New Generation Cork, Traditional

Traditional cork floor tiles feature the classic granulated pattern of agglomerated cork, a design with a rich history and the original style of cork tiles available in Australia. Instantly recognisable, its timeless look celebrates the natural beauty and sustainable appeal of cork, making it a perfect choice for eco-conscious spaces.

Traditional cork tiles are made from solid, high-density cork and come pre-finished with an exclusive hot-melt ceramic coating and three coats of a water-based finish for exceptional durability. New Generation Cork tiles offer all the unique benefits of natural cork such as acoustic insulation, thermal insulation, exceptional comfort underfoot, durability, and sustainability.

Highly popular in mid-century modern designs, Traditional cork tiles add warmth and texture to any room. Its enduring charm and versatility make it a favourite for those seeking a classic yet functional flooring option that reflects cork’s natural origins.
