Quadro-B Cork Flooring

An 11 mm Swiss-made floating cork plank: 3 mm of genuine cork underfoot, 18 dB of impact sound reduction, and a Uniclic click-lock system rated for heavy commercial traffic.

Quadro-B is a full-thickness floating cork floor built in Switzerland to a simple recipe: a 3 mm natural cork wear surface bonded to a 6.8 mm E1 grade moisture-resistant HDF core, finished with a 1.2 mm agglomerated cork backing. That three-layer sandwich adds up to 11 mm (7/16 in) of plank, in a generous 900 mm x 305 mm (35 7/16 in x 12 in) format.

Cork's closed, air-filled cell structure is what you feel every day. The floor stays close to room temperature year round, so walking barefoot in winter does not mean cold feet, and the surface remains permanently elastic, absorbing footfall instead of echoing it. An 18 dB impact sound reduction rating makes it a quiet choice for bedrooms, upper floors and active households.

Despite the soft feel, this is a hard-wearing floor. The HotCoating wear layer with a high resistant Natural Shield water-based polyurethane finish carries an AC5 abrasion rating and a class 33 commercial durability classification, alongside class 23 for domestic use. An antimicrobial layer protects against mould and mildew, and cork itself is naturally self-extinguishing when exposed to flame.

Because it installs floating with the Uniclic click-lock profile and is approved for above, on and below grade, Quadro-B works in basements as readily as main floors, and it is compatible with hydronic and underfloor radiant heating.
