Golden Beach Cork Glue-Down Flooring
The original cork colour in a solid 8 mm tile so dense you can sand and refinish it, again and again.
Golden Beach is cork the way people first fell in love with it: a warm, golden agglomerated grain that has stayed in style through the ages. Each 610 mm x 305 mm (24 in x 12 in) glue-down tile is made of dense natural cork from Portugal, finished in a high resistance super-matte wax that keeps the look natural rather than glossy.
What sets this tile apart is what is underneath. The pattern is "massive": the same dense cork grain runs from the top of the tile to the bottom, with no veneer layer to protect. That means Golden Beach can survive a full sand and refinish, something very few cork tiles on the market can claim. Few floors will ever need it, but with this tile it is always an option.
These tiles are rated for residential and light commercial interiors. Follow the adhesive, substrate and finishing requirements for floor, wall or ceiling installation.
Why this floor
- Massive construction: dense cork grain identical from top to bottom, with no veneer, so the surface appearance stays the same no matter how deep a sanding goes.
- Refinishable, and it can withstand a full sand and refinish if ever needed, a rarity among cork tiles.
- Impact sound reduction of 24 dB keeps noise from travelling down through the floor or up through the ceiling.
- Rated Commercial class 32 and Domestic class 23, backed by a 10-year residential wear warranty, joint integrity warranty, and lifetime structural warranty.
- Water-resistant, stain resistant, and easy to clean; the surface resists scuffs and impacts.
- Made with formaldehyde-free adhesives. Review the emissions test documentation and follow the product’s care instructions.
- Review the selected product’s emissions documentation and cleaning requirements.

Joy Shultz –
Put this in a master bathroom. Installation was easy. I have plywood subfloor. I didn’t have any problems as I was careful not to use too much adhesive, just a VERY light coat on back of cork tile and the ground. The floor is now so warm, that it actually helps make the whole room warm.
RK Hawkins –
The nave of the Church of St Thomas the Apostle in Ottawa has a cork floor which was installed maybe 50 years ago. It is in the form of 5/16x9x9” stick down tiles on concrete. Some of these had perished with use, but surprisingly many still have a lot of use left in them. Cancork worked with me to assure a match with samples which arrived quickly and then shipped enough tiling to replace quite a few broken or heavily worn tiles. I had to cut them to size but this was a breeze on the table saw and I put down the new tiles with PL300. Everyone is impressed with the match and new tiles. Working with sales was very pleasant indeed and I highly recommend this product and this company.
