Environmentally-Friendly Flooring for Kalama

Bamboo Floors

Floor Coverings International® carries bamboo flooring, which is another flooring option that is gaining in popularity. Bamboo flooring is manufactured from compressed grass, creating a floorboard with a hard surface that is high-strength, easy to clean and easy for our team to install. It is an environmentally friendly flooring material since bamboo grows to maturity in just a few years and can be harvested again quickly. Our flooring specialists can show you bamboo flooring that looks good in your home regardless of decor.

Cork Flooring

Cork floors are another great environmentally friendly flooring solution. This kind of flooring is made from the bark of the cork oak tree. Because it’s only the bark, the tree itself is not harvested and the bark can grow again, so cork floors are a sustainable flooring material. An advantage homeowners have found with cork flooring is that it has antimicrobial qualities that can decrease allergens and it repels insects. Cork flooring is typically sealed, which makes it easy to clean. It can also be painted or stained, which means you could put it in any room. The cork flooring options we carry at Floor Coverings International® are made to last upwards of 25 years. You can’t go wrong with cork floors.

Linoleum

Another great environmentally friendly flooring option we carry is linoleum, which can be very aesthetically pleasing. Now, linoleum flooring is manufactured from sustainable properties such as:

• Tree resins
• Wood flour
• Pigments
• Linseed oil
• Cork dust
• Ground limestone

The cork dust makes it fire-retardant and the linseed oil makes the linoleum repellant to liquids. At Floor Coverings International®, we have a wide variety of linoleum flooring, so you can find a solution that looks great in your home. You can look at our collection from your own home when we bring our Mobile Flooring Showroom®. Linoleum has become a sustainable flooring product, and since it comes in a large selection of different styles, many homeowners have been drawn towards it. The linoleum flooring we carry is built to be sturdy and can endure the activities of everyday use.
