Environmentally-Friendly Flooring for Washougal

Bamboo Floors

Bamboo floors have become another great option with property owners throughout the country and in Washougal. Bamboo flooring is made from compressed grass to make a hard surface floor. It is durable, easy to maintain and easy for our professionals to install. At Floor Coverings International®, we have a good selection of bamboo floors so that you can benefit from this environmentally friendly flooring option. Bamboo grows fast and can be harvested quickly, which makes bamboo floors a very sustainable alternative. You can ask our Design Associates about our bamboo selection and see what it will look like in your home.

Cork Flooring

Since cork is produced from the bark of a cork oak, it’s very environmentally friendly since it doesn't require cutting down trees. Once it has been harvested, the bark will grow back. They’re antimicrobial, insect repellant and minimize allergens in your home. Although it requires regular sealing, it is fire resistant and simple to maintain, which means it’ll keep in good condition for years to come. Regardless of what interior design your house may have, it can be easily adapted with paints and stains. You can typically enjoy a quieter space, a soft feel underfoot and sturdiness up to 25 years.

Linoleum

Another great environmentally friendly flooring solution we have is linoleum, which can be very aesthetically pleasing. Now, linoleum flooring is manufactured from sustainable materials such as:

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

The cork dust makes it more fire-resistant 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 home. You can view 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 wide range of different designs, many homeowners have been drawn towards it. The linoleum flooring we have is made to last and can withstand the activities of everyday use.
