Salami Cork Flooring
The beloved chunky cork look, refined in clean gold oak tones: a 12 mm floating plank that is striking to look at and easy to live with.
Salami takes the classic chunky cork pattern that has drawn so many people to cork and reinvents it. The strong dark patterning is gone, and the old peach hue has been replaced by warm, clean gold oak tones. The result is a floor with real visual texture that still reads calm and inviting in a room.
Each 900 mm x 300 mm (35 7/16 in x 11 13/16 in) plank is a full 12 mm (1/2 in) thick: a 3 mm natural cork top layer over a 6 mm E1 class high density fiberboard core, with a 3 mm cork underlay already attached. That triple-layer build is what gives the floor its quiet, cushioned feel underfoot, and the high resistance water-based polyurethane wear layer keeps the surface stain resistant and easy to clean.
Planks click together with the industry-leading Uniclic profile, so the floor floats over the subfloor with no glue and no nails. It is rated for above grade, on grade, and below grade installs, which means bedrooms, living rooms, and finished basements are all fair game. The pattern has proven so popular that it is also produced as 6 mm and 8 mm glue-down cork tiles.
Cork provides cushioning and thermal insulation. Compare the acoustic test report for the complete floor assembly, and follow the product’s installation and care requirements.
Why this floor
- Impact noise reduction of 19 dB (ISO 140-8) and an Impact Insulation Class of IIC 55 on 5.5 in concrete without a suspended ceiling: real, tested quiet.
- Uniclic click-lock profile: the planks float over the subfloor, no glue or nails needed.
- 12 mm triple-layer construction: 3 mm natural cork over a 6 mm E1 class high density fiberboard core, with a 3 mm cork underlay already attached, so there is no separate underlay to buy.
- Rated Domestic class 23 and Light Commercial class 45, protected by a high resistance Natural Shield water-based polyurethane wear layer.
- Compatible with hydronic and underfloor radiant heating, and approved for below grade rooms like finished basements.
- Made in Portugal with formaldehyde-free adhesives, naturally resistant to insects, mould, and mildew thanks to cork's anti-microbial properties.
- Backed by a 10-year residential wear warranty, a joint integrity warranty, and a lifetime structural warranty.

Important product note
Love the Salami pattern but need a glue-down floor? This exact look is also produced as 6 mm and 8 mm thick glue-down cork tiles, so you can carry the same gold oak tones into rooms where a glue-down installation makes more sense.

Easy enough if you’ve every installed a laminate floor. Bought one of those laminate installations kits form Home Depot. Looks great once it’s done. I haven’t decided if I’m going to coat it with poly as they recommend.

My tenant wanted cork floor in the rental unit. Fast shipping! I received the cork flooring in 5 days and cork flooring arrived in great condition. We allow the cork to acclimate for two days. It was easy to install. My tenant moved in in two weeks. She is thrilled, and it looks beautiful.

Product came in as expected and in good condition. No damage. Installed in kitchen with 2 coats of polyurethane to seal seams. Looks good, Recommend that you follow instructions about taking product from several cartons for color match. Product is not as hard as regular hardwood flooring.

We used this floor in our living room remodel and we love it. Whenever people come in, they comment on how beautiful the cork floor is. It’s very unique, eco-friendly, and very soft to walk on. So far maintenance has been easy.
