6mm (¼") Glue Down Cork Flooring

Natural Comfort Meets Lasting Performance

Our 6 mm (¼") Glue Down Cork Flooring offers exceptional thermal and acoustic insulation, making it one of the most versatile flooring solutions available. Soft, lightweight, and naturally warm to the touch, cork is hypoallergenic, insect- and fire-resistant, and highly durable—while remaining as easy to maintain as hardwood floors.

Precision Installation for Added Benefits

Unlike floating systems, glue-down cork requires adhesive installation directly onto the subfloor using contact cement. This method is often chosen by skilled installers and professionals, as it provides enhanced stability, superior water resistance, and greater long-term durability. Once installed, the floor becomes a continuous surface with no raised edges, ensuring a smooth and seamless appearance.

Where to Use Glue Down Cork Floors

Because of its resilient and moisture-resistant properties, 6 mm cork glue-down flooring is ideal for:

• Bathrooms & Kitchens – superior water resistance compared to floating floors.

• Mudrooms & Entryways – tough enough to handle heavy foot traffic and moisture.

• Commercial Spaces – including hotels, offices, and retail showrooms, where longevity matters.

• Specialty Applications – RVs, campers, and even as wall tiles for acoustic comfort and modern design.

Key Advantages

• Excellent sound absorption – quieter than laminate, vinyl, or hardwood.

• Natural thermal insulation – reduces heating and cooling costs.

• Comfort underfoot – reduces fatigue and joint strain.

• Long service life – with proper installation and care, cork can last for decades.
