Overview

Berber Cork Flooring

The look and softness of Berber carpet, rebuilt in natural cork: warm, quiet, and hypoallergenic, without the dust and dander that carpet collects. Berber takes its cue from the classic looped carpet it is named after. The natural cork decor carries that same flecked, textural pattern, so a room reads soft and chic underfoot, but the surface wipes clean instead of trapping hair, dust, and other small particles. If you love the carpet look but not the upkeep or the allergens, this is the trade you have been waiting to make. Each plank is a full 1/2 in (12 mm) thick, built in three layers: a 1/8 in (3 mm) natural cork wear surface over a 1/4 in (6 mm) E1 class high density fiberboard core, with a 1/8 in (3 mm) cork underlay already attached. That sandwich is what gives the floor its footing: the rigid core keeps the Uniclic click joints tight, while cork above and below cushions every step and damps sound in both directions, down through the floor and up through the ceiling. Cork's cellular structure makes it a natural insulator against both noise and temperature swings, so the floor feels warm in winter, helps keep unwanted heat out in summer, and can trim heating and cooling bills. The resilient, low slip surface is forgiving on joints, which makes it a favorite for seniors, kids, and anyone dealing with arthritis or joint pain. It floats over the subfloor with no glue or nails, and the factory finish (a high resistance Natural Shield water-based polyurethane) is stain resistant and easy to maintain.

Why this floor

Impact Insulation Class IIC 55, measured on 5.5 in concrete without a suspended ceiling, plus 19 dB impact noise reduction to ISO 140-8.
Full 1/2 in (12 mm) construction: 1/8 in (3 mm) cork top layer, 1/4 in (6 mm) E1 class high density fiberboard core, and a 1/8 in (3 mm) cork underlay attached, so no separate underlayment purchase.
Industry-leading Uniclic click lock profile for a tight, floating, DIY-friendly installation.
Rated Domestic class 23 and Light Commercial class 34, backed by a 10-year residential wear warranty, a joint integrity warranty, and a lifetime structural warranty.
Made with formaldehyde-free adhesives; naturally anti-microbial, so it resists insects, mold, and mildew.
Hypoallergenic surface that repels dust, hair, and small particles: a well-being alternative to carpet.

Common questions

How is this floor installed?

It is a floating floor. The 1/2 in (12 mm) planks connect with the industry-leading Uniclic click lock profile, and a 1/8 in (3 mm) cork underlay is already attached to every plank, so you click the planks together over your subfloor without buying a separate underlayment.

Is it a good choice if someone in the house has allergies?

Yes, that is one of the main reasons to pick Berber over the carpet it resembles. The surface is hypoallergenic and repels dust, hair, and other small particles, and cork's natural anti-microbial properties resist mold, mildew, and insects.

Will it stand up to busy rooms?

Berber is rated Domestic class 23 and Light Commercial class 34, so it is built for hardworking homes and light commercial spaces. The Natural Shield water-based polyurethane wear layer is stain resistant and impact resistant, and the floor carries a 10-year residential wear warranty plus a lifetime structural warranty.

How much should I order?

Each carton holds 6 planks and covers 17.44 sq ft. Take your room's square footage, add the recommended 10% overage for cuts and trimming, then divide by 17.44 and round up to the next full carton.

We use this floor in our basement and turns out great. It looks good and feels warm/soft which is the reason we decided to choose this product.

John MacCaughan – July 24, 2018

I was hoping to have something a bit warmer than hardwood flooring and softer in the basement for kids. Our winters are cold. iCork recommended me 6mm cork underlay with 12mm cork floating flooring for my cold basement. I got away with the 12mm floor with 3mm underlay because the total cork in the 12mm plank is HIGHER than the 10mm. 12mm cork floating floor with 3mm underlay has 9mm total cork. The Cork floor has “warm up” our basement.

Patricia Poburan – January 10, 2019

Before the carpet was installed in my basement, we replaced it with this cork floor and turns out great. We did not like the smalls of the old carpet. There is no mildew and musty smells any more with the new cork floor. Cork is a good floor for basement. 7 deg INCREASE IN TEMPERATURE in our basement with same baseboard heating system. I have skipped to install the heated floor because it is cork flooring. we LOVE IT! So pretty and warm!! I would recommend this cork floor to our friends.

Bernie Benzing – February 9, 2023

We chose to replace out the bedroom carpets, hallway, and closet for this cork flooring, covering around 700 square feet. After putting it in, we’ve been pretty pleased. Installing it was a breeze. We added the 6mm underlayment between the floor and the subfloor. When snapping the planks together with a tool, you’ve got to be a bit careful, as they cut easily with my chop saw. But once it was all set up, the floor looks awesome and feels really nice to walk on.
