If you are looking for warm flooring with eco-friendly features, go cork! It’s soft like suede, it has the insulating qualities and resiliency of carpet; it’s easy-to-clean and has luxurious appeal with its earthy colors and rich texture. It 100% eco-friendly, as it’s made of tree bark and s acquired by stripping most of the outer bark from the cork oak tree.

In addition to its environmental benefits, there are many practical reasons to choose cork for flooring. The material is waterproof (think of the cork in a bottle), and the natural waxy substance inherent in cork, called suberin, makes it mold and mildew resistant, too. If someone in your family suffers from allergies, a cork floor could provide a soft and warm alternative to allergen-collecting carpet.
