DOWNLOAD INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS or view our Wicanders Cork 2G installation video below. Corktech Benefits - More Than Just a Beautiful Floor Wicanders' Cork technology combined with the natural properties of cork, provides the perfect match between beauty, comfort and durability. Corktech uses an engineered multilayer structure which consists of a quality core layer of cork and an integrated cork underlay: 1) XTRAMATT Protective Surface 2) Genuine cork veneer 3) Agglomerated cork 3.2mm 4) High Density Fiberboard (HDF) with Corkloc 5) Integrated cork underlay 1.2mm Corktech Benefits Silence Natural Thermal Insulation Walking Comfort Impact Resistance Cork acts as a noise buffer between the floor and the rooms underneath because of its acoustically insulating properties - reducing that noisy foot traffic sound up to 53%. And cork easily cuts noise within a room as well. This is especially beneficial in apartments or other areas more susceptible to outer sounds. Optimal floor temperature throughout the year thanks to its ability to hold warmth. It's thermal insulating properties create a barrier between the cold subfloor and the comfortable temperature of your home. And BONUS...we've noticed the added benefit of energy cost savings because of it! Cork provides a unique comfort in movement, even when walking barefoot, due to its natural softness and flexibility. It's also very forgiving on your legs and back, which is why we like to put it in rooms where you may be standing for longer periods of time, like the kitchen. Or "cushy" as we like to call it. Cork flooring has a long life span thanks to its elasticity and compressibility, which allows it to "give" without damaging the structure. It literally springs back from hard impacts! That means Grandma's china has a much better chance of staying intact when dropped. Why Cork? Durability Sustainability Fire Retardant Hypoallergenic Cork has been used as flooring in buildings like the Harvard Law Library and the Library of Congress due to its durability. It resists cracking & scuff marks and is airtight to gas and liquid, yet still breathable. When properly maintained, cork flooring can last 40 years or more! Cork (or more accurately, bark) harvesting is an eco-friendly process that's done without cutting down or destroying a single tree. And there are strict time limits on the extraction period. During its long lifetime - upwards of 200 years - the tree is continually regenerating bark, which makes the cork forest industry an ideal example of renewable production. Cork is also a natural fire retardant thanks to its unique cell structure and waxy, fire-resistant substance called suberin. It gives a very low conductivity to heat. And it burns without a flame and does not emit toxic gases during combustion. Cork is a great option for allergy sufferers because it's naturally mold and mildew resistant due to the waxy substance inherent in cork. AND it's anti-microbial. Cork is a healthy alternative to dust and allergen-collecting carpets.

How to Maintain Your Cork Flooring Wicanders Cork flooring is a cinch to maintain. Simply sweep up any debris or loose dirt before wiping the floor with a damp (not soaking wet) mop or use a vacuum cleaner. For general spills, a damp mop will do the trick.

ShareThis room has already come a long way! We ripped out the carpet, installed hardwood flooring to match the rest of the downstairs, and added a much brighter white paint on the walls. I still need to get that blog post made for you. So, that will be coming soon. My next vision for this room was to add an accent wall with board & batten. Wait till you see the color I have picked out for it. I’m pretty much obsessed with the color I’ve chosen and will be using it in our master bathroom makeover in the very near future. Your first step will be measuring the wall or walls that you’ll be adding the board and batten to. You will also need to figure out if you’ll need to add MDF paneling or not. Our walls are textured (it’s a thing in Arizona), I don’t care for it, but I’ve gotten used to it. I’ve seen some people out here do board & batten without adding the panels for a smooth surface. I personally don’t care for it, it looks unfinished to me. It is a personal preference though and you may not mind it that way, and that’s ok too. For this project the wall we’re DIYing is 13ft. 10in X 9ft. After taking all of our measurements, deciding what thickness we wanted the trim pieces, and spacing we could figure out what we needed for materials. Materials 1x4x10 Primed MDF (10) battens 1x5x8 Primed MDF (20) top trim pieces 4×8 MDF Paneling (5) All purpose Power Grab adhesive Caulk, Paint, Spackle, Sand Paper Tools Tape measure Level Air compressor Stud finder Nail gun we used 1.25 in brad nails One thing that I’m realizing while I’m writing this post for you, is…….I didn’t take enough pictures. Ha, well I need to step up my game with that. I slacked on taking pictures of myself doing the work too. Epic fail on my part! So, back to the steps! You’ll want to find and mark your studs remove baseboard trim if needed (we removed ours) Get the power grab ready and start putting up the MDF panels if you need to do this step. Squeeze the all-purpose adhesive all over the section you’ll be adding the panel to. Once the panel was up we brad nailed it into the studs. Maybe overkill, but my husband insisted on doing this, lol. This part moves pretty quickly. The paneling is up and now we’re ready to add the top trim pieces at the ceiling. I wanted this trim piece thicker than the rest so we went with 1x5x8 boards. Now, this part moves pretty quickly too. We measured and figured out the spacing, made our marks, and started to add the batten boards. Once we had all the boards up and secured we did a little clean-up with the shop vac and I was ready to do the finish work. When it comes to our DIY projects I’m the one that does all the finish work. I think this is why my husband and I make such a good team because we both have strengths when it comes to this stuff and it all comes together. Finishing steps Find and spackle all nail holes + seams that need to be filled Once dried sand and vaccum all dust Caulk all seams and let dry 24 hours before painting (this is one of the most important parts to make everything look seamless Now we get to paint!! This is one of my favorite parts of a project because it all starts to come together! I finally get to share with you the color I chose for this wall. I have to give this color inspiration shout-out to Regan over at The Blooming Nest. Everything she does is beautiful so if you’re not already, give her a follow! I know I said it before, but I really am OBSESSED with this color. I knew immediately I needed this color in my life. 😍 What do I love about this color? I love the tone, it’s cool with a little warmth, and depending on the light coming into the room it can appear darker or much lighter. It’s such a neutral color that almost any color scheme will go with it, which makes it perfect to change up decor regularly if you like. So, here she is all done!! I’m so happy with how it came out and it’s exactly how I pictured it. All in this board & batten DIY project came in at just under $200. I think that’s pretty good for adding such a large statement piece to this room. Now to furnish and decorate will be the next step. I’ve created a design board for this room so, I have an idea of what I’d like to do and once it’s done I’ll make sure to share it with you all!! I hope this DIY tutorial was helpful or at least inspires you to tackle some of your own projects. I’d love to hear from you, and what projects you have going, or would like to start. Share
