Manufacturer Description

The cork oak tree is not destroyed and then replanted but rather the bark is trimmed from the tree every 9 years, leaving the tree and the forest undamaged. Its not unusual to have a 200 year old tree still producing cork bark. Cork flooring is actually made from the waste of the cork wine stopper manufacturing process so cork flooring is a recycled product. All pigments, varnishes and adhesives that Globus Cork uses in producing its tiles are water-based, solvent-free and have no VOCs.

Cork is a beautiful natural product and now with Globus Cork's proprietary colouring process, there are so many design options available. Nearly any design that can be done in ceramic tiles can now be done in cork. Globus Cork is unique in its tile size and shape offerings. More than 20 sizes are available as well as custom designs and colours.
