Cork Flooring

Cork floors are a smart environmentally friendly flooring solution. This kind of flooring is made from the bark of the cork oak tree. Since it’s only the bark, the tree itself is not used and the bark can grow back, so cork floors are an ideal flooring product. An advantage homeowners have realized with cork flooring is that it has antimicrobial qualities that can minimize allergens and it’s a natural repellent for insects. Cork flooring is usually sealed, which makes it easy to maintain. You can also paint it or stain it, so you could put it in any room. The cork flooring solutions we carry at Floor Coverings International® are made to last for approximately 25 years. You can’t go wrong with cork floors.

Linoleum

Another alternate environmentally friendly flooring solution we carry is linoleum, which can be very aesthetically pleasing. Today, linoleum flooring is produced from renewable materials such as:

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

The cork dust makes it fire-retardant and the linseed oil gives the linoleum the ability to repel water. At Floor Coverings International®, we have a large selection of linoleum flooring, so you can find a solution that looks perfect for your property. You can look at what we have to offer from the comfort of your home when we bring our Mobile Flooring Showroom®. Linoleum has become a great flooring product, and since it comes in a broad range of different designs, many homeowners have been drawn towards it. The linoleum flooring we carry is made to be durable and can endure the actions of everyday use.
