Composition of Da Vinci Cork Planks

Preferred Manufacturer

3mm wear layer is finished with 5 coats of Top Finish waterbased varnish with corrundum particles in nano dimension. This improved Nanotechnology maintains superior transparency and elasticity. The finish is "Solvent Free".

Uniclic Locking Mechanism - The Uniclic profile has been designed so that during installation the laminate flooring panels can be slotted together either angled or horizontally and without damage. This is very important in areas where angling is either difficult or impossible (i.e. under door frames or radiators).

Why select Cork Flooring?

Cork flooring products are made from all natural raw materials; offering the resilience and excellent performance of cork as an insulator, while providing amazing decorative possibilities. Cork Floors offer a very attractive range of designs, which are the result of marketing research and testing to obtain the highest quality construction and decorative appeal for floors in residential or light to medium commercial applications for the US market.
Our decorative styles create a warm environment, both contemporary and unique that achieves maximum comfort and insulation from noise. The glue less joint systems of the floating planks permits fast and efficient installation of the cork flooring on any level surface at all levels of the home. In addition, by applying a topcoat of urethane after the installation, Cork floors can be installed in kitchens with good performance and protection from moisture.
Cork is a widely applied construction material that has been used for centuries due to its unique natural technical characteristics and surprising decorative appeal. The raw material is obtained by harvesting the cork oak tree bark; with the tree never being cut down. This enables the bark to regenerate itself within a few years. Cork is an ecologically sound material allows for continual harvesting for centuries making it a renewable resource for generations to follow. During the production process of natural cork flooring products, we utilize 100% of the harvested materials with no waste produced.

The Cork Forest
• Cork Oaks grow very slowly.
• A cork Oak can grow to be 200-250 years old.
• The first Cork is peeled at age 20-30 yrs and subsequently every 9-10 yrs.
• Cork Forests cover worldwide an area of 2.5 million ha, of which 1 million is located in Portugal (1/3 of the country). Other countries cork grows include: Algeria, Spain, Morocco, France, Italy and Tunisia.
The Cork Tree (quercus suber)
• Harvest from the beginning of June to the end of August, possible only every 9 years, 20 times all together.
• The first peeling is called the maiden peeling.
• Peeling requires a lot of experience, only specialists are employed.
• Cork is peeled only from the trunk and from branches of a specified circumference down to the thin reddish parent layer, below which new cork is growing (approx. 1.5-4mm per year)
• 20 % of the bark is left intact to protect the tree from drying up.
• After peeling, the cork bark is stored in collecting areas to dry and stabilize for 6 months.

The Advantages of Cork Flooring

Environmentally Friendly- Cork Flooring is produced using all natural cork products which are harvested with no waste materials produced. This results in no damage to the tree or the environment in which it is harvested.
Durability- Cork is remarkably resistant to wear, as it is less affected by impact and friction than other hard surfaces because of it cellular composition. Cork flooring offers a 10 yr. Warranty on structure and finish.
Resiliency- When cork is subjected to pressure, the gas in the cells is compressed and volume reduces considerably. When released from pressure cork recovers quickly to its original shape. Cork floors are gentle on your joints and soft underfoot.
Insulation- Because 90% of the tissue consists of gaseous matter, the density of cork is extremely low giving the material wonderful insulating properties, thermal as well as acoustical. Cork floors are warm and quiet underfoot.
Impermeability- The presence of Suberin, an inherent waxy substance, renders cork impervious to both liquids and gases. As a result, it does not rot and may therefore be considered the best seal available. Cork floors are perfect for residential and light commercial applications.
Fire retardation- A natural fire retardant, cork does not spread flames and does not release toxic gases during combustion.
Hypoallergenic- Cork does not attract dust and consequently does not cause allergies.
Electrically Dissipative- Cork flooring does not produce static electricity making it suitable for rooms with electronic equipment and appliances.
Exact Milling- Cork floors have a UV finish prior to milling that guarantees a seamless varnish coat and a homogenous surface.
Easy to clean- Cork floors can be easily maintained by vacuuming and damp mopping with approved cleaners.
Easy Installation- Cork floating floor panels are easily installed without the use of special tools.
Suitable for Radiant Heating- Cork floating floors are suitable for installation over Hot water radiant heat systems, provided that the temperature does not exceed 81 degrees F.
