Cork's many transformations have paralleled civilization's progress. From wine stoppers in ancient Rome to anti-vibration joints in a space shuttle's boosters cork's distinctive attributes have added to the quality of our lives. It is epitomized in WE Cork Flooring. Floor tiles of cork were introduced to the world market in 1889. Many millions of square feet have since been installed in this country, and numerous cork tile floors in use for almost 100 years still exist in good condition. WE Cork Floors have been improving the interiors of homes, schools, hospitals, libraries and offices for decades.

Private Residence The advantages of WE Cork floors are enjoyed by people all over the country. The husband who accidentally drops a plate from the couples' china collection in the kitchen, only to have it bounce - unbroken - on WE Cork Flooring... the basketball players whose joints land softly on WE Cork Flooring in their school's gymnasium... the toddler who crawls in his parents living room as WE Cork Flooring insulates him from a cold slab floor... the patient at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota who moves confidently on a WE Cork floor slip resistant wax finish... and the librarian at the Los Angeles library who appreciates the quiet in the Popular Reading Room as the sound of footsteps is absorbed by WE Cork Flooring. When using WE Cork Tiles or WE Cork Planks, the design possibilities are limited only by your imagination. Whether you are using WE Cork Planks in a herringbone pattern or combining all three shades of WE Cork Tiles to create your own style, your floor is certain to be unique & comfortable.

Our superior quality cork floor tiles consist of various sizes of cork granules compressed together with special binders under very high pressure ensuring that they will withstand the intensive wear of a floor covering. Dayton Art Museum - Dayton, OH A cork floor not only offers natural charm but also provides great comfort to the feet and legs. It creates a very quiet space and provides a much appreciated insulation for both cold and warm climates. Unlike most modern floor coverings our cork floors can be refinished to look like new, anytime.

Between 1978 and 1979, the world famous Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota installed approximately 70,000 sq. ft. of our waxed cork floor tiles in their new extension. They have previously used cork floors in several other parts of their facility. What better endorsement could a product receive!
