You have heard about tiles and marble flooring as they are the most common types of flooring found. But nowadays several other materials are used for flooring which are budget-friendly, durable and look great. I visited one of my friend’s houses and saw that they had done cork flooring and it looks awesome. It is soft, compressed and feels like sheets. Now you might also be wondering what is cork flooring since it is very new so let me tell you everything my friend Rima explained about it.

Cork is a brown substance acquired from the outer layer of the cork oak. Many wine bottles have a seal that is made of cork. In fact you might have also seen the brown board on which notes are stuck with pins. Now the same material is used for flooring as well and hence it is called cork flooring. The flooring is made with cork, bounded with resin and then pressed into tiles or sheets.
Pros and Cons of cork flooringHonestly speaking, cork flooring looks great and has several advantages. But there are some cons for which I am a bit confused whether to go for it or not. I am sharing both with you, please let me know too about your decision:
ProsOne might think that cork flooring requires cutting of trees to a great extent but no. The extraction process does not harm trees
