Bris Stone

Bris Stone Cork Flooring

The calm of pale limestone, the warmth of cork: a Swiss-made 7/16 in (11 mm) floating plank that clicks together watertight and cuts impact noise by 18 dB.

Bris Stone pairs a smooth, matte stone finish in pale grey-beige tones with subtle grain and tonal variation, so you get the look of limestone without its hardness or chill. The light, airy palette sits naturally in minimalist, Scandinavian, and contemporary rooms, and works just as well in a modern office or home workspace.

Each plank is engineered in Switzerland as a three-layer sandwich: a 1/8 in (3 mm) natural cork wear surface over an approx. 1/4 in (6.8 mm) E1 grade moisture-resistant HDF core, finished underneath with a 1.2 mm agglomerated cork backing. A HotCoating wear layer with a water-resistant Natural Shield water-based polyurethane finish protects the surface, which is how this floor reaches commercial class 33 durability.

Underfoot, cork's cell structure (roughly 40 million air-filled cells per cubic centimeter) does the quiet work. The floor stays warm in winter for barefoot walking, absorbs echo in open-concept spaces with high ceilings, and remains permanently elastic, which is noticeably gentle on ankles. That shock absorption makes it a favorite for nurseries, bedrooms, and busy family rooms.

Installation is a floating click-lock system: no glue, minimal tools, and the floor can be taken up again if you ever need to. The patented Uniclic profile locks each joint tight and watertight, so kitchens and dining areas that need a wipe-clean, resilient surface are on the menu too.

Why this floor

• Rated for commercial class 33 and domestic class 23 use (EN 16511) with AC5 abrasion resistance: full-strength duty ratings, not entry-level ones.
• 18 dB impact sound reduction (EN ISO 717-2) from cork's honeycomb cell structure, approx. 40 million cells per cm³.
• Patented Uniclic click system with watertight joints and a locking strength above 500 kg per linear meter (ISO 24334), exceeding standard click versions.
• Three-layer build: 3 mm natural cork top over a 6.8 mm E1 grade moisture-resistant HDF core with a 1.2 mm agglomerated cork backing, sealed by a water-resistant HotCoating surface.
• VOC-free and non-toxic: GreenGuard Gold certified, emissions in conformity with AgBB, safe for children, pets, and chemically sensitive households.
• Thermal resistance of 0.108 m²K/W keeps the surface at a comfortable temperature all year, even barefoot in winter.
• Suitable for castor chairs (type W, EN 425) and rated R10 for slip resistance (EN 51130), so it holds up in workspaces as well as living rooms.

Important product note

This floor uses a patented Uniclic click system adapted to exceed European standards: it eliminates open joints, locks watertight, and provides a more secure hold than standard click versions. The trade-off is that installation takes a little more effort, and a roughly 8 in (20 cm) taping block is required to seat the joints without damaging the plank edges. Used correctly, it guarantees a precise fit and keeps the flooring's pristine appearance.
