How should a cork floor be treated?

Cork is a natural and aesthetically pleasing material that requires superior protection to facilitate daily maintenance and ensure its longevity. However, unlike wood, cork is flexible and slightly soft. To enhance its hardness and waterproofness, it is recommended to use a high-quality floor varnish or oil.

The finishing products used to treat cork can vary depending on the brand and personal preferences. Varnish provides increased resistance to abrasion, stubborn stains, moisture, and premature wear. On the other hand, oil offers a warmer tone while providing excellent protection against moisture and wear, making the surface easy to restore.

In either case, the cork floor will be easy to maintain with the cleaning products recommended by the manufacturers. It is essential to carefully read the manufacturer's instructions and follow best practices to ensure successful and long-lasting application of the finishing product on the cork floor.
