Overview

Special Materials Required: Glue down flooring tiles require the use of Wakol D3540 cork adhesive and enough Loba 2K polyurethane to achieve two (2) coats of finish. Must Read Glue Down Cork tiles

Umber Cork Glue-Down Flooring

A 1/4 inch (6 mm) Swiss-made cork tile in a deep umber tone, glued straight to your subfloor for a quiet, commercial-grade surface.

Umber takes its name from the classic earth pigment, and the tile wears it well: a rich, shaded brown face of natural cork veneer, 0.028 to 0.031 inch (0.7 to 0.8 mm) thick, protected by a HotCoating wear layer with a high resistance matte finish. Each tile is a clean 23 5/8 x 11 3/4 inch (600 x 300 mm) rectangle with a square, straight-cut edge and no bevel, so the finished floor reads as one continuous surface rather than a grid.

Because it is a glue-down tile, the whole 1/4 inch (6 mm) of cork bonds directly to the subfloor with Wakol D3540 adhesive, then gets sealed on site with two coats of Loba 2K polyurethane. The result is a permanent, water-resistant installation that recorded 0 percent swelling after 24 hours in water testing.

Underfoot, this is cork doing what cork does best. The cell structure gives you a resilient, low-slip surface that is easy on knees and joints, cuts impact sound transmission by 18 dB, and holds warmth in the room (thermal resistance of 0.080 m2 K/W). It is rated for commercial class 32 duty as well as residential use, and it can go on walls as well as floors.

Why this floor

18 dB impact sound reduction (EN ISO 717-2): keeps footfall noise from traveling through the floor or the ceiling below.
Commercial class 32 and domestic class 23 rated, with AC5 abrasion resistance and suitability for type W castor chairs.
0 percent swelling after 24 hours of water exposure (EN 317), with very good chemical resistance: a water-resistant floor once sealed with two coats of Loba 2K.
Natural cork veneer top layer, 0.028 to 0.031 inch (0.7 to 0.8 mm), under a HotCoating wear layer with a high resistance matte finish.
Thermal resistance of 0.080 m2 K/W keeps unwanted heat out in summer and holds warmth in winter, trimming heating and cooling bills.
No VOC emissions and made with formaldehyde free adhesives; naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to insects, mold, and mildew.
Cfl s1 reaction-to-fire rating and residual indentation of 0.25 mm maximum for a resilient floor that recovers from daily impacts.

Common questions

Can I use this tile in a kitchen or other areas that see water?

Yes. Once installed and sealed with two coats of Loba 2K polyurethane, the floor is water-resistant, and the tile itself tested at 0 percent swelling after 24 hours of water exposure (EN 317). It also shows very good resistance to chemicals, so routine spills and cleaning are not a problem.

Will it stand up to pets and heavy foot traffic?

This tile carries an AC5 abrasion rating with a commercial class 32 durability rating, is suitable for type W castor chairs, and limits residual indentation to 0.25 mm maximum. The surface is impact resistant and resists scuffs and stains, so busy households and commercial spaces are both within its rating.

How is it installed?

It is a permanent glue-down installation: each tile is bonded to the subfloor with Wakol D3540 cork adhesive, then the finished floor receives two coats of Loba 2K polyurethane. Plan on a 5 percent overage when ordering; each carton of 14 tiles covers 27.13 sq ft.

Can I install it on walls too?

Yes. This tile is approved for both floor and wall installation, and the same 18 dB sound reduction and thermal resistance that quiet a floor also help on a wall.
