Como Oak White Cork Flooring
The pale, airy look of white oak, built on a quiet, warm cork plank that clicks together with a tight-locking joint.
Como Oak White has a whitewashed oak-look surface. Each 1235 mm x 200 mm (48 5/8 in x 7 7/8 in) plank is 11 mm (7/16 in) thick, with a 3 mm cork top layer, a 6.8 mm E1 grade moisture-resistant HDF core and a 1.2 mm agglomerated cork backing.
Underfoot, this is where cork earns its keep. Roughly 40 million air-filled cells per cubic centimetre give the floor natural thermal insulation, so it stays comfortable in bare feet even in winter. The same honeycomb cell structure absorbs impact sound (18 dB reduction) and keeps the floor permanently elastic, which is noticeably gentle on ankles and joints.
The surface is protected by a HotCoating wear layer with a high resistance Natural Shield water based polyurethane finish. That protection is rated to commercial class 33 and domestic class 23, so the floor is at home in busy households and commercial spaces alike. Swiss made, and rated for above grade, on grade, and below grade installation.
Installation is a floating click-lock job with the click-lock profile. The joints lock tightly and the click system exceeds European standards for stability, so seams stay tight with no open joints. Use a tapping block during installation for a precise, damage-free fit.
Why this floor
- Tight-locking patented click joints: locking strength tested to ISO 24334 at over 500 kg per linear metre, with no open joints.
- Rated commercial class 33 and domestic class 23 (EN 16511) with AC5 abrasion resistance: heavy commercial durability in a natural floor.
- 18 dB impact sound reduction (EN ISO 717-2) from the honeycomb cork cell structure plus the 1.2 mm agglomerated cork backing.
- Warm underfoot: thermal resistance of 0.108 m² K/W and roughly 40 million air-filled cells per cm³ insulate against cold subfloors.
- Moisture-conscious build: E1 grade moisture resistant HDF core with a 24 hour swelling value under 8% (EN 317), approved for below grade rooms.
- Low emissions in conformity with AgBB, made from cork bark that is harvested without felling or damaging a single tree.
- 15 year residential and 5 year commercial warranty.

Put this down in the cottage great room over the weekend, about 420 sq ft. The 7/16 planks went together with no gaps and the seams have stayed tight. The installer said it was one of the easier ones he’s laid lately.

This went through the cottage great room and the bedroom over two evenings. Warm underfoot and quiet enough that the dog’s nails don’t carry. Would use it again in the bedroom when we get there.

Ordered 20 boxes for the main floor after the sample sat on our counter for a week. The 7/16 planks went together with no gaps and the seams have stayed tight. One box had two bruised plank ends, only one was unusable. No complaint about the floor, only the wait.
