About Cork Flooring
Cork's cellular structure contains millions of tiny air pockets that create natural insulation and cushioning. This makes cork floors warm underfoot even in winter and noticeably more comfortable for standing and walking. The same structure provides excellent sound absorption—a practical benefit for Greater Vancouver condos and townhouses where noise transmission between floors matters.
Modern cork comes in glue-down tiles and floating click-lock planks, with many products including attached underlayment for added sound dampening. While cork is naturally moisture-resistant, it's not waterproof—best suited for living areas, bedrooms, and home offices rather than bathrooms. Cork's antimicrobial properties resist mold and dust mites, beneficial in our humid coastal climate.
JAB Floors stocks Wicanders cork in various colors and patterns, from traditional natural tones to contemporary stained finishes. Cork works beautifully with radiant heating systems, and professional installation is available throughout the Lower Mainland.
