Forna Golden Beach 8mm Glue Down Tile – It’s a traditional flooring that brings back memories of those lovely summer days on the beach in the Golden Hour. Decorate your space in an elegant and pleasant manner.
Golden Beach Cork Glue-Down Flooring
Warm golden sand underfoot: a classic agglomerated cork pattern, richer and deeper in a full 5/16 inch (8 mm) glue-down tile.
Picture a beach of fine golden sand, so soft it feels like walking on a cloud. Golden Beach was made to bring that feeling indoors. It takes one of the most loved agglomerated cork patterns and warms it up, drawing out the browns and tan shades for a richer, cozier floor.
Each tile is solid natural cork, 5/16 in x 12 in x 24 in (8 x 305 x 610 mm), with square, straight-cut edges.
Because the full thickness is low-density, sound-absorbing cork, no separate underlayment is needed. Millions of air-filled cells in every cubic inch compress under pressure and spring back when it lifts, which is why cork feels cushioned underfoot, shrugs off impacts, and is almost impossible to dent. Those same cells make it a natural sound and thermal insulator: it holds warmth in the room in winter and keeps unwanted heat out in summer.
Check the cork floor’s installation, emissions and maintenance documentation. Follow the cleaning and recoating instructions for the selected finish.
Why this floor
- Full 5/16 inch (8 mm) of 100 percent low-density cork: no separate underlayment required.
- Impact sound reduction of 22 dB (tested at 6 mm); cork layers from 3 mm to 12 mm can mute sound by 10 to 20 decibels.
- Rated Commercial class 32 and Domestic class 23, suitable for residential and light commercial spaces.
- Square-edged, straight-cut cork tiles.
- Cellular structure with millions of air-filled pockets per cubic inch: compresses under pressure, recovers its shape, and resists denting.
- Made with formaldehyde-free adhesives and no VOC emissions.
- Backed by a 10-year residential wear warranty, joint integrity warranty, and lifetime structural warranty.
Important product note
Glue-down tiles are not a finish-and-forget product on installation day: after the tiles are glued down, the whole floor must receive two coats of Loba 2K water-based polyurethane. This on-site finishing requirement applies to all glued-down tiles, including kitchens, living rooms, dining rooms, entrance ways, and commercial spaces. Order the adhesive and polyurethane together with your flooring so the installation is not held up.

Anna Landie –
I love the look of my bathroom cork floor. The variations in the cork tiles make it look more like an exotic wood than cork. This is anything but, and so beautiful.
