Was looking for an ideal flooring system, this is a dream come true option, because I'd like to install in floor heating systems with it, thanks for drawing attention to such a wonderful flooring option that is sustainable and beautiful- can't go wrong! :)
would cork floors be advisable in kitchens and bathrooms as well? I am planning on using both cork floors and earthen floors in my new home construction, but don't know if that would function together.
If you spill any water on it, it will shrink like a sponge ... Bathroom - absolutely not due to water exposure ... kitchen- high traffic area but doable.
Well 100 % sustainability would mean cutting cork from tree and placing on floor with no other process. The enormous amounts of polyurethane. skim coating, subflooring. contact cement, etc, would make cork flooring far from being 100% sustainable.
