insulator, keeping your rooms warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
  • Comfort underfoot: It’s soft and springy. If you spend long hours standing while cooking or working from home, cork flooring gives your joints a break.
  • Sound-absorbing: The same air pockets that insulate also reduce noise. Cork floor tiles are great for bedrooms, offices, and multi-level homes.
  • Eco-friendly: Cork is a sustainable resource because it's harvested without harming the tree. Most cork floor tiles are also recyclable and biodegradable.
  • Hypoallergenic: Cork repels dust, mold, and mildew, making it a great option for allergy-sensitive households.
  • Durable and resilient: With the right finish, cork flooring resists scratches, moisture, and dents better than you’d expect. It naturally bounces back from furniture imprints and foot traffic.
  • Design-friendly: From natural, earthy browns to sleek gray tones, cork comes in a wide variety of finishes, textures, and patterns to suit your personal style.

 

It’s the kind of flooring that feels good on your feet and good for the planet.
