Overview
We have decided to make their “everyday” cork tiles 6mm thick. Because we are dedicated to providing quality cork products to our clients, we have made the decision to continue our favourite patterns in the thicker 6mm tile platform. The Silver Birch pattern has been an outstanding product and continues to sell very well throughout North America.
Our clients have recognised our passion and our dedication to our products and have responded by purchasing record amounts of Forna 6mm cork tiles. We have never experienced such a high-volume of cork tiles being sold in our history. The market continues to astound us with their love of thick, luxury cork products. Because of this support, we continue to work with the 6mm and 8mm thick products despite the fact that our competitors continue to offer 4mm thick tiles as “standard fare”.

Debara Wood –
I am very happy with my choice of cork. It looks terrific and feels so much better and warmer than my previous Lino floors. Thank you all for your great service and informative website.
