Golden Beach

Golden Beach Cork Flooring

Sun-washed golden cork in a 25/64 in (10 mm) floating plank that clicks together, quiets your rooms, and stays warm underfoot all year.

Golden Beach earns its name. The natural cork face carries light, sandy golds that shift subtly from plank to plank, so the finished floor reads warm and organic rather than repetitive. Because this is real cork, natural shade differences between planks are a normal characteristic of the product, not a defect.

Under that face sits a proper engineered build: a 1/8 in (3 mm) natural cork wear surface bonded to a 15/64 in (6 mm) E1 class high density fiberboard core, with a 3/64 in (1 mm) cork underlay already attached to the back. The surface is sealed with a high resistance Natural Shield water-based polyurethane finish, and the whole plank is made with formaldehyde free adhesives.

The planks join with the industry-leading Uniclic click-lock profile, so the floor floats over your subfloor with no glue and no nails. With the cork underlay built in, each plank arrives ready to install, and the finished floor insulates against both acoustic vibration and thermal swings: it holds warmth in the room in winter and keeps unwanted heat out in summer, which helps trim heating and cooling bills.

Cork's springy cell structure gives you a resilient, low-slip surface that is comfortable for seniors, children, and anyone with arthritis or joint pain. It is also hypo-allergenic, repels dust, hair, and other small particles, and resists stains, making it a well-being alternative to carpet. Rated for domestic class 23 and light commercial class 39 use, it is at home anywhere from bedrooms to a busy home office or small shop.

Why this floor

• Impact sound reduction of 13 dB IIC (Impact Insulation Class) per ISO 717-2 (tested on the 11 mm profile): noise stops transmitting down through the floor or up through the ceiling.
• Full 25/64 in (10 mm) construction: 1/8 in (3 mm) cork top layer over a 15/64 in (6 mm) E1 class high density fiberboard core with a 3/64 in (1 mm) attached cork underlay, so no separate underlayment purchase.
• Industry-leading Uniclic click-lock profile for a floating installation with no glue or nails.
• Rated domestic class 23 and light commercial class 39, backed by a 10-year residential wear warranty, a joint integrity warranty, and a lifetime structural warranty.
• High resistance Natural Shield water-based polyurethane wear layer with a stain-resistant, easy-clean surface.
• Naturally resistant to insects, mold, and mildew thanks to cork's anti-microbial properties; made with formaldehyde free adhesives from a completely natural, recurring, replenishable material.
• Impact resistant and thermally insulating: warm underfoot in winter, cooler in summer.

Important product note

Natural shade differences are visible in Golden Beach cork flooring and are a normal characteristic of this natural material. Expect plank-to-plank color variation, and blend planks from several cartons during installation for the most even overall look.
