What is a cork floating floor?
Cork floating floor is a powerful, durable floor system made of cork boards that block without glue. Made of oak cork cortex, Cork gains popularity in construction as a renewable and sustainable source with a small carbon footprint. In addition to its "green" properties, Cork offers a number of advantages that include comfort, durability, exceptional insulation and easy maintenance.
The boards used to create a cork floating floor usually measure one leg by three feet long and consist of three layers. The upper layer is made exclusively from a cork with a high density and has several coats of acrylic surface treated UV. The middle layer is made of waterproof fibrous boards of the outer stage and includes special Clica technology for tongue and groove, which ensures that the floor safely fit together without the need for adhesive. The lower layer is connected by a cork bedrock that reduces noise. The boards can be selected in the aroshAh of colors and patterns.
Cork Floating Floor will reactoverstate to fluctuate temperature and humidity by extension and contractual contract. The use of a humidifier to maintain a relative 50% humidity can maintain the visible effects of these changes to a minimum. Matures are recommended for use in entrances, sinks and other places that can attract water. The bathroom and other areas with highly concentrated humidity are not recommended for bathrooms or other areas.
Cork is made up of millions of cells in the shape of a prism filled with gas similar to air, so it has a unique structure that makes it particularly beneficial when used for the floor. It is one of the most effective insulation materials that offers thermal insulation and sound reduction. Its elasticity offers a comfortable pillow that gives compression and bounces back relatively quickly, resulting in minimal residual indentatine. Cork naturally repels insects and thermites, is hypoallergenic and has antimicrobial hairThose that resist mold and molds. It is also a fire resistant.
Cork floating floor is low maintenance and requires regular sweeping or vacuuming. Occasional polishing with hardwood cleaning agents can remove small scratches and revive the surface. To protect the floor, spills should be immediately cleaned and a tape or glue should never be used on the acrylic surface. When the cork floating floor begins to show signs of wear, it can be specified with a new coat of acrylic lacquer to look new again and extend its life.
