Cork-popping success
The U.S. Home Show has seen massive interest in the cork flooring exhibition at this year’s event, where a mobile design exhibit has proved very popular.
The News &Observer noted that, of all the exhibitors at the event, cork flooring was one of the products which really made a big impression.
Joyce Clark Hicks, journalist at the publication, stated: “One of the year’s hottest trends involves cork flooring. It’s environmentally friendly, hypo-allergenic, durable and mold- and fire-resistant.”
Cork floors previously seemed confined to the past but the attractive appearance of the flooring is bringing it back to life.
The decision to use cork flooring as part of the Home Show’s large design exhibit illustrates the recent advances that have been made in the appearance of cork flooring.
While the practical attributes of cork have never been disputed, the appearance previously left much to be desired, however modern products come in a beautiful range of shades.
From light honey tones to darker chocolate hues or pure vanilla shades there is sure to be a perfect option for any design scheme so it’s no wonder cork flooring proved so popular at the Home Show.
